    I got 2 words for you: Power Washer! I just hope the plastics aren't all mud stained. Looks all original, The '86 350X with original seat and plastics is a hard to come by machine for some reason. Way easier to find a 250R then it is one of these. Good Job!!

    I bet that thing will look really nice once you give it a bath. How much did you give for it?

    Some shots after some serious cleaning!!





    since the mud sat on the white fenders for so long, they seem like I coul get them brighter, what do you guys do to revive your white plastic. I used a magic eraser that my wife suggested, it worked pretty good, but it was pretty used already. What else should I try??

    can you imagine how clean it was before he took it on that last muddy ride 2 or so years ago, and left it to sit under a tarp!! Thank the 3-wheeling gods I found it when I did. I'll post some more pics tonight when i get home from work. It came with a couple bonus goodies Anyone care to here the story behind this find?? Bye the way, I did not here it run, it was drained of fuel, and It kicked over and shifted like new. the only knwn problem is with the axle, he said last time he rode it he heard a pop or somthing, and there was lots of slop. I think it might have atually blew the bearing apart. havnt looked at it at all, but i did snap a quick pic, let me know if you can see anything. Seems like alot of slop on this side, much more than worn bearings, something looks missing.

    Very nice find. What ever you paid just washing it for sure doubled the value. Does it run?

    It was purchased just outside syracuse in Camillus. I gave 950.00 for it. In my opinion that is a great deal. I have not had a chance to get it running yet, as the tank and carb had been drained, and i want to change the oil caouse its been sitting awhile. also a little bird seed in the airbox. Heres the story of how I came about it, and what I know of it. I am always searching craigslist out to about a 300 mile radius. I saw a picture of this trike about 6 months ago, he was asking 1500.00, i wrote the # down but never ended up calling. yesturday i see the same picture, listed for 1200.00 he had 1 pic, that was crappy, with the mud, and tarp still covering half the bike. But knowing what i was looking at I called him to see what the story was. He had tried to sell it months prior, but only listed it a few times, and had no serious inquiries. After talking with the guy i new i better check it out. The guy bought it from the original owner 5 years ago, freind of a freind, it was his first time on an atv period! he joined the local riding club, used it for a few years on groomed trail rides, said he only put about 20 hrs on it, very easy use! then under the tarp it went. said he would take 950.00 for it. Which i gave him gladly. He actually told me he paid 500.00 for it. CAN YOU IMAGINE!!
    Oh, did i mention that it has the original paperwork!!, 1 gallon honda oil, and filter, and a cherry extra headlight assembly!!
