raised on 3 wheels

[123-shaneomac]

hello all i have been browsing this site for months for information and tech advice, i decided after buying my second 3 toe of my own yesterday(yamaha tri moto 175) that it was time to join up. I grew up on a honda big red 250, ive had quads and bikes but i will never love them like i do ol 3 toes. i 22 and i just really got into a position where i could get back to my true love of 3 wheelin, a couple of months ago a friend showed up over at my house with a 84 honda 200m on the back of his truck, i gave him $35 bucks for it, put a new carb on it(ebay$25), cleaned the tank and it fired right up. since then i routinely browse ebay and craigslist for parts and whatnot, and yesterday i found a 175 tri moto for $125 bucks with a flat front tire, i called the guy half heartedly thinking about buying it...until i found out it was a 2-stroke, ive never owned a 2 stroke and ive always wanted one so i told the guy to bring it on, he said that it didnt run and it had been setting up for some years, after reading a post on here about fuel mixture ratios, i mixed up some 36:1 poured it in and proceeded to pulling this thing down the road with my buddy driving my truck. after a little bit of bogging it fired right up too and it is a beast in a tiny package, i love it. In the 2 days that i have had the tri moto i have been chased by ol jonny law(Guess who won?) and threatened eviction from my landlord but i just cant quit, ive got the fever. i guess what i am trying to say is HELLO im new and thank you guys for letting me in your circle .

p.s. does anyone know where i could get a pdf service manual the tri moto 175, im not sure what year it is but i think they were only made 2 years.

thanks- shaneomac
