Apparently, this guy who ran an atv salvage yard called me and said he had everything but the engine, of a very very small yamaha trike.

I've only saw the picture of a small suzuki in the latest DirtWheels, and it looks like a 50 or something.

Any ideas on rough value? He wants 20 for it.

ok you say he had everything but the engine of a small yamaha? then you saw a picture of a small suzuki? did you mistake the forst part?

now if he wants 20 for it it doesnt matter what he's got its still a trike and 20 bucks is a steal. now if its a suzuki frame like the title says it would be well worth 20, in my area i have never seen a suzuki trike in years.

From what he says it's roughly complete except the engine, ala frame, axle wheels, brakes, frontend, tires, ect.

He was supposed to go to the salvage yard 30 minutes away sunday to get pictures, but the weather was too bad to go.

I meant the only small suzuki trike I've ever saw was in the latest Dirtwheels. Tiny little thing, tiny, tiny, tiny.

Sounds like an ALT50. Very tiny.

Does it look like this? The yellow one is a Suzuki ALT50, the Blue one is a Yamaha YT60.

Its an alt50, has suzuki clearly on the tank.

Rare trike? Rare frame? Any info on value? Money a bit strapped at the moment, and even 20 could go somewhere.

well look on ebay, if parts are chea, which i'm sure they are, you have a good start for 20 bucks. Do a little at a time, and if you got a kid or a little brother i'm sure they'd be thankful.

Rare? Depends on who you talk to. I currently own 4 and have owned 6 in the last 2 years. Do you have a pic? I would be willing to buy it off you for the right price depending on condition. I know you are in Alabama, but they are pretty easy to ship.

In my opinion you cannot go wrong for $20.00 I have tons of parts for them and could help you out for not to much $$$ if you get it. I will PM you.
