    got another trike

    well i picked up a yamaha 225dr today for 20 bucks.it needs some parts mostly bolts and 4 studs.i wanted to know if it is even worth fixing .im mostly a honda person so i dont want to spend very much money on it. i might just sit it out by the road for 25 bucks.

    I think they are a good trike. I have only had the DX's but would imagine the reverse would only make it better. They are a capable machine. Probably worth fixing, expecially if it doesn't need too much.
    Anyone know of a new project machine for me around Wisconsin?

    Needs some bolts and studs, and your worried about putting to much money in it? bolts and studs are cheap at any hardware store, I had fun on my old 225DX, Why did you even buy it if you don't want it?
    Give me no lip and I tell you no lie.
