Engines fetch 300 to 700,boxes 150 to 400,alternator around 40,starter around 60,rear axle 200 etc. I thinkn8 can make a bit iff of it.

I think you'd be better piling up all the bits that fit in your shed & then selling the frame as a trike project.

Parts for Roland are only going to get more expensive after all.

Had it got a logbook as a trike? Probably worth a bit for that if it has.
