    NewB to this site......

    Greetings fellow trikesters. I just picked up a clean and visually stock 86' 250R trike. Some of you probable recognize my username from other MX related web sites. Here are some pic's of my trike.







    I plan over this summer to tear it apart, have the frame PC'd black, extend the rear axle 3-4"'s new rims, plastic, seat cover, bars, rebuild forks, shock, buff out the tank and shrouds for starters.

    Welcome! Awesome find. Looks as clean as they come. Make sure you keep us updated (with pix) as you progress.
    Know any history on it?
    You have any plans to race it? Dune it? Garage queen it?

    Pic's won't be a problem. I plan to ride it where ever and when ever. I want to get her in the dunes against my bro-in-laws Tri-Z. He's a member here and will chime in sooner or later.

    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY SH-T, what a ride!"

    Thanks for the reply's fella's. Yes, Jr. you can ride my R when ever you decide to go to your moms. I rode it yesterday and it brought back memories of my teens riding and aircooled R. I did manage to tip it twice on the trail.
