the motor is great, if you read my post i just fully rebuilt the whole
thing and it has 0 hours on it, just a couple laps up and down the
street at my work where i store it and work on it. new 1 over piston
and fresh bore, new valve seals and complete head overhaul and
cleaning. A BRAND NEW honda cam and bearing, new gaskets, and the
whole nine. It starts in half a kick no problem. It's been sitting
for awhile and I notice a little puddle underneath that could be a very
minor oil leak. I completely disassembled everything so i might not
have tightened up the case bolts enough.

Personally I'd rather spend a few more hundred and have an 86 or 7 if you can any way afford it. They are that much better then the 1st generation. No comparison what so ever.

750 seems a bit high for an 83. Pictures would really help.

i thought it to be a little high for an 83 but i dont know too much on prices of machines, this is the closest 200x i can find, they are semi-scarce up here in maine

750 is not worth it if its not complete start by offering 500$ i wouldnt pay more than 575$ for it remind them parts are hard too come by especially plastic thats why it's not on the trike right? if they wont do it, leave your name and # mybe theyll call if not.3yrs later the'll get 100$ for it.
