They supposedly can still make competition only 2-strokes, and the motor comes from a cr250.

I personally like the look of 250r plastic, the new 450r type styling just isn't for me.

Service Honda should get some OEM style 250r plastic produced, it would just set off the service honda 250r. But I wont be buying one of those, especially when it's 400ex geometry, and when you can get a REAL trx250r for half the price.

why would they stop makin them in 06. some kind of 2 stroke law?

Enviromental regulations call for reduction in emissions before 2006.

havent heard about it but it might be a hybrid that someone put together,i have an 86 250r stock other than the motor and that baby rides like a dream but it loves chains,ronny

honda should just bring back the original R. it would sell like hot cakes.

dang, one day away from being a year old since last post.

I don't see paying 9000 for that when you can get a aftermarket framed R for 5 or 6 now
