    Nice trike .A little work and she will be a jem. First thing I would do is put air in rear tires, check air box,Check oil,check spark. drain old gas from carb and tank.put some fresh gas in see if it will start. Then work from there.

    Nice find.
    First pull the tank and the carb for a good cleaning.
    Bake brake probably has rust in it, spray PB in the holes and work free after a few days.
    Why did the red always fade in the headlight?

    350$

    if rear brake is suspected pull right rear wheel and take off brake drum cover and with park brake off and pedal all the way up loosen rear brake adjustment and pull brake drum off and inspect. prolly rusty and full of mud etc. 2-3 cans of brake clean and antisieze/moly lube on pins and pivots and elbow grease and depending on parts it will be fine.

    Looks like no oil leaks? Tank and plastic look good. Forks look good from the pic. Maybe it doesn't have much time on it but has been sitting outside. 300$ in the US but where I live at least double. Should be a great machine with a little TLC.

    The grips show very little wear. Original back tires.

    Might be a couple weeks before I can dive into it. But threw a battery at it light worked no turning by starter motor will turn by pull rope PO did say last time ridden would foul plug been sitting a while didn't feel like a lot of compression. He was tough on price, non-negotiable "if you want it. Come and get it" just couldn't quite get there fast enough. Sight unseen I had no clue what I was getting. He couldn't remember other than BR before they had reverse. Yea I think this is the nicest, most complete atv, atc I've gotten and the cheapest!!! Too bad I gotta work but no rush thanks. Danny

    all the tips were great. had some time early morning to pull carb lil bit yukky but got it cleaned put back on and oohhhh yeah she fired right up some adjusting and purring .. rear hand brake cable frozen, air filter crumbled on removal, tank in progress of cleaning, rear tires flat too long sitting in one spot and stirs up the dirt when aired up. loosened rear brake cable and can roll a little, sounds like valve lash might need adjusting but am not complaining considering price so now the wish list!!! what rear tires do ya'll (yes i'm texan spell like i talk) consider a good option? and how is DURO tires from atv tire store or who has lowest prices???
