Its bored out to 285 . He wants $ 1500. Which in Canada is good I believe. But the trike is 7 hrs away. What do you guys think. From pics it obvisouly has a oil leak.

thats a nice looking tecate for $1500 in Canada. i know i guy who bought one of theses for $1200 and it didn't even run! as long as the motor sounds tight the oil leak shouldn't much just a new gasket. if you go look at it check around the case bolt they my have been over torqued and cracked the case that may be causing the leak
Sounds and looks reasonable.

If you can afford it, want it, and have trouble finding them, go for it!
No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

I had a leak on my Tecate like that . I rode 2 hours double up when my friend broke his arm (Before cell phones)the chain was so tight it roached the counter shaft.
Hey where abouts in bc do you live I'm on Vancouver island and where is this tecate I'm not interested just wondering
Trike is at Cambell River. I live in Vernon. If it was closer it would be in my shop right now, aslong as it is as good as the guy says it is . I dont want to to use up all that time travelling just in case I decide against it. So please buy it , it is making me nuts (lol)
Bored out to a 285? Wow....

Ya its 2hrs away from me but I don't really like the 84 tecate ya they never show up this close to me but I love the 85-87 though but they cost a fortune Here in canada
This is the first Tecate I have come across. I dont know much about them. What makes the 85-87 better than the 84
The 85 has aluminum wheels, front disc brakes, a brace in the footpeg, 2mm larger carb, grease zerks on the dogbone, adjustable rear shock, seperate light and kill switches, 4/156 rear hub spacing (84 was 4/4, 85 won't fit inside an 8" wheel), there are also some small frame differences. The 85 was longer and lighter. The seam on the inside of the frame where the footpeg mounts is fully welded on an 85, spot welded on an 84. The rear carriers are different where the rear caliper mounts.

Yeah I was wondering about that. Makes me a little nervous its been bored out to that size. However maybe the guy does not know for sure . He kept calling it a KX trike and did not know it was a Tecate
