    I don't part out any trike unless it's really, REALLY bad. To most I think this is a prime canidate for a part out disection but not me.

    Here are the frame before shots and other parts of 84 200S. The whole trike was in this type of condition and still isn't finished but has come a LOOOOOOOONG way!

    I remember that a few months ago but didn't relize it was you.

    Thats really

    UGLY

    I think you win by a long shot.

    I remember you said what ever you could scrounge up to make the thing run you did. You even TOOK parts back out of trashed parts in dumpsters or something if I remember correct.

    You are correct. I did that to prove that not every broke part is junk. A lot of times you can simply clean it up or make a simple repair and it will work fine. If I wanted to, I could clean that thing up and make a show worthy ride out of it, and no one will ever know it was built from junk.

    I still drive this thing but i just need a new chain becuase the chaincase touched the chain all the time and wore it out really fast. I took it off now though.

    I agree, that thing looks great. It does not belong on this thread.
