Supposedly , it jumped time, but I pulled the covers tonight, and it is right on the marks. Has good compression, and turns easily. I am going to fill it with fresh fuel, and see what happens tomorrow morning. I bet I clean the carb, adjust the valves, change the fluids, buy a battery and have it running by the end of the weekend. The guy said , that it was running when he parked it at the end of last season. I spent the evening cleaning it up. Hanging out in the garage working on quads/dirtbikes is where my gearhead addiction began. I felt like I was 14 again.
I spent a lot of time on an ATC 250 R as a kid, fastest thing on 3 wheels back in the day. Man I wish I could go back to those times.
I just watched craigslist until something like that popped up. I was looking to spend around $1500, but I am a sucker for a "mechanics special " No way I was going to drop 8k for something to make rooster tails in my back yard.
