Hello fellow 3 wheeler aficionados!

Just added a couple rigs to my fleet of 3 wheelers (now a total of 5!). Picked up this cool little 70 complete and original from a guy at work for $275, runs & rides. Future plans include new dark blue plastics, paint/decals, seat cover and a 6 pack rack. My 6 year olds Christmas present, he loves it.

And just today scored this '83-'84? Kawasaki KLT250 for a dollar a cc! It has the rear differential that you can lock at one wheel. Allegedly just needs a battery and carb clean, if that's so I'll be reliving my youth soon. This is almost the same rig that I grew up on. Dad bought one of the first ones in the country, bright green but had a chain so must have been an '82. Picking it up this weekend. Updates to follow!

Nice scores! Those KLT's can be a pain though.

Yeah there were several times the one we had growing up sat for months at a time cause of a bad starter, carb issues, on and on. I bet I resurrected that thing 5 times before it finally got cut up for a go kart.

$ 525.00 for the pair... which one did you get for free ? ;)

Lots more there than you paid. That 70 is a SERIOUS steal at $ 275.00

Is it? I just assumed with a differential it was a shaft drive, thanks for the info!

Nope chain all it is its not diff lock it just lets one hub free wheel until you lock it! I dont like it it corners like crap cause it just free wheels and revs right up but it is good for just cruising!
