Nice score.

You should take your wife out on an elegant dinner for allowing you to shove that in the car

This is Cagiva number 2.5 for me. Matt Roby and I bought a pair last month, and we also split this one. We each had one prior to these recent purchases also.

I found this one right after TRIKEFEST From a simple Google search of all places. I contacted the owner and he disnt want to sell it. I kept in touch with him and eventually found out he lived only an hour and a half from my inlaws. We went out for Thanksgiving, met up, struck a deal and got it crammed in the Accord. This trike, even though it's mostly complete, is in pretty poor shape. It was stored in a damp shed, so the piston ring rusted and locked up the motor. I have it soaking in a 50/50 acetone/atf solution right now. I'm hoping to be able to free the motor up without ruining the plating on the cylinder. This trike was also wrecked very badly at one point, the front wheel is bent, it has non original forks, and the subframe has many welds on it. The rear caliper is missing, and the master is locked up. Mouse nest in the airbox. It's in a state of general disrepair.

Our plan is to have all 5 Cagivas at the 50th anniversary of the Pine Lake race next year. We have a 500, 3- 200s, and a 125. The entire Tricky Dick Cagiva lineup. We also want to get other people to bring their vintage trikes out so we can have a little show. Its going to be a great time, i hope everyone can make it.

Cagiva, Tiger, Franks, who cares, we want to know what happened to Swatlands flowing locks and if they will be for sale on eBay, or auctioned off at a future Trikefest?

Nice score Joe. Sounds like you may need a parts bike again. I'm on the hunt. This is what keeps us all searching.

And here I was thinking that you finally started listening to George Thorogood and heading his advice on personal grooming and employment.

In her defense he’s probably driving 85mph while staring into his camera and taking selfies.

What woman is ever amused or excited about her husband's toys? Yet they want us to get excited about the BOGO at Payless they came home with.
