I dug out a stack of old sales brochures that I have from 1984 and 1985 time period. They are mostly Honda, a few yamaha, and one of an 84 Kaw. Tecate. Many dirt bikes and ATC from 1984.

I looked on ebay, but most listed didn't appear to have any bids. Seemed like a buyers market. Any ideas if any of these are actually worth much?

I would only sell if there was some actual value, not just to get rid of them as they are cool to look through (every 10 years or so).

Thanks, for any input.

If you have a scanner available you might scan a few and then send them to Billy or Howdy so they can add them to the site.

Yes I have been noticing that the older the brochure the more $$ it usually goes for.

How many do you have and what would you like for them? I am doing up a room with nothing but atc/3 wheeler stuff and could use them in frames to hang on the walls.

I'm not sure I want to sell them. Only if there were something rare, that didn't mean anything to me. I may try to make of list of those I wouldn't mind selling.

I may be able to scan. Is there a page with brochures on this site that I haven't seen?

I had to do a quick look for it myself. But on the front (main) page, on the right hand side there is a link for the "Ads" of all different makes and models of trikes.

I admitt I'm a pack rat, so I'll probably end of keeping them. Although, I may try to sell some. Like some of the street bikes, or PW50, or ones that I have no idea why I even picked up in the first place .... oh, yeah, I was 14 and they were free.

Thanks, Big Red 87. That is a pretty cool site. All of those pictures look familar. I worked at a Honda dealership part time from 1986 to 1988.
