Good job Javier!!!!

As for the fenders, if you are going to ride it, put aftermarket fenders on, keep the originals for showing it off to people :)

Easily the nicest Tecate I have ever seen. Makes mine look like a pile of trailprotrailpros. What is that extra piece on the frame on the left side at the bottom of the engine cradle? Did it come stock with a fuel filter? Dont worry about the fenders, there are plenty of them here in the states. Could you tell us the VIN# by chance? Thanks for sharing your treasure with us!

Dear friend Ezmoney1979 , you made a very good job with your tecate i had watched it .you can to watch in this pic it had installed foot guards that first owner installed this parts are welded to frame ,i want cut it but later i think is good for save cases and water pump,no no is original fuel filter but i put it forever in my bikes.
Chassis number is JKAXTMB15HB5033XX.

Thanks Dimitris, you are the same too. A question, you will change the old rear fender decals for new reproduction ones?Possible it is will be better but i think in this way is more original or not?
Javier

I strongly believe you have to let the trike as is with the same decals to keep its originality as this is a piece of art and in my opinion U N I Q U E.

scotty , what parts you looking for? Is that a 87 or you making it a 87 ? looks like you zinc plated the sprocket hub? nice! I just finished my 87 and it was a learning experence . If you need any help pm me your # I can talk t cats all day

Hey, it's a legit 87... there's not a piece on it that hasn't been refinished every nut bolt screw is the correct piece and either nos or replated, axle, sprocket, and brake hub as well...

im pretty much down to needing:
the guide for the parking brake cable that bolts on the suspension link and a cable
an oem seat
a spark plug wrench
front tire, i'd take some rears that haven't had screws put in them too...

i've got some long gone extras that i could trade if you have anything...
