You guys that have a selection of them (3 wheelers that is ) (freinds too I guess :D ). You ever let a freind ride one with you for a day and it turns out he gets one then too?

I'm just wondering if that theory will work on my step brother? He hates them only because HE doesn't know how to ride them so I'm thinking if I bought another, that theory might work on him + a few other possible "haters" that I know.

I guess it could work the opposite way and he'll hate them even more :wondering

Some people just don't and never will get the knack for riding them.

Nothing wrong with that! Whatever excuse it takes to add to the toy collection I say. Just like the saying goes, boys never grow up just get bigger / more & better toys.

That is a good excuse but it also is true. See how nice oif a guy I am :D

I'd go out and buy another 3 wheeler just to turn someome else on to the sport or if it back fires, turn them off to the sport :rolleyes:

They own a 450R and a Raptor.
First thing they comment on is how smooth my R rides, how light it feels and how maneuverable it is.
I agree!
AND.....I have about 1/3 of what they spent on their quads invested in mine.
That thought has to bother them. :cool: :p

Would they get a trike?
They can't....they're saddled with a quad payment! :D

I always lived by the saying: He who dies with the most toy's wins! ( My wife will say I have the lead ). lmao

i hear ya BRH. that is the truth, brotha from a different motha. everytime i go out with quads guys they are blown away on how good my sx is.all i say they were always good they simply forgot. i keep on getting bugged by a quad guy who wants to ride the tri-pod. i refuse. he hasn't rode a trike in years and that's all i need is to see him upside down somewhere after i spent lots of time getting it the way i like it.but i do let guys ride the 185s. my daughter prefers it to my 200trx. can't get her off the thing....she calls it hers already.ya right!

That's what I like too about them. We could have 4,5,6,7,8 trikes for what they pay for one! Some of them are so huge that body english doesn't effect them as much and that's (body english) very high on the fun factor list for me......throwing your weight all over the place to make it perform.

When I let people ride my 400cc homebuilt, they usually run away screaming, and don't think I'm right in the head after. :naughty:

Ha ha, that's great. Seems like a $$ amount comes up a lot. That has nothing to do with it whatsoever for me. I have a new 4-wheeler too, I financed the whole thing, including tax, title, and warranty. I put absolutely nothing down. My payments are still cheaper than some of my freinds who smoke. Yeah thats right a brand new 450R is cheaper than smoking.

Yep.... it's a good excuse to buy more wheelers.

I started out with my "Showgirl".... bought a Suzuki 4x4 tyo blaze trails on.... then bought a 2nd 350X after I restored the Showgirl. Then after I took both 350X's to a friends party and some "quad wannabe" kept burning up the clutch and broke the kicker lever on my 2nd 350X, I decided to find a auto clutch, tank designed 3 wheeler for newbies to start on. A month later, Holic sold me a YTM200ERN Yamahauler... then shortly after that, I bought another identical model form MIK6 that needed "some assembly required". OH... then I found a guy that had a Durablue rear axle for sale in NY on ebay. Talked to him and he sold me the axle, a complete 225DX, and a trailer and a half of misc trike parts (most Yamaha shaft drives..) for about 3X what I was going to buy just an axle off him! He showed me a nice 250R he had while I was up there, and if I had come back for the second load earlier, I could have had a running 200s too! A few months later, he decided to sell the R and decided I needed a 2-stroke to ride too. :naughty: So Huffa... watch out... next thing you know you'll have a shop full of trikes!

Yea, it's a possibility for sure. It's a blast finding them and parts.

I'll get in trouble though with the "Boss Lady" though if I buy too soon again but I just minutes ago won a really nice 225 frame for 10 bucks up in NY. I don't need it but the price was right.

Getting off the main topic but so what, who cares, so anyway I plan to powder coat it then in the winter and do a one day switcharooney with it. Who knows, maybe it doesn't even need a paint job?

I'm picking it up, so there is no shipping fee.

I think I'm coming down with a dangerous 3 wheel sickness and see you got it long ago yourself.
