    New bike (PICS)

    This is getting out of hand. I now have 6 trikes. This 85 250sx is the newest addition. It is in incredible shape. New tires, plastic perfect, tank perfect, and runs perfect. It is 100% complete. I also bought a nice 125m and blown 200e Big Red last weekend. The red is getting the top end rebuilt. Let me know what you guys think. Try to guess what I am paying for it.
    Current line up
    1983 185s great shape
    1985 ATC70 Lifan project
    1982 200e Being Rebuilt
    1984 125m Wifes Ride
    1984 200s Roller
    1985 250sx Great shape

    We have a whole thread about Trail Pro's, if you search Trikesylvania for it

    I'm guessing $450? That's a nice SX for any price, though
    I'm back in the USSR...

    Really nice. If you get some new OHTSU's on it, it'll look nearly new.

    It was a old mans that died, then sat in the garage for a long time. His wife finally decided to clean out the garage and was going to throw it away. Her neighbor "hauled it off" for 50 bucks. He put these new tires on it and had a shop rebuild the carb. This owner then sold it to his buddy. Thats who I am getting it from. 600 Bucks.

    On the specs page it shows the 185s and 250sx have the same size tire. If so I will put the almost new ITP mudlites on my 185s on it.

    That is nice! I'll give you $620 for it.
    I would change the diff. fluid and drive the piss out of it. It will last forever. Oh, and if it needs a new battery, be sure to buy the right one. The $25 battery fits it, but you need the $50 battery that it calls for. Would have been nice to be on the deal that the $50 guy got.

    You can only use 9" large bell rims, or larger on the rear, due to the big drum brake. If im not mistaken, the 185 has 8" rims. Your gonna love that rear suspension over your other rides!

    Suspension is nice but not that big of a deal to me. I have previously had a 83 200x and a 86 200x. They where awesome but I love riding anything. I just found tonight that my 185s's motor mounts are cracked. I am sure its from riding it so hard.
