So my son had outgrown his TRX90.

I bought this a few years ago and did a bunch of work on it; new tires, wheel spacers, frame paint, bearings all around, chain, brakes, etc… I had maybe $700 into it and sold it the first day for $1200!

Wanting to move up, the choices were somewhat slim, TRX250X or Raptor 250. I’m a huge Honda whore so the choice to go with the TRX was slightly biased. Off to scour the interweb for the right one…

I found a lightly used 2013 on Craigslist for $1800. Apparently the owner didn’t really know what they’re worth as most 2007 and 2008 models are going for that much. It was way dirty and the owners 15yr old son took a hammer to the muffle to make it sound "cooler"!
