Pretty common to find a 86

Still not a bad price for the condition and the way he says it is./

even in the uk the 86 is fairly common,having said that i know a guy with 2 87's and even one guy who has an 88 :-)

I used the search key a month or so ago for
'trike production numbers'

Can't find my notes but I do remember the 87 models were around 4-5,000 made.

Not sure if that's worldwide or usa

If that listing is true and it has no terminal issues, it would easily go for 12-1500 on the west coast.

Found it!

86es 28,674
87es 4,889

I heard that the br and sx especially are the only sporty atc's with reverse so you can back out of blackberry bushes and mud .

True or not, reverse may or may not mean that much for your needs but it can be a consideration for offroaders as can the auto clutch option.

Just get one of each.
