Was wondering if this is worth 900 bucks and a 2 hour drive to get it, all it needs is a kicker boss, are they hard to come across?111959

It's tough to say from just one pic. You have to remember you're dealing with a 25+ year old machine. It's probably going to need a lot of time and money to make it reliable, unless somebody went through it recently. Just from that pic I'd say it's more of a $700 machine, but it's just one pic.

I agree with fabiodriven. Very soon that rig will be at $900 (but not as of right now), as popularity grows and aftermarket parts are now becoming readily available. But I have bought 2 (in a little better shape) for that price. $500-$600, considering that 3-wheelers seem to be a little more there. As for the time to drive, I'll go as far as I need to save a 3-wheeler. Over 6 hr. round trip drive for my daughters $300 125m, it's always worth the drive, IMO.

I just noticed you are in Canada, so that very well may be a good price.

The forks need to be flipped around. I bought an 85 that had the brake on the wrong side too.

^Yeah, I was about to say.

I'd go check it out and see it run in person- from a cold start of course. If it feels like it runs fine and shifts fine, then it'd be worth that price up there :)

Cause you never know when you will meet up with someone else who likes to get loaded and ride three wheelers.

didnt 84 have a gold swingarm? why is the swingarm silver like the 85 model? could be a conglomeration of two bikes into one?
