what should i offer?

[Yamahauler]

i phoned a guy about a trike he had for sale.
One was a 85 Honda 350X
the other was an '86 Honda 250R

for the X he wanted $2500, i thought that was pretty high
and the R he said he would take offers
i was wondering what i should offer for it?

*all the prices are canadian*

well around hear a nice R go's go around 1500$ CND the X is waaaay to high, the cleanest one iv seen the guy wanted 1900$ and its still in the paper :p

I love my X to death but I didn't get into it for the investment potential.
I think the seller has been sniffing too much Ebay. :D

I hate to say it but if he wants THAT much for the X, he has to see the '86 R as his "retirement fund". :rolleyes:

BUT.....offer him $1500 and see what he says.
I'm SURE he'll divulge "want he wants to get for it" when you say that....or chase you away with a stick! :eek: :D


Good luck!

I wouldnt sell mine (350X) for any less than $2000. Sorry, thats just me. Thing is, I know I can get that for it. :D

[350x'inNY]

well.... I know how you feel.. he probably doesn't want to rid himself of the X... so give a high price. To me, the Showgirl is priceless... though I did get some similar offers for it in the past.

offer that much for the X or the R?
he also said it was all new plastic. and the bike was in very good shape
i want a 350X real bad but i also want a truck. damn decisions!

[MO350X]

Maybe it is?
But I just can't see someone going to such lengths as Clay and Bruce did to resto one.
You guys have two SWEET X's.
Those two make mine look like an old beater. :)

I wouldn't turn loose of MINE for less than $1500.
Just because of how solid it is, the reliability, NO cost of ownership and what a nightmare it'd be to find another!!
