Hello again fellow trikers... :rolleyes:
Please,, if you have your rag all pimped out please post some pics. I'm looking for the not so stock type of rides. Diffrent color frames, fenders etc.
Here's a pic of my old 200x I did the frame up in orange. (just as an example.)

and here's a pic of the great gazoo's tricked out 350X with white frame and super cool garden hose skidplate. :rolleyes: :D

Mines just the ordinary, but I always like the lime green/orange and black. Maybe limegreen and white too.

SOMEONE should make an early 90's "racer" 200X or 250R or Tri-Z, you know what I mean. Lots of different neon colors, lots of eye-burning garish neon graphics, and lots of zebra stripes!

When I had my Z I was thinkin about doin the frame and accessories in a neon purple with yellow plastics. I'm lookin for color choices too for my R project, but I just dont think that color scheme would work for a Honda.

personaly a sweet orange on the frame like a bright sunburst orange would look SICK! in my opinion with everything else being black, then at TF next year we can park our X's side by side and be called SKITTLES! LOL!

neon purple with yellow plastics.....
you ride that down here on an LSU game day, and you'll get all the beer, food, and tiger girls you can handle.
neon purple with yellow plastics, i'd kill to have that for a mardi gras parade

Man, that is different, eye catching for sure!
.........and your afraid to try the copper Chris :lol: I still like that color the best :beer , but it's not my trike, that's the only problem:D
Syko.. you got any better pics of that orangish tri z frame?
I will put it in the sun tomorow, I was thinking about it that color for the frame and all black plastics wouldnt look all that bad really.
also I always thought blazer ones was alittle over the top, but if it only had the frame and parts the neon orange and everything else either polished, chrome and silver with all blcak plastics then I think it would have been baddass!

That Z looks awefully close to that copper color huffa was talking about. Hmmm. what color plastic will he be using? I think that black you chose on the X rearend is gonna work out nicely.
oh,, thanks for those pics btw. :beer

This isnt mine, but i photoshopped it and think :wondering its what im going to do with my x, except i have decided to do the front hub black and polish the fork tubes. I couldnt really think of anything else to do (I already have red front and rear fender). Opinions and any other ideas would be appreciated.

the Z is getting repainted the traditional yellow this color will only work in my Op with black plastic, but he wanted yellow and black and I said dude....thats frame is ugly with those colors.. and he agreed

Here is my Purple and Green Tecate stuff. The Green has gold metal flake in it and looks sweet in the sun. The other color is silver with flake. Im sure its been seen by most. It takes me like 10 years to build a ride.:eek:

I remember seeing that and it deserves to be shown every so often, if edog can show his R or 225 over a 100 times then a few times for us is OK I guess :lol:
Very nice !! Looks sharp !!
BTW .......there is one down my way that has been sitting for years, I may have mentioned this to you already ? Anyways, keep me in mind if you ever want your tecate to have a brother because possibly the guy would let it go quite cheap?

Last time (2 weeks ago) there I did not see it, I asked about it, :eek: it got stolen and got recoverd again.
I push this add every so often, no one wants it:( , 300-400 bucks or so would be a bargin I'd think?
Chris, Tecate under your tree maybe or are you so sick of 2 strokes you don't want to look at one for a while ?:lol:

Oh man, If I didnt have my heart on doing my 200x and Tecate in the next few weeks I would be all over that. Man she looks to be all there and in pretty good condition for being an 84. Damn that thing is worth that much to me in parts alone so my custom tecate could have a life time of spare parts to go through. I will never get rid of my Tecate. It will get willed away after im gone. I hope in about 50 years from now.:w00t:
Why has no one bought this Trike? Its almost unbelievable. Then it gets stolen and found? She needs a good home. Buy it yourself and resell it at a profit. It must be worth $500 unless shes totally beat and broke. Maybe the seller is tired of it and will sell it for $300-$350? :TrikesOwn

I know man, I can't believe no one jumps on that, I really should take the plunge but if my wife found out, I'd be in deep trouble, it would be my 1st Kawasaki in my life though, a little green would look nice in the garage :D
Is that the 1st year of the Tecate, 84 ?

I don't know if anyone has done this? But I really really really want to build a liquid R in the old "orange" Honda color scheme. Who knows, I might show up at TF08 with it.

That was my thinking with that 200x frame I painted. It looked fairly close to honda red when i sprayed a sample at the store (I guess because of the lightingg) anyways.. when I finally sprayed the frame it looked more like the old CR paint in the 80's.. so I thought what the heck. it came out pretty good.
Anyone remember seeing that orange and white R a few months back on ebay (went for over 5 grand I think) anyone save that pic?
I'd like to see any other pics you guys may have too!
