Actually my first trike was some 250r looking powerwheels thing from the late 80s. My uncle bought it for me. I have pictures of it from when I was around 2. I will definately post them when i find them. Thing was sweet. I actually remember riding around on it.

The rear wheels and tires are from my 82 185, thought they were cool to slide around on

Nice first bikes guys. Here is my first 350x. I bored it .020 over with a Wiseco 10.5:1 and a DG stage 1+sparky. That was my cleanest bike I have had yet. I sold if earlyer this year for $1200. I bought a waterpumper 250r.

What kind of headlights are those? Mine just burned out the other day. Good thing I wasn't on a trail in the desert. Them cows like to sneak up and flip you. Trike tipping is their sport.:lol:

lol the headlights are actually a 30$ pair of driving lights i used to have on my car, got them at canadian tire i believe, there only 15 or 20 watts each tho so you need to hook both of them up to the low or high beam circuit otherwise when you rev it the just blow bulbs. im actually looking for a better suggestion if anyone has one..

Not bad. Also, do you have a on-off-on switch on the throtle housing or is your a twist throttle? I had to replace mine the other day and all they had was one without it. The switch which goes on the left side was worth an eye so I had to hotwire a toggle switch from blowes and stuck it on the hole where the mirror mounts.

Btw, I love that picture of yours. Are your plastic parts that nice or do they just look like that when wet?

they only look that good when its wet, its really quite faded and the otherside is broke almost off (previous owner rolled it) my kill switch is on the left hand side and not part of the throttle , just a regular old thumb throttle on that one. I dont like how a twist feels on it, i did try it and took it off a week later. thx for the compliments as well :) and merry christmas guys!

I wish I could find a pic of mine..... my old 1982 185S I bought for 200$ from one of my highschool teachers. I put ALOT of hard miles on that trike....even when I parted it out it was still somewhat running..it got run everyday. If I find a pic I'll post it up.

Well, I finally got a recent pic of mine today. This is me sucking down a cold one (dr. pepper) in front of what looks like hell :twisted:
. Hmm...This one is a little bit toned down. The other one looks like I am sucking down the fire through a bugle or something.
