nice...what are your plans for it?

**RacerRichie** · 02-11-2006, 09:45 AM

ahhh another CT folk.
And how did you see that listing Wed. night for the BN? on the internet? I called that dude on Thursday AM and he was bumming hardcore. The guy you bought that stuff from was so bummed and said that the phone has been ringing off the hook. He told me that he was an idiot for letting it go at that price .......I agreed with him and I said goodbye to him on the phone.
Anyway good score lets hook up and ride or something.

Good deal, make it live!!!

I was thinkin....$500 for the Trike, $150 for a crank, $125 piston/rings/gasket kit, $150 sleeve & bore. All said, you should have about $1000 in it when you are up and running. I would take the mint rad shroud, toss it up on Ebay, but a pair of Maiers and use the rest to offset the engine costs! For engine parts, give Magoo over at kawieriders a shout. He can help ya out for sure.

i just happened to search the bargain news and saw them.i called him that night and no answer.i called him the next day 2 times and was lucky enough to be the one who got to him first.he agreed to sell it for $500 before i even went to look at it.he was bummed and admitted he probably should have asked more for it.he was honest and sold it to me for what he said he would.its going to sit in my garage until i have time to do anything with it.probably not for a long time,i have 4 other tecates i need to finish first.im think 300 kit on this or something big.it has the 86 kx250 motor and not the kxt motor.but for $500,i couldnt let it pass.

The Maier tank shrouds are all gone as well, finding a set of those is even getting difficult these days

You can't get Maier shrouds for 86/87 Tecates can you????

**3tigers** · 02-12-2006, 09:43 AM

no,the maier shrouds have been discontinued for years.fortunately i have a pair of them.if and when i do decide to sell an 86,the maier shrouds will be going on it.i will be keeping the oem ones for another 86 tecate.
