    Talking Got a 85 Yamaha YTZ 250 today

    I've been looking for a sport 3 wheeler for a while. My 83 big red is good for hunting and hauling but not goin fast (big red has almost no susp travel) I saw this one in the Little Nickle, i just had to buy it. It has a Honda 250 motor with aftermarket pipe and fuel pump. The guy says he had to cut the frenders to make room for the kick start lever. It needs some switches for the lights and dosent have a front brake also is without a CDI Box. Pretty much the wiring is a mess. Im not even sure where the CDI Box goes on this bike.

    Shouldn't it be a Honamaha...Hehe sounds like a hawaiin trike!

    Nice find by the way. Might be easiest to swap back to the Tri-Z engine, but if that's not an option, find out what year the engine is and pick up a complete harness off e-bay. Generally they can be bought CHEAP, even with the CDI and coil.

    Nice find, by the way.

    wow, that should rip when you get it done....pretty much all LQ cr motors put out quite a bit more than any of the wheeler motor, but it might vibrate cause of no counterbalancer....

    hrc85250r , that sig pic is a bit on the too big side. It's gonna mes up the page border for some people. Not to mention the dial up users might march on your house with pitch forks and torches.

    Thinking the same thing. I have to scroll way over to the right to read 2 words.
