My sickness
« on: September 05, 2017, 02:13:04 AM »
Never thought it would come to this. But just realized I have something wrong. I've went from having one 250r to a garage with 3. Not to mention my back bedroom full of parts. I don't think there is a cure.

I think I might have it to. I don't have many parts, but I'm always looking up stuff and adding to my wish list, and wanting to buy more quads.

There is a 12 step program for this which means your 12 steps closer to buying the next part lol

I've given up looking for a cure and decided to embrace this sickness

It is an expensive sickness. But satisfying at the same time.

It's gotten so bad for me I am already thinking of getting rid of my other hobbies, to fund more R related stuff. I am blowing up Kevin's phone with texts about 250rs. I apologize btw kevin lol.

I have pushed this sickness on to the next generation like a corner drug dealer. My son is ruined now and is trying to get his mother to start a PayPal for him.

Do you guys have enough parts to build up another quad? I'm hoping to get to that point. I'd like to build my wife a R. I got a brand new oem cylinder, a few side covers, a few frames, stock aarms and axle.

It is cool to think about it. You start buying up parts to get stuff for your r. Then next thing you know you have another sitting there in pieces.

In 2012 I was going to throw in the towel, bag my R & store it for good & get a trx450 but when looking for discontinued oem ignition parts on-line I discovered there was forums for the 250R & the rest is history. It's kind of funny though even with all the spare parts I have I still end up buying more parts all the time.
