I used to have one of them, got it brand new in 1985 and finally sold it in excellent condition in 2010! That 3 wheeler was awesome and so tough, after watching this video I wish I never sold it!!
Wow, this trike is in mint condition. Rare in Canada. Lots of 84 200es's around, but the 85's in any flavour are getting rare. Except the 250es, there are still lots of those around.
Compression release adjustment/ operation needs to be checked. It shouldn't yank you're arm out of so socket when it operates correctly. Also timing chain has bad slack. Need to adjust tension by someone who's familiar with it. It's fairly easy tho. Could be stretched timing chain & bad guides as well though....
I just bought one for $300 . It's a roach ; smokes , plastic's in bad shape , fork seals blown , etc. I'm in the process of fixing it up . Should be a fun project that I can lose money on .
