1987 Tri Moto

[Twilight]

Theres one here thats for sale down the street for 300, I cant find any info on it though, can anyone tell me about it?

[Yamada]

Yamaha never made a trike in 1987, neither in 1986.
Do you know the model?
there was a 1988 ytm-200e to sell in the local classidied a couple of weeks ago. I called the seller and he did'nt know anything about it. and he was asking $2000. I'm pretty sure it was in fact a 84haha

[Twilight]

I'll walk down and look. I saw a tag that said 87

[Twilight]

It is indeed a 87. No pics yet.

[edog]

That Tri Moto is priceless...............

What color is it?
How many CC?
Does it have reverse?
Is it fully suspended?
Doe's it run?

I can tell you that there was NEVER a 87 Tri Moto EVER made.

I know its a 200cc , thats pretty much it, looked painted over with green(bluish) inside the cracks. He pulled it inside for the night, but I can take a better look and pics tomorrow hopefully.

[Twilight]

Its raining outside so I was able to go inside the nasty garage to look, this is what I saw on it;

Green fenders
Dual Headlights
Full Suspension
Water Cooled
200 or 250cc (might be 250, dunno)
8-10in of travel in front
Says Z200 *again might be 250*
Small gas tank *looks like a flattrack tank*
Dual Radiator
Manual
Little Cooler Rack in back
Frame looks to wrap around the gas tank, maybe im wrong.

I couldnt take pics due to his... *illegal plants* that he was growing, lol.

Sounds like Tri-z to me.

[Twilight]

Is there a 1987 Tri-Z? I mean, its not the greatest condition, but does look really nice.

[Mosh]

Never a 87 Tri-z only 85 and 86 what color was the frame?If it is a Tri-z for 300 bucks and runs and rides,sounds like a good price for it.Pic of tri-z attached for you.If it looks like this pic then it is a Tri-z.

[Twilight]

Thats what it looks like. The frame is black. Is there a way to see the year made? like a Honda ATC?

[Mosh]

There are serial numbers on the gooseneck.I am not sure what digit you need to Know,But a easy sign is if it is a six speed then it is a 86.The 86 also had a coolant overflow bottle mounted on the frame above the sprocket.The 85 had the coolant bottle under the seat and was a 5 speed.Either way 300 bucks for a running Tri-z is a good price.I mean good price too.Unless it is just beat to the ground.
