    SX got a kid brother tonight ! 100 $ sweet !

    Well.. had been promissed a trike a while back. and every time i see buddy i keep askin..

    Tonight i got my wish. Delivered to my door for 100 $ canadian .

    it's an 83 125 M.

    I just put the heat on in the garage and am going out for some snap shots. ( it's frickin -10c out tonight !!! )

    So far the problems are the following:

    1- Won't shift, lever goes up and down. does not seem to slip on the splines, but no clicky-shifty..

    2- Throttle cable seized up.. small problem..

    3- Needs rear-axle bearings, but it rolls.

    4- Needs brake cables, and i hope the drums are ok.

    5- Seat cover all busted up.

    on the good side.. :

    The plastics are in goos shape, minor cracks but nothing missing.
    New tires all around
    Gas tank is not too rusty, minor inside surface rust.
    Axle straight
    Motor turns over.
    HAS ELECTRIC START !!!! ( Not currently working. but i'm gonna look at it.)

    Too exited to type more.. heading out there.. be back with pictures soon.

    It's one cool little trike !!

    84 ATC - 200 ES, Jimmy-Rigged, don't ask.( Sold, 03-17-2005)

    Nice score. I'm looking for another trike, too. I want a junky beater (preferably a 200X) that I can get for cheap and have fun on and leave the SX indoors so she don't get beat up!

    She's in good shape really, barely any rust on and looks like low mileage.

    oh.. and it's an 84 actually.. made on 08 / 83

    The underside of the motor is all full of oil.. i don't like that..

    I checked the oil and it's just barely showing on the dip stick.. and one bolt is missing on the footpeg mounts...

    Horrible desing by honda to mount the pegs to the tranny..
