Pick this up pretty cheap and now I'm in the process of redoing it. It's a 1984 Yamaha YTM 225DX, shaft drive, 5 speed, electric start. It smoked when I got it but ran well. I sent the jug out and it checked out ok and is getting a fresh hone and a new westco stocke bore piston and rings. The head is also getting work done to, nothing special just valves, seats and guides. While I have the engine out the rest is being sandblasted and painted.

Just wondering if anyone else remembers when three wheelers was the $hit?

I just got the jug back today and waiting on the gasket kit to come in. I got most of the parts sand blasted but still got to do the frame. I still don't know if I'm painting it White or Light Blue. Whata Think?
 
I have been keeping my eye out for a cheap 3 wheeler also.What are some good two stroke ones?
