| option. | | | | go to eBay Motors and in the search bar type "250r |
| My experiences at our local ATV junk yard have | | | | swing arm" it will actually return some results. If I do |
| always been horrible to put it mildly. They usually | | | | not find one that fits my application I might then |
| went something like this. I show up ATV junk yard | | | | type "250rx swingarm" into the search bar this I |
| and go to the counter and ask if they have the part | | | | where the deals are It would be searching for |
| that I'm looking for. In most cases the person behind | | | | misspellings. |

| the piles of rusted out dirty ATV'S. Then after | | | | parts on eBay is to do mistypes or rearrange the |
| searching though dirt and mud for awhile I usually just | | | | name of the ATV you are looking to buy parts for. I |
| give up and go home, but sometimes I do actually | | | | once found a listing for a "r250" Honda that was in |
| find a part that will work. In these rare events I lug | | | | reality a very clean 250r. There's also another small |
| whatever part I feel will work to the counter. This is | | | | tip that I should offer about purchasing used parts on |
| where my trip usually becomes interesting this is | | | | eBay. For instance certain models interchange for |
| where I find out what the junk man thinks these | | | | instance nearly on the parts on an 1984 200x will |
| used ATV parts are worth. Let me tell you this is | | | | interchange with the parts for an 1985 200x. |

| junk man severely over charging me as if this rusty | | | | parts & online schematics this will be vary useful. |
| old part is made of solid gold. This is where I would | | | | Observe the exploded view for whatever used ATV |
| leave the part on the counter and walk out. | | | | part you an are trying to find. Then write down the |
