There is quite a few trike guys up there around New York and Ohio. I have an 85 ATC250R, 2 more R frames to get together, an 85 Tri Z, a tri zinger, 85 Tecate, and a whole bunch of ATC70's.. Best place for them is the west coast for sure though..

Whoever had the motor before decided it would be a good idea to cut out the intake bridges on the cylinder. The cases are cracked between the crank and the tranny. not a huge crack but cracked..

All is not lost. I just welded up my K5 cases. I believe they will work just fine. Similar sounding damage. :-D 8-)........... It can be done.

I envy you guys that can still find them in your area,but I'm also a bit jealous too. :-P
