4 Wheels? Huh?
Decent little 85 you have there..you can go south on a $200 Big Red.
Even if the engine is toast you could part and sell..hell the tank is worth that if it's clean inside!!
Dig in and keep us informed!

Got the holeshot
For even $200 it doesnt look too bad. As long as everything is not locked up i would keep it.

I think it will clean up, and for $200, you cant go wrong.

Nice score. Glad to see someone jump on these kinds of deals rather than waste time posting on here to find out if it's a good deal or not, only then to find out it's sold by the time they get back to the guy!

The day begins with 3WW
Let us know what you find wrong with it. Likely it just needs fresh gas, clean the carb, and a nice solid fluid change (oil + diff). If you need parts I have some depending if you are trying to make a rider out of it, or go a bit further. Fenders will be the hardest thing to get for it to make it look nice, but after market new is out there but pricey! I probably have a spare seat, but they sell for a fairly high price too, something like $60-80ish, maybe $100 if really nice. Also have an extra tool kit, I think I have it listed on my atcfixer site.
Atleast it came with good tires, you should be able to go though anything with that much meat lol. Exhaust looks a little odd, don't think it is oem. Swing arm appears to be an 85 to me.
100% worse case, the rear end will part out for more money than you got into it, then you have the engine, tank etc yet, I'd say a solid $500-800 in parts there if stuff is good.
