1986 225 DRS. Seen it, had to have it, paid way too much for it. But it's 99% original, including the tires. Always stored inside & well maintained, don't find them in this condition around here very often.

Wow, that is nice. Congrats on such a good grab!

The 86's are fairly rare right?

Yeah, I see about five 85's for every one 86 I find. At least thats the ratio around my neck of the woods.

According to my Yamaha dealer, black or blue were the only colors available, yet both of my 86's are yellow. I think it might have something to do with these being Canadian trikes.

Nice find. That is the 2nd yellow 86 I've seen, most of the 86 I 've seen were black/red with gold rims.

Yes you are correct.
It's a Canadian upgrade i think.

Actually, (correct me if I'm wrong) the DX was made from 83-86 & the DR was made in 85 & 86. A DR is basically a DX with reverse, also the rear shock on a DR looks like it has a heavier spring on it. (I might be wrong about that too)

No,1986 dx 3 wheeler,the heavier spring was a option.There was a 1986 YTM 200 DXS Moto 4 made.Never seen one though.

But they were not three wheelers.They did make a YTM 225 T Moto 4.
