Will it ever end?

[1shot]

Well, it started with me buying the 84' 200es bigred for me too ride. I loved it so much (never had a 3 wheeler) I bought 2 - 110's for the kids to ride with a seperate atc 90 parts bike. THEN, I found my cherry 85' 250es which I adopted and handed the 200es down to the wife. Great now we all had a trike but 1 kid.
Well my 14 year old outgrew his 110 in about a month so I picked up the 82' 185s last friday for him and handed down his ex-110 to the smallest girl.

SUPER GREAT !! Now we all have our own trikes and I thought I was done buying trikes.
Well today we were heading out to ride with all 5 bikes (2-110, 185s, 200es, 250es) in the truck and trailered. We stop at the gas station to fill the cans and bikes and some guy comes over to me and asks if I know anybody looking for a 3 wheeler. I wasnt too interested at first then he tells me he has a one just like the one on the trailer and points to the 84' 200es big red. I say "really?"
He says, and I qoute: It's in really good shape, clean and I have the title and everything". He then tells me everybody wants quads and there isnt a market for those damn 3 wheelers anymore. (I'm thinking, "yeah right")
He said he wants $500 for it so longer story short.........

I'm going to look at it tomorrow after work.... :cry:

10 - 1 I'll have another trike tomorrow

Will it ever end? :confused:

Tell him exactly what you just told us...You know the part about there not being a good market for those damn three wheelers anymore. Might be able to get a half decent price on it.

500 is a 1/2 decent price already! I know you mean to get it even cheaper though.

I want stuff like that to happen to me :mad:

Maybe I should just hook up my trailer, stuff the 3 wheeler in it, and put a sign on it "3 WHEELERS WANTED" and just leave it hooked up all summer long.

Where ever I go, it will be free advertisement.

lol, that's funny stuff...Although I think mine should go in the trailer since it seems like it will never run!

Well, I went and looked at the 84 200es today. ($500)
Clean - No
Great shape - no

Looks like crap, runs pretty good.
He also has a 85 250es thats missing the front tire / wheel assembly for $400

He has ALOT of misc. atc parts including a spare 200es engine, a spare 250es engine and a few repair manuals. "He NEEDS a chainsaw real bad" and was selling the bikes to buy one. I have a new Stihl MS440 that he is thinking of trading the whole ball of wax for. I'll have to take the trailer for the 2 trikes and a crap load of parts but I think It is worth it.
I'll have parts for years for the 2 big reds I already own

It sounds like you may have a problem. Three Wheelers can be highly addictive and hard to get rid of even with the best intentions!
