What did i just buy?

[svtkeith]

Can anybody tell me what this is? I paid 60 bucks for it and got it running in 20 min. Its an 86 Yamaha... that's as far as my knowledge about trikes goes. Thanks

Also, it has reverse and is shaft driven.. and the stamp on the motor says 1500 cm3? Sorry for being so noobish

[codemanlyons]

iam pretty sure it is a YTM225dxl if it has rear suspension that is what it is if not its a ytm200

[svtkeith]

It does have rear suspension. Nice, now where can I get a new front tire?

[old-yellow]

Need a better picture and what does the rear seat say?

[codemanlyons]

What size is the tire?

[svtkeith]

dam cell phone pictures. I will snap a few real ones tomorrow. The seat says "Shaft"

[aldochina]

seat says shaft, thats a real sweet deal for 60 bucks! Just looks like its been sitting awile. Give it a good shine and post back

[svtkeith]

Front tire is 22x 11-8

Yea the dude thought is was seized. The pull start was broken and the battery was dead. Both were easy fixes and after some fresh gas and oil she ran like a raped date.

I took her for the first official trial ride today, it ran well and I didn't die.. nice... I power washed it and it removed about 15 years of grime build up on the plastics. The bike looks amazing now!
