    The Yamaha Tri-Z was most rare of the 3. All in excellent cond. Definitely hang onto them! Owned an '86 ATC250R bought new end of '86. Sold it in '92 😞. -Ohio

      @Davido50 Рік тому +1

      Tecate was popular. Knew plenty guys had one in Northeast where i grew up. I had new '86 ATC250R bk then. Tecates were faster but Honda had better suspension. Nobody had Tri-Z. Very rare. -NY

    The Tecate was the last of the true man' bikes that will literally kill you if you let your guard down for an instant. I think I would rather ride a bull.

    • @austinATV-ATC
      @austinATV-ATC  2 роки тому

      The Tecate is definitely a unique animal, it lacks torque compared to the other two, but the pipe hits like a freight train. The gearing sucks though, and the suspension geometry is incomparable to the 250R

      @Austin ATV yeah agreed I think Mart Smith was the top Kawaski guy back then? I will still take a 250R over a Tecate any day though! I would like to have a Tecate quad one day, however, just for fun. Had a chance to buy a really clean one for 2000 back in the day before prices went crazy, wish I would have scooped it up.
