I'm on my third week of trike ownership and I got third one today. Picked up a 82 Big Red.

Looks ugly but runs and its a 200! No pics yet, got the thing home at night.

Came with a set of spare tires and a spare frame, spare exhaust/carb/forks/etc.

I can't wait to get this bad boy running as well as my other 2 trikes.

It's funny... you don't see guys with 5 or 10 boats, or 5 or 10 bicycles... why ARE they so addicting? Someone needs to do a study :lol:

I think because they aren't made we feel the need to grab them up, make sure they find a good home. I want to buy everyone I see. Fortunately I have kept my addiction somewhat in check and still only have two. But if I had a huge pole barn I would fill it. But I'm working on a third...a friend of a friend new I like those weird 3 wheelers, so he says so and so has one he wants to sell. Turns out to be a Tri-Z. Just working on getting that in my collection. Nice work on the Big Red...that what I should buy.

I think you're on to something.... that's how it is for me. I see one on CL, I email about it, even though I have no spare cash and nowhere to put it :lol: I have 7 at this point... plus 2 of my brother's... and all my tools and parts... in a single car garage.

Good job getting on the band wagon! I know how you feel. Bought my first one two weeks ago (84 200 BRes) and just picked up a 1970 US90. I find myself scouring the ads daily for more! The funny thing is I've been riding quads since 1986.
