craigslist is paying off! I posted an ad looking for a rear caliper for my 85R. after 2 weeks I got a call and guy has a bunch of 85 parts, wants 25 bucks for rear caliper. When I got there he had a whole trike that he stuffed a 480 motor in then cut the frame and got bored with it. for 100.00 I got a durablue eliminator axle, swingarm with RAD carrier, rear brake set-up,whole front end with new front tire and brake, radiator, tank and scoops, whole wiring harness, all cables and clutch, new swinger bearings and more misc. all these parts were super clean and newly rebuilt or in great shape. I am going to use almost all the front end and that sweet ass axle,carrier, and brake.

only thing he had left was a set of 12 paddle ultra litel haulers on red lable douglas. the front tire was a dual rib with a custom billet flame front wheel. he spent over 1000 on the tires and wheels and never used them, asking 350.00
then he had a set of V-force reeds that were run once on the bike i bought, asking 100.00. if your interested email me I have his #. that front wheel was pretty sick, never seen anything like it on a trike.
