That is awsome, Will you be riding it? I don't think you should, that is a display case special I think

[Yamaha Tri-Moto]

lol I know. Im scared to ride it. I dont want to get it dirty. Ill probably only ride it once in a blue moon, ill use the other R to beat on.

[Orangecnty250r]

Yep very nice!!!! Congrats!!! Mines in very close to that condition and that price is about what I have into mine..

If yours is a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10 I give mine an 8.5

Cherish that machine because its seems pople had a tendency to trash the 83 and 84's . Like Rodney says "No respect" they are rare in that condition. what are your plans for it?? If you plan on parking it I have a few nice parts to bring it back to full OEM. Those look like cheng shins.... there are closer to OEM tires out there..PM me if you want some info.

Good luck on a nice score

In that condition, I would park it as an investment. Just start it a few times a year to keep fresh. Who knows what that will be worth in the next few years. Looks like a museum piece.

beautiful -

congrats

Makes you wonder how many more Beauties like this are actually still out there.

i was planning on going all white or all black with my 84...after seeing this gem, I think I will maybe go back to stock...That is one fine ride, and well worth every penny you have into it!!!! Personally, I would ride this one slowly around the yard, and never rip it. Then it would be washed, dried and placed on jackstands. Very sweet trike, congrats! Dave

Thanks for the updated pics.

[Orangecnty250r]

Well worth the download time....the updated pics look awesome!!!!!

[Yamaha Tri-Moto]

Thanks for the comments guys. Orangecnty, not sure on my plans for it yet probably will not ride it often if at all, what tires do you have in mind that are closer to OEM, and any ideas where I can pick some up?? Thanks

[Orangecnty250r]

I'll pull them out in the next day or to and show you some pics compared to the original tires.....they are very close

[Orangecnty250r]

Sorry for being super slow

Here pictured on the machine are the factory issued Dunlops which are long discontinued

And....

Here are the Ohtsus H-trak PV 301 22x11x8 I bought them a while back at Chaparral I beleive. The are identical with exception of dimpling every knobby versus the Dunlops alternating..If you can get them pick them up quickly because Ohtsu doesnt manufacture the tires anymore so whats out there is it!!!!!

[85hondaatc125m]

frigan sweet! I had to go check some places to make sure it wasnt 1984.
Nice riding enviroment you have there, ever take any of your trike up or down the slide, or on the swings.

[Yamaha Tri-Moto]

Nah never taken them up the slide yet lol. But I should probably try that.

i was going to buy an 83 for 700 bucks a while back. it had new top and bottom end with 3 new tires, new black plastics. wish i would have.
