I had one of them when I was a little guy. In fact it was my very first trike back in 85. I think it was a 83?

nice job on the rebuilt. i have a 175 im restoring for my son. the only difference is all the bikes i have seen are like yours. reddish/orange graphics. the one i have is yellow with black graphics. are the black graphics common??

I have to say that is a very bad before pic, the after is ver nice.... I now wish I took a before of my 225.... It was all in pieces, only 2 wheels on it, 1 rear axle shaft was broken off and from what I hear the tire that was attached (to the broke off axle) floated down the swamp, it hadn't had a plug in it for about 6 months and sat out (or I should say - laid there in a heap) all winter with out being covered.... now all that's left to do is get a new CDI and one half of the plastic tank cover and It'll be done.....
