A few weeks ago my neighbor texted me and asked "what does a 1986 350 threewheeeler go for these days" she sent a picture right after (first picture) I told her "as much as it takes to get it to belong in my barn" her "we can work something out" a few hours later I texted and asked if she'd trade my 338winmag (brand new unfired retails at around $700-800) . She declined and said it was too big for her. I then offered a gently used Canik 9mm with all the goodies in the carry case from the manufacturer and 100rnds of 9mm (9mm is about worth its weight in gold right now, canik is around $400-500 I think?) she said she'd think about it and that evening she texted me and asked if I could get the threewheeler tomorrow. Yes I replied. Got it home. Say on my trailer for a few weeks while I finished some other things. Brought it in the shop did a semi job at cleaning the carb (Unclogged jets and sprayed air in the carb passages). Sure enough, about the 4th kick it came to life. It needs a few things but non the less I have a 350x!
Took it for a spin.... came back and wasn't impressed with it lol. Compression is at 170 psi warm. Doesn't smoke. I think the clutch is slipping. Thought these 350x's were a biotch to start? This one starts relatively easy, kicked on the compression stroke. The decompression cable is missing.
Neighbor ended up trading the canik for a Sig. 267305267306
