    tri moto 175

    I was just browising ebay australia and came across this. Obviously its a 175 with painted plastics but look at the rear end, is that normal? I thought they were hard tails? Some sort of kit or homemade? I dident know they were that big!

    That bike has a completely different front end and some sort of rear suspension kit. It would be worth buying just to see how it was made.

    It looks like it has a after maket pipe or something on it. And it looks the pipe is covering the foot peg.

    Yes, looks to me like that little Yamie is oozing with aftermarket trickery!

    Wouldn't that be cool if in Australia, the Tri-Motos came with yamaha blue plastic.

    That's very cool. Yes, the originals were hard tail and the front end doesn't look stock either.

    He also mentions a 4 speed. The Tri Moto was a 5. Make sure something's not boogered up bad in the tranny.

    I'd buy it.
