Be careful.... these projects CAN become expensive... new gaskets.. new this new that.. assuming everything is there and nothing missing..

i wouldent get it, unless you have the money and means to fix it. i learned this the hard way with my gt80. trust me.

I am 15 and bought a ytm200EK for 130 because a idiot said it was shot and i looked and i noticed the spark plug was backfiring so i put a new plug in and it runs now! I would buy it if your parents agree and you want to have fun and buy stuff for it "if you have leftover money" - JoE

Im 13 and i bought a Honda 125m (1985) for 500$ and it needed about 80$ worth of work done to it. THen about two days ago i got a TRI MOTO 125 for free!!! But it needs an engine rebuild and im going to try to rebuild the engine. I hope it wont cost alot of money though.

I never buy a non running engine for more money than I care to loose... but if the trikes in good shape overall you can always part it out if it is too much to fix... I bought a 185s a few months back, only needed a carb rebuild... but after that I decided to do new exhaust, new brake lines, new rear tires... and now I have just about doubled its' cost....no regrets, but trikes truely define the term "disposable income".... good luck if you get it... 200m's are fun trikes...
