This would be the yeat Honda discontinued their ATC lineup as a result of legal action banning the sale of three wheelers.

The '86 ATC 250R would be the last chance consumers would have to own a piece of ATC history. The 1986 model year was the last production 250R, it was mostly unchanged from the 1985 model. Legend would have it that the combination of a six speed transmission and the 246 cc engine pushed these ATC's to 70+mph, a tribute to marvelous engineering. The newer engine design also proved to be very reliable. Honda's new 250R engine produced more torque than previous engines thanks to a higher compression ratio. Honda redesigned the frame, improved on the suspension once again, and added the liquid cooled powerplant. The 19 model years are what legends are made of. The improvements made for the 1983 250R carried through the 1984 model year as well. There were also minor engine improvements, however these engines were air-cooled. Honda's innovative suspension greatly improved ride quality. The pro-link suspension on this ATC greatly improved the wheel to ground connection when experiencing a bounce or bump. The 1983 ATC250R was ultimately equipped with Honda's infamous pro-link suspension. Otherwise the ATC remained mostly the same.ġ983 was considered to be the start of what ATC enthusiasts call generation two. In 1982 Honda corrected the rear brakes with the addition of disc braking at the rear wheels of the machine. Honda decided to use drum brakes in the rear which was an unfortunate decision by their engineers. Shortcomings for the 1981 model year include the rear brakes on this trike. It was also equipped with a metal fuel tank, which today, gives it a the vintage look when compared to the machines that rolled off the assembly line in later years. The engine was an air-cooled single cylinder.

It featured full suspension which was considered to be leading edge at the time. The 1981 ATC250R was essentially a three wheeler with a CR250 engine.

Anyone who was lucky enough to ride or own the first two cycle ATC knows exactly what that means. This machine was destined to have a lasting effect on the ATV industry in more ways than one. All previous Honda ATC's were equipped with four stroke motors. But the 1981 ATC250R was the first to be released with a two stroke engine. The all terrain cycle had been a popular vehicle in previous years. As a matter of fact, this all terrain cycle improved on excellence in each of its years of existence. The ATC250R did the racing thing quite well. It was designed with the intention of being a racing three wheeler. This three wheeled all terrain cycle was produced by Honda Motor Corporation from 1981 through 1986. Here is a brief ATC250R history lesson that we through together since the Honda ATC250R all terrain cycle revolutionized the off-road industry.
