Who has the most $$$ into a single trike???

**roofinggun** · 11-13-2003, 07:51 PM

I have an '86 350x which I have about $1550 into all together. It is stock with the exception of the seat cover and a few other add ons like guards and new bearings. Some people call that a waste, but I don't think so. I was just wondering what some of you have invested and in what.

I only have about 1200 altogether into my 85 250r.

My buddy AtcDave (who I bought the 250r off) has about 10 grand into a very well done Atc500r.

EDIT September 2007:

I did some math today...Iv owned my 250r for nearly 10 years... on a yearly basis spending anywhere from 500 to 1000 in parts/maintenance items.
Adds up quick. By the same token, between purchasing and modding my 07 trx450r, I have close to 10 grand into that as well. Add to that 50$ a week in fuel.

Easy come, easy go.....right?

I'd give you what you have into that 350x in a heartbeat!

I think kimmer250r has TONS of $$$ in his 310 R.

I had about 2200.00 into Trolls trike. Came out nice though. I don't know how many man hours I had into it though.

I have a little over $900 in mine. Its nothing too special put I know that I won't get nearly that when I sell it.

Well I cant say I have alot in just one trike but I have bought 4 trikes in the last 3-4 months tough.

**sportvette** · 11-13-2003, 09:45 PM

approx. $2200 in the 350x - $900 plus parts
approx. $1800 in the 250r - $1500 plus parts
approx. $2200 in the tecate - $950 plus parts

the 350x has new fenders all around, front tire, clarke gas tank, renthal handlebar and grips, rebuilt forks, fork boots, clutch, seat cover, levers, petcock, k&n air filter

the 250r came with renthal bar and grips, fmf pipe and silencer, k&n air filter, nice tires, the only things i had to buy was a front sprocket cover and case saver, extended swingarm that is not on yet, new levers

the tecate needed a lot of work. i have ordered approx. $400 in oem parts, $265 for front and rear fenders, $135 for headlight plastic and right radiator shroud, $50 for gas tank cover, $300 for some extra parts off ebay, $110 for k&n air filter and dg silencer, i plan on making this bike really hot, going to powder coat it up.

My vote goes to Tom Batts 8)

**sportvette** · 11-13-2003, 09:57 PM

i dont know if he spent the most, but his trike is sure worth whatever he paid, that bike is the nicest i have ever seen.

**AirManCam** · 11-13-2003, 10:26 PM

I think 452x has this one. I believe he has over 9k in his 350x!
Lets see 800 for buying it......about 1350 in parts I have more parts into after this pic

**trikerider2oo7** · 11-13-2003, 10:38 PM

i will have about 1800 when i get my new tires

**AirManCam** · 11-13-2003, 10:52 PM

I see that Tom has them "rare H-Tracks" I am beginning to think that they came stock with 85 350xs

I don't think Tom has the most money but I Think it sures hell is the nicest
