    Ha, my dad picked up a 1985.5 tri-z $200

    So I came across a tri-z locally for $200 and it turns out to be 98% complete and a very low hour bike. It was just sitting there rotting in a field under a tree, after the brother died I guess they just parked it there. We didn't even really try we just wiped off the shrouds and they look brand new. The plastic isn't even brittle. Will post pics but it is going to need a tear down to lube everything up and replace seals. The best part? It runs, and with tons of compression. Just amazed really.
