Afternoon all,
I've been checking out the forums for a little bit, and figured it was time to say hi...
Hi.
I've been into various forms of offroading, dirtbikes and 4x4's mostly, for like 18 yrs now. However, this is my first intro into the 3wheelers.
Sold my CRF450r last year, and recently a freind picked up a ATC250r. So me being me, i had to give it a try. Shopped around and decided that i wanted to get a 350x (not a big fan of the smokers). Thought i had one at one point, i had agreed with the guy for his asking price of $500 sight unseen and that i was coming over to buy it after work. Well a couple hours before i got off work, he texted me to tell me that he had sold it for $700... never even had a chance to counter offer... jerk.
Well about a week later a managed to pick up a beater '85 for $350. It needed rear fairing, seat, exhaust, tires.... help....
It did however come with a 200x that is mostly complete... except for a complete lack of nuts and bolts to put it together.... :lol:
Anyway, here is the bike as it sits, still waiting on the DG exhaust to show up, and i havent found a seat yet.
Dig the iorn cross taillight :naughty:
And a quick question, anyone know where that front rim/tire came from? I don't think its from a 3 wheeler, the sucker is huge, a good 3 inches taller than the 200x front wheel.
