Hey guys, I am new to the site. I grew up learning to ride on 3 wheels before anything. atc 70, 125m, 185s, (3) 200x's, and finally my fathers 350x in high school. The last 8 years had me owning a trx450r, and a hand full of street bikes (RC51's and a Kawi 363 track bike). Now I am finally ready to be on a trike again.

I found this gem on craigslist. Mostly original and in great shape for being 23 years old. It does have a 265 kit w/ dune port and polish. The pipe is an old Paul Turner with an Answer exhaust. Oh yeah and an aftermarket Carb.

Got it with all the stock goodies too. Exhaust, airbox lid, carb, front wheel.

I will agree with you for $1600. Mine was $2000 and am I really happy with mine for the area and price.
