Unfortunately last year I missed Ditchmud's trike circus event due to me moving into my house. I've been to this event the other years and have had a great time-this year I'll be sporting my new 85 250R; just picked it up yesterday. It's in pretty clean condition, plastics are good, brakes work, good rubber all around, nice chrome pipe and polished douglas rims, runs like a top-got it from a guy that was selling it for his dad; I guess his family thought the dad shouldn't be riding it anymore at 59 years old :cool: . Only been rebuilt once-and besides the blue painted engine I'm happy with it. Not sure if I'll be able to bring my X or not but I'll for sure bring this-what do you guys think? The lighting wasn't the best for pictures-it actually looks better in person.

Looks like a nice machine, mine is tore down and sitting on tabels and in boxes right now. A few simple repairs ended up me tearing mine down to the frame gonna get it powdered now.

GREAT looking trike but I agree, the blue engine paint, has to go. :wondering

Hope my kids don't try to sell my toys at age 59. They'll have to catch me first...
