Well 10 years ago I sold my two 3 wheelers. A 1984 Honda 250r and my favorite aka The Beast, a 1982 Honda 185s.

I got the 185s as a basket case with weeds growing through the motor and it had not been ridden in many years. This was about 20 years ago. I rebuilt the complete bike for $50 and I only paid $50 for it to start. I gave it to my little cousin and he rode it for 5 years with no mechanical issues, although we did replace the steel gas tank that started leaking on a seam. I still have the the tank in the garage. In the picture, you can see the larger plastic tank. I ended up selling them both after picking up three other quads,
I built a frame up 1986 Trx250r quad with a CT310cc top end with a long rod kit and jug spacer.

Both have been really great bikes, but I want to get another 185s. When I sold the 3 wheelers, I had run out of space on the trailer for all five bikes and my Ford Bronco.
We are looking for desert property now and I will be able to store the bikes out at the desert for friends to ride.
I also want to get a XR600R chassis and put a Electric start Crf450x or Trx450er motor in it. Then make it a fat cat two wheeler for the dunes. We shall see.
