Heres a good one, Im advertising all over the place looking for a decent bottom end, and a guy emails me with a similar trike, siezed piston and a bad 2nd gear. He'll let me have it for a $100. So guess what Im hoping to go look at it tommorrow. I figure I can tear that motor apart, and if I screw it up at least my 84 still runs. Jim

well i started with a bare frame and have purchased every little nut bolt and gagget for it so far, still isnt coomplete or running yet, hope to have the t3 running by feburary, have about 1500 into it now, and will probably be throwing at least, "at least", another grand into it before shes up and running and purring like a possessed green alien. but no matter what the amount of cash i put into it, its all good cuz it comes from love. the wife can divorce first before i stop building this thing, lol hahahahahaha.

scooteroo, you built your tecate from scratch? very nice that's why it looks so clean lol, i always thought that you bought a bike and just needed some parts for it... awesome.

My 85 Yamaha YTM200ERN with racks and a few other misc parts, $625.00. The 85 Honda 250SX with everything, about $80.00.

I traded a 1997 rm125 that I paid 800 dollars for.For a 85 tri-z that I have roughly 2000 dollars in parts for and it is still all torn apart.and I am Still looking for more parts.To me a restore is like taking a 1940 coupe that has been sitting in the woods for 50 years(with all the gun shot holes and all in it)and making it shine like a mirror.So when my tri-z is done and it is solid chrome from the ground up I will be happy no matter how much it cost me.
