Man. It looks great. Props to you on this. It looked like a boat anchor at the start.

Excellent job on the seat...good on ya for redoing it so it looks right. It makes me wanna redo the seat on my 250SX as there's a good 2 inch gap between the tank and top of the seat and it bugs me every time I look at it! Dang vinyl shrinkage after 30 years! Ha ha

Got some plastic fender holders from Home Depot for $6.50. Had to drill the holes the next size up on the Front Fender corners but they snapped right in. Installed the Instrument panel with the Ignition Switch mod. Works like a charm. It's pretty close to the Renthal crossbar so I can't use my Renthal Crossbar Pad I had from another project.
This is 99.9% done as I am just waiting on the battery holddown I bought off eBay. Was gonna zip tie it but no need to go ghetto after all this work

Last pieces installed. Battery holder and liner installed. The battery is a little bit taller than a stock one, had to put a spacer on the mounting bolt. Rear light wires zip tied and tank side rubbers installed. I am done. Just have to let the RTV dry on one of the tank side rubbers. I'll wipe it all down and take the final pics of it complete. What a journey!

Ok all! She's all done. 100% complete. She runs like new. Everything works perfect. This was a fun project. She needed tons of work but was well worth it. I only replaced what "needed" to be replaced for safety sake. The ATC was missing lots of parts but eBay to the rescue again. The 250SX is getting more and more harder to find, so parts become the same way.
I sold my 250R since I never used it, plus it was just too fast being a 2 stroke with a manual clutch. This 250SX is a keeper as it has all the bells and whistles and way ahead of it's time in 1985. The Semi Auto makes it easy for anyone to ride. Gotta love the electric start and reverse. Also, never needing to oil a chain is a plus with the shaft drive. She's an all around cruiser and will be wicked on the next trip to the Desert.
Here is pretty much what I started out with. Disaster case.
Here she is in her final glory.

Trike is SOLD to a nice couple from Nevada. They drove all the way from there to San Diego for her. I am glad she went to a good family who appreciates an old skool trike.
I got too many toys and although the real reason was the challenge and to keep her, but this restored trike needs to be used. I got a Bombardier DS650 and a KTM 250SXF that I play with and the ATC would just sit pretty. Can't have that. Thanks for all the assistance in my Resto Journey. You guys are awesome!!
