    31 bids to only 177.00. Although it needs some TLC its worth every penny for sure. Nice buy!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    I think the motor came out of an earlier year 250R. Other than that all the major items are there. I am preparing myself to bend over and pick up a motor on Eslay but for now I'm gonna just look at it for a few days before I start to break it down. The guy also had a milk crate full of little items to go with it which helped. Apparently the seller was renting out a storage unit and the guy didn't pay his rent so eventually the seller was awarded his property inside. I have access to a powdercoating facility so I am planning on bringing this baby back from the dead in a big way. Thanks for the comments.
