    To actually answer your question, someone has slid the forks out of the factory big red tripples, then moved the bottom section forward and welded a block (poorly) between them. If it runs good and the inside of the tank looks good i'd probably throw $400-500 at it.

    Judging from the paint on the 250es, and that of the atc in the background, I would surmise that the seller's blood type is OD green positive.

    Because Larry T Moore's mother in law is more fond of three wheelers than he is of her.
