This is soo Awesome!!!

Still have my 86 Santa brought me. Dad said that was it l walked outside and smiled. FYI I'm older now it sits in garage

Jump out on any beach in America with an ATV nowadays and some cop will chase you down and give you a ticket

I met Dean Sundal many years ago he was the best Honda factory rider cool dude they called him the king of the desert later raced for Yamaha 😊😊😊

200e pulling 30 tons. cool

More dangerous, more real and fun. Gen X knows!

Many a fracture were had!

I got one for my bday in 82, I was 14. Wasn't long before I had cut routes through every greenbelt in the county. Id show up at school on it and chain it to the bike rack then ride it across the county to the skateing rink on fridays, keggers on Saturdays.....gotta feel sorry for kids today.... they have no idea of how fun life used to be.😂

You had to be born to ride these.....many tried but you had to be of a special breed of human.....still got my 83 atc 70 but I've got a 140cc Pit bike engine in it.....its like its on Steroids 😅😅 I'm 50 and it's still gives me a smile

I love these things, push left, go right, cave in your left side ribs!

Can someone say Hospital visit and knee surgery. It’s like a good marriage gone bad instantly. Your so happy one moment then your flipping over or running over your own legs with back tire.

I bought a brand new Honda 250SX back in 1986, I rode that thing for 20 years, always had a blast....had my share of accidents on it but nothing serious, miss having it to ride.

WOW! That was my hubby & me for 4 years when we lived in Alaska (everything but the beach 😂) the 80’s were AWESOME 💥💥💥

I had an 82 250R. It took a beating and kept running. Excellent machine!

I never saw this commercial but I had one and it was very fast and fun and let me tell you I had way more air in my back tires then these guys 😂no wonder people flipped them a lot..

I remember this commercial as an 80’s baby, 😂we all wanted one

My ferinds dad broke his shoulder riding one of thoes

I love how this entire commercial is just about how cool you can be when you own an ATC. There's nothing about saving the earth or self driving whatever.

Anyone else know someone who died on one of these? I loved riding them, but catch that back tire on something and it flips in a fraction of a second.

Had these growing up in the 90’s. We lost both our Big Reds to a fire when we packed them on a flat bed trailer and put luggage all around them strapped down. We never knew how the fire started.

Ah yes. The early days of ATV's. I had a 83 Yamaha 225DX. Not as kick ass as the 250R, but i could crack 50 on a dirt road.

How many farmers have these things killed?

I remember my Dad getting me one of these death machines for my twelve B Day…I thought my Mon was going to S*** a brick and divorce my Dad on the spot….Thanks Dad for the great childhood…Miss you. Amazing how I survived childhood 😂

I wish I could go back to the 80s and stay the hell there.

best part - no fukin internet around

Rollover, No problem lol

Waaaay too much motor for that shit suspension lol. So much fun.

Plenty of people died on these, they were extremely dangerous

I learned how to ride on an ACR250r lol. Looking back that was insane.

My older brother got killed on one of these. I don't blame the machine, so I don't need that feedback. It's just a very different type of machine to ride. It needs to be driven super delicate, or balls to the walls. Everything in-between is what is dangerous

...and then you hit a 2 track farm road and your front wheel runs on the middleman..😂😂😂

Racing “slicks” on the rear!

I had countless hours (3 years) of ecstatic fun on mine! What memories!!! Thanks!

I want to go to there 😢

Fuk .I had this trike.Plus the 86 big red. Great time in my life

They were innovative and useful and fun. And folks, if you don't like BS lawsuits and overregulation by an out of control government nanny state with mamby pansy ninnies trying to run your life, welcome to seeing the single first product that led to that. Yep, kids were hurt, some were killed, but it typically was because they were trying to do something that was outside of the envelope of the machine.

ATC's were HUGE when they came out. Everyone had one or wanted one. Unfortunately because they had three wheels very inexperienced riders assumed they were safe. This lead to multiple accidents, injuries and subsequent regulations. Honestly, If they brought back the ATC 250R back... I would be the first in line. They were genius.

I remember riding one like this as a 10 year old at a fairground park and having the rear wheels rip the skin off the back of my legs hah a 80's child, in shorts and trainers. I think the mud guards must have been missing!

The 3-wheeler was definitely 80’s But for some reason the music sounded 70’s

Ok I'm 40 and when on earth we're commercials this long???

Loud, stinky, filthy piece of junk.

driving in the sand is the best place to film a commercial because if these guys were on a hard packed lawn they would have bailed 20 times.

Lol I am back...Great idea using professional riders. That's the problem, back in 1980s we all thought we could ride like that. Unfortunately many found out the hardway.

Wheelchair sold separately

I was getting a chub during that beach scene. It needed a tall tan blonde with bolt-ons! If we'd have known then what we know now... AIDS was about to come on the scene, but coke was still good for you- good years for heterosexuals. Damn good years...

1st hand knowledge They Suck Highside No Bueno

I had two 185s's, a 200SX & a 250R back in 1984. (We had a placer claim in Alaska) They were among the best days of my life; & I regret every moment I wished to grow older & have those years behind me.

I guess commercials back then were super long.

Had a 350x when younger ,it was a beast ,whole lot of fun wish I still had it

Bring them back had one they were great had several in the eighty
