    My bitter/sweet new addition....

    My story is, I have a terrible habit of finding old trikes in OK shape, then restoring them to like new condition. The problem is, I get so much invested (time/money) that they make great lawn ornaments but too nice to take out and ride with my friends. My latest deal came from Columbus OH. I picked up a KLT 110 just to tool around on, and after I got it home and started going through it, it's pretty cherry!! The guy got it out of a barn where it sat for at least 15 years he was told. He got it running, but barely. I went through the fuel valve and carb, quick oil change, valve adjust (they didn't need any adjustment) and it's a one pull machine. So should I swap out the tires (don't wanna use up a set of original tires) and ride it, or start restoring it as I rarely see these. The tank and fenders are pretty nice, and if I crash it I would be hating life. What do you fellahs think?
