Tri-moto 125 problems

[dirtface]

Looks like I'm picking up a rough Yamaha 125 3-wheeler for $50.00. It is complete, What are some of the known problems with these trikes? Are they usually worth putting a couple bucks into? Any input helpful, I know nothing about these.:lol: :lol: :beer

Fun trikes, wheelie machines. What year, 82 and later are the best as there are more parts available. Easy to get more cc's from the engine. They will respond to all the 2 stroke tricks. There are ways to get a kick start and manual clutch if you want, you just have to swap out lower ends. And 2 stroke simple.

Use a bottom end Veal was talking about. They have them on the dirtbikes.

Well, I went and picked it up. It is all there, the plastic is faded, dirty and chalky looking. It is a 1985, and I'm still not positive what to do with it yet. If someone can post the picture for me PM me your email and I'll shoot the picture to you.
