    Rusted trike shootout !!!

    Instead of posting pictures of nice trikes, lets see who at one time had the worst RUSTED trike.

    I'm a very good canidate and I did buy this 85 SX as a none fixer upper, just for parts, if it has any good ones left ........... it's just too far gone to fix

    That YTM225DX I sold you was the worst I've ever had, and even that wasn't that bad. Hey by the way do you have your bumblebee 225 put together? Post some pics!!!

    This here is a rusty trike that I bought from a guy named Rusty. Rusty was playing with a rusty lighter, and Rustys dad lost his garage. So, Rusty sold me this RUSTY trike.

    Used to be a YTM200

    Those are great pictures dude! I doubt anyone will top that.

    Hey, if you still have it I'd love if you would take a nice shot of it setting in nice green grass (got green grass yet?) so it shows up good.

    I don't know why but I'd like a nice glossy of it hanging in my garage, just strikes me as being really funny

    If you feel like it and do it, let me know, I'll send you my email address.

    Just noticed, the rear rack is certainly salvageable yet isn't it ? You going to sell that part? Hmmmm, the pipe looks just fine too. I need a pipe (whole assembly) for sure. Is it A-OK?

    Ooops, its a 200 not a 225, don't think either would fit?

    It's been long gone for quite a while now. I did salvage the rack, floorboards, hitch and pipe before it went to the scrap yard. I was told that it was in mint condition before the fire. Damn shame to see a trike go out that way.
