A guy in our group rides one, Very bad @ss. The best thing about it is you never need a new front tire. Here is a video of him climbing a tough hill

LMFAO you couldn't pay me enough top work for the government period bro lol nice machine why don't you post some pics of all your machines
right on man i use to own an 86 tecate, wicked fun i'm building an 86 honda 250r atc it's a long term project as i just started out with a frame. trikes FTW!
i can vouge and say..the tecates, period, are banshee killers. This particular T3 in the video is very very quick machine. Not a topend runner, but it gets to 70 extremely, almost dangerously fast.
Love them old three wheelers. My dad had an 84 for a while that he got on a trade he just let his buddies ride it. Guess he didnt realize the signifigance of it. He said he preferred his brand new 88 TRX250R to the Tecate though. No matter what I do to my blasty he always has to throw in his old R would kill it haha I wish he still had both. I actually prefer to ride 3 wheelers to a quad or bike
I love those green trikes, but mine proved to be a heart breaker. I had spent nearly a year searching for parts and saving up for them when I lost spark,,,,again. A leaking float valve filled the crankcase and when I went to start it, it was locked up. In gear, I pushed/pulled on the grab bar to see if it was the kicker or internal. Wheels turned the engine, piston must have forced fuel through the crank seal, filling my flywheel cover. I didn't figure it out until I started trouble shooting, pulling off the flywheel cover and the fuel running out. I knew it would be a complete bottom end rebuild and a PLV ignition system or give it up. A couple of weeks later I sold all my trikes and parts, which was a couple of days after I bought my first Blaster (for just a little more than the PLV would have cost). One thing is for sure; when the Tecate ran, it was white knuckle fast. It still have pictures of it, this was right after I got it running.

Nice looking tecate bro.Bad luck happens but I bet you wish you still had it.lol
I have one machine tore down and have been stock piling parts for months now. As soon as the snow falls then that means winter project timeI:I
