    Purchase price for my Z, 1800. the mods to my Z are hitting around 900, plus another 900 this winter of upgrades.

    My other Z is looking at 1400 purchase price, and another 300 this winter.

    350 for the 85 SX, 200 for the 200.

    And I bought another 86 Z for 750, and sold it for 1350.

    So in total, in canadian funds, about just shy of 5 grand.

    I only paid $100 for my 198? 200X, and right now i have put no money into it except for gas...It had no back wheels when i bought it, but i got some rims and tires for free. It pays to know the right people haha. It's in pretty good shape, i may eventually get an actual 200X motor for it, but probably not. I'll probably end up popping it, not having a silencer can do those sorts of things lol, but untill then, i won't spend a cent on the thing

    I'd say 40,000 -45,000 for all in my signature plus the parts

    Darn I just did a quick ad up....maybe more
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    I don't know if its been posted before, but curious from ground up restos to your driver type trikes. Jim

    It's driving you nuts to spend money on that "R" isn't it stop adding up every nickle and just do it if it's something you'll enjoy riding. BUT, 800$ turns into 2 grand real quick, so get what you want to be riding.

    I've had an 85 250SX I paid 300$ for and an 87 250SX I paid 175$ for and they both stood me about 2000$ to 2500$ each.

    Also an 85 250R I paid 700$ for that stood me about 2200$ when running and an 85 200X I paid 200$ that turned into 800$.

    Looks like alot of us find beat up rusty junk and have no problem dumping wads of cash into it. Alot of us will do it to almost any trike we find only to sell it 3 months after we rebuilt it just the way we wanted. It's just the way it is....
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    I purchased my 85 Big Red from a friend about 10 years ago for a $1000.00. I stripped it down to the frame and have powdercoated all the parts that were orginally powcercoated or painted black, have got all new oem plastic except the trunk lid, all new oem cables, and alot of other stuff. Probably have spent at least another $1000.00. Am now ready to start putting it back together.
