anyone got an idea what this pipe might be worth, or what it will do for my 185?

It should be a major improvement over a stock pipe. It will be somewhat louder but should wake the trike up real nice. You might even have to rejet, but play that by ear once you install the pipe. Just keep a close eye on your spark plug and let the color of the spark plug tell the tale on if you need to rejet or not. That is a fairly rare piece, wish I would have seen it. PK Racing made some good parts. I know I really enjoy my PK racing suspension 70 and I have a PK Racing kitted suspension 185s.

thanks for commenting vealmonkey.:beer i was hoping you'd stop in here. when i saw the pipe i knew i had to have it!! i've actually never heard of pk racing and thats the reason i bought it. hoping we'll be able to chat in my "project fatass" thread.

Always happy to be able to help, even though on a couple of occasions I've been wrong. I try not to give out bum info, but it happens on occasion. I never tried to lead anyone astray, but I've mixed up my info on trikes 2 or 3 times.
