'86 ATC250R from Portugal

[cfsousa]

Hello all!

I´m Carlos Sousa from Portugal, and I own one Honda ATC250R.

I see many guys around here with ATCs like mine, but here in Portugal these kind of bikes is extremely rare!

If you have got the service manual or repar manual from this model, please contact me becaus I always was interested in having this info about ATC250R.

Ok, that´s all for now!

Best regards for all,
cfsousa

That YTM manual is for a 3wheeler. If it was for a 4 wheeler it would start with yFm. I have downloaded the manuals from Dammit for free. You should be able to as well. Welcome to the board!

Hey, guys!

Unfortunatly I cannot download the Manual to my ATC for free... :(

When I click on the link, I enter one site: www.drivehq.com and I must pay to download the file I need...
:(

Anyone can explain what I must do to have this Manual for free?

Thanks alot for your help!!!

sometimes so many people download from his link that it exceeds his bandwith therefore a donation must be made is it so bad to give the guy $5 for all that he has done for us??:doh: so throw him some coin cheaper then buying one and hell you can print it out if you like!!:hail:

[cfsousa]

Hi there, Tri-Z ripper!

No problem with the amount of money!!! :)

Just don´t have Pay Pal and don´t want to use the credit card in the internet!

But I will do something about this!

I have sometimes paid to download and sometimes not .. like mentioned above depends on how many others have been downloading .. But i just clicked on the 86250R manual .. its only about .36 cents ,, plus maybe a buck paypal fee not sure but if you dont have paypal I can understand not wanting to use a CC for such a small fee ,, I have many of the manuals on my computer but not that one I was going to zip it and send it to you .. maybe someone else can help you out ,,

[cfsousa]

Hello, ang4th!

I think my own ATC250R is the '86 model!!!

Next message I will post some pics of my ATC and maybe you can help me understanding if it is really an '86 model, or an '85 model!

Best regards,

OK, guys, that´s all for now!

I will appreciate your comments!

I will do a complete restauration of my ATC as soon as I get the original parts I need to substitute the non-original ones I have in the ATC!

And, if you can help me deciding what year is my model, I will thank you!

Most probably, I think this is an '86 model... Please confirm!

Best regards to all of you!

Looks Great!! :thumbsup: except for it getting towed around by a 4-wheeler. :bs:

Did you buy it like it is? Never seen radiator shrouds like that before. How arey the attatched?

How does it run? just wondering why it's on the trailer? :shrug:

[cfsousa]

Hello, X053!

Thanks for your comments!

About the radiator shrouds, that´s one of the original parts I will try to find to substitute those I have assembled! These are not obviously original parts!!! In fact, these parts were hand-maded by a friend of mine, because when I bought this ATC around 10 (or more) years ago, it did not have those parts... :(

And I asked a friend of mine to make those parts in fiberglass... He just invented something, and for sure, it looks better with those parts assembled, than without them, believe me! Remember I cannot find any parts for my bike over here (in Portugal)... These kind of bikes (ATCs) are extremely rare over here!!!

But, has I told you before, I will try to find the original parts I need to make an overhaul restauration of my ATC!

The original parts I need, are:
* radiator shrouds
* front light
* rear light
* handlebar...

I don´t remember if I need something else, but I will come back here later on to put this updated!

About your question: "why is it on the trailer?", well, it´s just a matter of economizing the free space I have got in the garage! :)

My ATC runs very nice!!! ;)

I will take a few more pics when I go with it for a ride, ok?

Best regards, and thanks again for you comments!!! ;)
