    Very good to meet you. Nice looking Yamaha! There are other ways to get you a title if all else fails for you in PA. I've talked to other PA riders about this as well. In Ohio it's NO PROBLEM to get you a title. Provided your trike has a readable vin on the frame.

    i wouldnt even bother, the factory decals are better than the repro ones even if they are a lil faded, and that thing is clean!!!!! if it was mine it would sit on a shelf in my living room.

    You probably didn't even think of this but that yt 125 is probably the best original condition 125 in all of North America if you only rode it for 2 months. I can't believe it sat there for that long. I'm sure your kid thinks its cool. Has he seen this web site yet?

    Thanx all for the kind words and sentiments, I just let the kids see the site and they are just so full of themselves its unreal. Just a quick scenario to the occassion. Yes dad was a real cool Guy, and I was an Obnoxious P.I.T.A. for two and a half years since I saw the first trimoto in 1979. Dad told me to get a job and buy it if I wanted it that bad. I saved all my money as best I could ( if I remember It was somewhere in the 800 range). When I had the money we went to buy it and Dad handed me my money back. He was proud of the determination and responsibility I had taken on. Im trying to teach my son While it is fun, There is a responsibility to be taken on.

    Man she is quite a beauty. How's she run? My dad did the exact same thing, if I wanted it I saved for it and bought it. But sometimes the would pitch in some here and there. Just remember to be at Trike Fest 06, we can have a tri moto mx race!!

    She runs great, Except for some smoke, too rich on oil, cuz I didnt trust autoluber after 20 years, so I added some to the tank. Only complaint is INSTABILITY--but then again it always was. Any Ideas on beefing up handling without chopping it to death?
