    I got my 3rd trike, A KLT250

    I got this KLT250 yesterday. Its an 83. It is pretty nice but needs a key switch, light start cluster, and a a speedo cable. I am bidding on the cable now so.
    Heres some pics.









    If you have any parts let me know. Seems to go good but I think I still like the Big Red 200s better so far. I only have about 2 hours ride time on it though.

    I paid 650 and 57 pair of brake pads for it. I was having a hard time moving the pads so why not dump them. I dont vlaue them at anything. Did I get screwed?

    Always did love these goofy looking trikes. The proportion around the forks looks funny, maybe the rake is different from any other trike. Gotta love it though. I agree with mike, don't see a KLT in that good of condition, ever. Now you have the responsibility to maintain and improve this rare trike. Chris

    Nice looking trike, I was thinking about going to look at it when it was for sale, but passed . Glad to see he dropped his price from what he was initially asking for it. The clutch is fun to have on these trikes

    Where in Maine are you? I think it will work out good. I bid on it on Ebay a long time ago but didnt have the cash to win it.

    Dover-Foxcroft. Thats right, I forgot he had it listed on ebay.My uncle had one just like yours and we used to drag race all the time, top speed were just about even against a 250es.

    Yes they do. its on the rear hub. Locks in like the lock out hubs on a 4x4 truck. the speedo will be nice too when I get the cable.

    It was difficult with the klt off the line trying to ride the clutch so the BR would pull it a couple lengths then stay about that distance for 1/2 mile. I have a KLF 110 kaw for parts. thats all
