Honda Other description

Honda Helix 1988 – Low Mileage (9265) - RELISTED due to non paying bidder (NOTE: I will report all non paying bidders)!

Reason for selling: I bought this bike for my wife but she could not get the hang of it

Honda Helix is known as the most comfortable scooter to ride (250cc).

It has a trunk to carry groceries, etc.

The tires and battery are good (rear tire has a slow leak)

The seat has been recovered.

 The average price for these models is $1000 - a similar model (white) non running just sold here for $500 (for parts?).

 This bike was repainted (red) by a previous owner and the new paint scratches easily.

 I test drove just before this listing; it runs strong. Guaranteed to start, run and drive upon delivery.

 Buyer is responsible for selecting an auto/motorcycle transport and paying all shipping frees (I have been quoted under $400). Guaranteed to start, run and drive upon delivery (for long shipment may need battery recharge). 

 Local buyers please contact me to arrange a test drive (north of Cottonwood).

 Payment by cash, cashiers check or bank certified check (as recommended by Ebay) within 3 days.

A video of this scooter is available on You Tube - title is Honda Helix Red 1988 - Sedona AZ

 

Disclosures: There is a replacement mirror on the left side (wife ran into a bush – the bike was never dropped during our ownership).  There is also a dime to quarter size hole in the left rear turn signal. I didn’t even notice it until the tape covering it came off. I will look for some replacement tape. A plastic trim piece on the right side is broken - temporary repair in place (bondo and black paint).

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Onboard video footage doesn't get a lot better than this: Joey Dunlop during practice at the TT in 1983 onboard a factory Honda RS850R. An 859cc ultra-short stroke V4 Honda that Joey mastered around The Island, later winning the TT Formula 1. Although the 'production' race, the RS850R stretched that to the limit.
