Honda XR 250 for sale

[Ysbytymike]

Since messing up my shoulder in August 09, I've only been out twice on her and both occasions were painful.


Its a 1995 model with electric start. (I believe its an import as these bikes sold in the UK didn't have the button). Not really sure on this but!!

*She's currently taxed and MOT'd
*I've put a new clutch in her a few months ago.
*New battery (less than a month old).
*New 6 day rear tyre
*Almost new AC10 front tyre
*New heated grips (about a month ago)
*Wide footpegs (Imported)
*Lowering link (this alone was £70)

Two known slight problems

1/ When I put the new clutch in, I obviously didn't re-align the kickstart return spring properly. She kicks over fine if needed but the lever doesn't return to top. As the elec start is working fine, I haven't bothered to strip her back down to correct this.

2/ Some times the float bowl leaks petrol on start-up, if she's not been run for a while. I correct this by turning off fuel at tank, then run the bike until the carb empties. No problem after that.
Probably needs to have bottom end of carb stripped to have float chamber sorted.

Looking for around the £1,395 mark

If your interested pm me and I'll answer any queries at that point.

Cheer

Great XR there Mike... and a button. Lets hope it sells quick, the 250 is a storming off roader

Cheers Phil,

Shouldn't have any trouble selling her as their pretty bomb proof as long as you change the oil and filter regularly but that's common sense anyway.

I've seen these things get places with very little effort were the screamers tend to struggle. These old school bikes just seem to have that low down grunt that keeps them moving rather than spinning wheels.
