I think there is a few great things that are gonna happen here with this deal. #1, she cant wait for me to go to Erie fishing because I will return with her trike. #2, this keeps her off my R. #3, I get to use some of the new excuses Ive been working on when she beats me in a race, again!!!

Congrats on scoring that TriZ, Regina. That one is a really good deal for the money. It should look great on the 2014 calendar (even if it is a Yamaha..... haha).

3Queen
11-29-2012, 02:14 PM
Thank you keister, Yes it will be in the calendar of 2014.. I love that Tri-z since I seen it up for sale.. But I had some very nice trikes offered to me, like the one in Tenn. that were very good deals. I will put it to you this way. Last night I didnt sleep much, had trikes on the mind!! Ill show you why I lost sleep, this is another one that was offered to me. What do you guys think??? http://memphis.craigslist.org/mcy/3413888692.html Has stage 2 work done and a DG pipe, +12 swinger and head is cut down.:confused: So far still going with the one in Ohio because it is set up more for what I am looking to do and wont have to worry about shipping.

It is a sad day when the wife is begging the old man for a trike for each type of race!! ONE for MX, One for draging, one for ice racing and one for the woods LOL I am working on my friend to get the Tri-z from Tenn. because he likes dragging and then I can ride it to HA HA HA

just ben

ONE for MX, One for draging, one for ice racing and one for the woods LOL two bikes and a bunch of parts is all you need.or one well tuned all around bike.don't tell Diane I said that. I have her believing I need one for each type of racing,along with a backup lol.

Glad to see the excitement Regina. I figured better to pass it on to someone who will ride it rather than have another one just sittin, I have a lot of them. Glad to see it go to a memeber and just maybe this will spread the 2 strokes a little further into the female classes. Can't wait to see ya rippin' around on it. Don't forget the 1-800-TRI Z hotline up there in Conesus...:lol::lol:..... Sorry Raffa.....just branching out for team Tri-z.....lol........charge your phone up good.:p

'86 Tri-Z that's a nice ride! Enjoy :)

3Queen
12-09-2012, 10:56 AM
Yes I got 86 Tri-Z got some bugs but I worked on it last night Dave had me take out the carb clean it and took out the jets.. Did not have the jets it was call for it in the manual (thank god for the manual) It makes it look like I know what I doing.. There was a 320 main the manual call for a 470 so put a 470 in it.. And checked the spark plug 1st on was filed put new one in and it seemed to be running lean.. So today I am going to look at the electrical, C.D.I, Primary coil, Secondary coil.. Hoping after testing them I find out why she is falling on her face when I hit mid range..

You are very welcome! Like I said boots will make you feel sturdy and are protecting your ankle and calf. And just lift up the shifter a spline if you have any issues. And I shift by angling my thigh outwards rather than lifting my hole leg. And the kicker is so much easier then it was at TF. Your a taller girl so the Tri-Z should fit you well. Just bring a spare fuel pump rebuild kit to TF13.

You also seem to have some natural talent on trikes. I've seen a guy swing a leg on CR125 and he never rode one; PERIOD. That guy hit the hills and the track like Jeremy McGrath would have. We were all shocked, he just had it in him and it was crazy.

Look at you, leaning way over on a Tri-Z roosting a corner, I love it!! :beer

Let Dave borrow your boots while he shakes in them and lend him a bucket to cry into :lol:

3Queen
12-09-2012, 07:29 PM
Nothing will be like kicking my 350X over with the decompression cable not hooked up like it was at TF... When it takes two legs and all my body wt. 2 kick it over anything is alot nicer to kick over.. Thanks for the compliments wish there was better pics. both pics were when I just got into the turn farther in the turn I had it side ways and bigger roosts.. I think that is the funnest is sliding around corner like that!!!

Just a heads up - the 86 Z is a 320 on the main and the 85 is a 470. Who knows which carb is on there tho. I think on mine I ended up at like 500 (weird) I also had another one that wouldn't run right until I had below a 300 in it.

http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthread.php/126115-YTZ-250-Tri-Z-Service-Data?highlight=service Ok I have to see what carb that is in it, it is a 86 Z with a 85 engine.. So how will I know if I have a 85 or a 86 carb and know what size main to put in it.. And is this 84 manual not going to help me????

I think it's time to change your profile pic Regina! Youve come along way from that old Yammy you currently have on there. Get that Z out on a nice day and get Dave to snap a fresh pic for ya.

3Queen
12-09-2012, 11:15 PM
I am going to sleep on this, Main jet, larger numbers mean richer jetting, smaller numbers mean leaner jetting... Is this why it ran rich with the 320 main and with the 470 it is running lean maybe I need to put the 320 back in but with the 320 and the 470 it still is running the same so I am still in the same boat....it still is falling on it face at mid rag
