    I bought this 85 350x last week.

    I found this local it looked a little weathered but not all that bad. It looks like it was welded on the frame above the left footpeg but the rest seems alright. I don't know much about the 350x but I have always liked them. The bad is I could not hear it run but the compression felt ok and it only seems to be missing the airbox. I did not even think about it I was just trying to make sure the major parts were all there. The exhaust studs are broken so once that is fixed I think I can put the engine in and see if she runs. I hope so or I paid 500 bucks for a bunch of parts.

    Let me know. I have a whole set up for a 86 coming. I bought it from ebay just for the master and cable but I know the caliper wont fit. They do sell new rebuild kits for the 85 so if you have one that just needs a rebuild thats fine too. Thanks

    I don't think you can go wrong with that deal. Looking at the pics, that trike would finish my project off and have spare parts left over. But if that motor is a runner, that X should be put back together. Either way that was a good purchase !

    absolutely do not part anything out.I could see if there was major frame damage then you justify parting it but if your that close to a rideable bike then there's no sense at all in parting it.if I wont run and you loose interest in fixing it then just sell it for your money back the way it is.someone will always buy it no matter the condition.if you get something for a good price then don't worry about all the bad things on it just look at what it could be.
