    What make/model is this trike?

    Hi
    The pictures are pretty poor as the trike is currently stored poorly by its owner
    I'm gonna get it going
    It has a yam engine and 2 makuni carbs

    that there is a kawasaki prairie 250 (which is no longer a 250) model KLT 250A
    and I would say the engine would be around 650-750cc street bike engine

    This looks like a 84 Honda big red with a street bike headlight and Kawi handle bars. It looks similar to one I used to own, however the pics are somewhat distorted on my puter so it is hard for me to tell

    An easy way to tell if its a kawasaki is the springer/rut rider front end and the rear rack.
    it has a free wheeling hub on the right side (looking from the front) that can be locked! when you get it cleaned up tell us what the oem colour of the plastic is!

    It's a "Fugly", run away. I see major cash disappearing before your eyes. Unless tinkering is your strong suit, best to buy a runner and clean it up. Just my two cents.

    I've got spare time and cash to make it work
    If I start getting stressed with it then the owner (father in law) will help
    I'm looking at buying a motorbike at the mo so riding this a little will take away the buzz
