yesterday I got a trike for $50, I don't know what it is, 185 or 200, no rear suspension, has a fork in the front with very little travel,it has a recoil starter, shaft driven, drum front and rear brakes(cable driven), it missing the rear brake pedal/linkage, the foot pegs are rubber, I'll get some pic soon.

Does it run? I would think not for $50 but just thought I would ask. If it doesn't, what all is wrong with it?

[deathman53]

doesn't run right now, decompression cable is disconnected, I was told it sat for years, it got alot of compression. I'm gonna mess with it and get it running, might let my brothers wife ride it, don't know.

The only shaft drive Honda 185 or 200 is the 200es. It also has electric start, reverse, front and rear racks and hitch, well if they are still there after 20 years.
