That removable headlight idea is just genius. I don't think I've seen that on any of the newer quads?
Awesome. I use my 250sx to check wells too, 37 years later.
I miss my 250sx, best bike I've ever had
They forgot about longevity and badassery!
Very reliable for sure. These things will be around for another 100 years. :)
My ol beast is running strong. And looks like it’s 4 yrs old😊
If it ain't a 250r it ain't shet.....
i strongly agree. i hate the water cooling and efi shit. do they realize how big of a money maker simplicity is?
This commercial is trying to sell to a market that never bought it. Nobody used these on work sites.
My older cousin bought one new in 85'... and he still has it.
What was the MSRP back in the day? My guess $2,100
I know the honda big red 350 4x4 at that time biggest baddest workhorse of 1986 was $3,847 which was a shit ton at that time in 2022 dollars is $10,147. Ironically is what you can get a 2022 honda Rincon 675cc 4x4 now
@@josephbaclawski3244 I know the first year Big Red ATC, 82' was about $1650. Not sure on the 85'. An 85' ATC 250R was about $22 or $2300, so less than that I'd guess. Probably right around what you're thinking.
@@josephbaclawski3244 $1760 plus tax. I am not the original owner but the guy I bought my 85 from was a saver and gave me the original bill of sale
@@josephbaclawski3244 $1,968.00 new in 1985. That is equal to $5,450.63 in 2022.
I didnt know about the removeable headlight thats so freaking cool! Dammit i want one so bad!
The perfect mix between sport and utility!
A commercial that makes SENSE to my brain
Bought an 1985 Big Red 250 es when I was 13. I made 3 bucks an hour pouring concrete with my Dad's co after school, weekends and long summer days. Loved that machine. Wouldn't mind having one again. I had a Grizzly 660 for 5 years about 10 years ago. I think I would just as soon get an used Big Red.
My 85 was one of my favorite rides every. Top three.
Still got mine,and glad I do.
I drove the 125M the other day, even posted it to RUclips. I definitely want to buy one now. Would be cool to just driving it around the neighborhood
I love my 1985!
Amazing machines for sure.
Hundreds of years after Armageddon, little gray aliens are gonna find these still operational and have the time of their little gray lives
Probably true, lol...
Grey lives matter
Great once again! Looks like you did a good job digitizing these. Back many yrs ago the capture cards/software could be crap & reminded of that every time I watch one!
I love all 3 wheeler nuts like me
Im Still riding mine around
about to pick one up soon and do snow removal with it this winter and of course some good old off-roading between the projects of Detroit
Have fun!
Boss man riding up like Brad Wesley.
This makes me want to find one for myself!
Great, that's the idea! Good luck!
They are still using the same rear end in the rancher.😂
They really hold onto their past with some parts. Nice to see, really.
@@MacWorthVintageATVs yep, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Man I would have given a kidney for one of these as a kid.
Im from México I have my big red 250 in my ranch Puebla
1:46 that was clearly an up shift... the wrong way
They came with a wheelchair suppliers business card😅
HEY JOE !
Cush job, riding round on a 3 wheeler wearing shiny work boots.
i don't care what anybody says, they could've kept the 3 wheeler as a utility vehicle.
Sounds like Mr Spock
They must’ve been popular with woman too because my ex wife told me that she left me for some guy that had a big red 😂
3.14.22 no war
isnt that the thing that fell over so often that its single handedly responsible for the invention of 4 wheeled ATVs?
No, it wasn’t the machine that fell over, it was the operator.
There was fake news even back in the 1980s. There are tons of 3-wheeled trikes on the highways now with a bicycle tire in the front and 2 car tires in the back that are not falling over. My 1985 ATC250SX is very stable.
@@Cobra37061 the modern trikes are the size of cars and are so ridiculously heavy that they indeed cant fall over
Operater error.. and yes.. because of idiots we now have sweet quads as well.
@@Genesis23OPB Try googling the number of deaths per year on ATVs and compare the numbers by year. There were approximately 250 ATV-related deaths in 1985. There was no significant decrease in numbers after they stopped making ATCs. The number of ATV deaths per year is much higher now than it was for 1985, some years more than 3 times more. The peak years appear to be 2006 and 2007 with more than 830 deaths per year for each of those years. 250 deaths (1985) vs. 832 deaths (2006).
For over 40 years the basic design has not changed... yes reliable but cfmoto will surpass them in both innovation and quality
Cfmoto surpass honda 🤣
No other brand will ever get the reputation that Honda has for reliability. Until I see a cforce run for 40 years, being ridden hard, sank and wrecked, and still run like a top I'm not gonna believe a new Chinese brand will take over Hondas reputation.
😂 ya ok cf moto 🗑
@@liamb.6251 cfmoto isn't a new brand its just fairly new to the US. Only time will tell if they will be as reliable as Honda. Cfmoto does have everyone beat on price with a good quality machine
Funny !
