I found this place from their Ebay store and since it was only about an hour away I decided to go check it out n see what they have. I tell ya, this guy has tons and tons of parts. A whole corner of the place is dedicated mostly to three wheelers, and they are also scattered throughout the place. The sport trikes have been picked over pretty bad. I took a few pictures while I was there for those interested. One of the interesting things I found was a 83-85 200x frame with a 86-87 200x engine in it. I always thought that engine was too tall but It looked like it was pretty much a drop in fit. just need to re configure the mounts.

That can't be a 200X motor in that frame. There's no kick starter.

I think Garageboy34, here on the boards, is part owner of that place.

We have been going there for years now.He does have some good trike stuff laying around.They also have locating services too,so if they dont have it,they can find it.
You used to be able to go walk thru there,and find some nice trike stuff.

My friends have found some nice pieces out there.One of the only Bills pipes for a TRI-Z came from there,and you used to be able to find Hondaline headlight guards for 5 bucks there.

The best thing is,the owner is a avid trike guy.He has a really laid out waterpumper that he takes out from time time.

Garageboy is not a owner of that place,but he is really good friends with the owner.

They also deal with quads and streetbike stuff too,and new parts as well.Check em out!

p.s. Cycles -R-Us is in Medina Ohio.

He tried to shyster me ........

I listed a gold motox wheel at findmypart.com I think it was called, which then sends your want add to a lot of salavge places.

I specifically asked that I must see wheel and it must be in fairly nice shape with not many nicks and gouges, so what does he do, emails me $200, no desription, no nothing, JUST $200 when he states .....

We don't offer pictures but we do guarantee our parts to be as described &
for the application requested or your money back


After 2 or 3 more emails and with him constantly avoiding a desription it finally hit me, I'll bet he doesn't even HAVE the wheel yet and sure enough once I mentioned that, it shut him up.

His answer was, before I figured it out, to pay for the wheel and then and only then will he send me a picture of it and then if I don't like it he will refund my $$. What a backwards way of doing buissness :rolleyes:

I do realize to take pictures of every part that every customer asks is a lot of work and EVERY salvage yard that I dealt with for a wheel is the same way, NO PICTURES, I really think they should have a policy where you pay 5-10 bucks for a few pictures and if you want the part, you get your picture $$ or a %age of it back and if you don't want it, they keep it.

Lots of parts don't really need pictures but that was not the only issue, the other one of course being that he hid the fact that he doesn't even have the wheel and then gave me a price with out knowing himself what shape it was in!
