It all depends, I bought my honda 125m that needed 100 dollars worth of work for 500 and Im selling my Yamaha Tri-Moto 125 for 400 dollars that just needs a clean and tune up. Theres a 85 honda 200 big red @ action Honda for 1,995. So just looking through that you can get one that just needs a little work. So probably a not bad trike.

If you are Mechanically inclined- and dont mind fixing it up---Pretty much whatever you like---Deals come and go all the time-Be patient and youll find something-

Dont spend 2000 on something , cuz three days later- youllfind one in the trash pile.

I'd have to say good luck finding one of those around here... especially for that price. It's hard to find any type of "racing" trike in the atlantic region... I have a 200x.. I paid 600$ for it, but I was just lucky. I've seen a few liquid R's for sale pretty high priced though.. Seen a tri-z and a tecate for sale on one ocasion they both needed work though.
You probably can find one, but your going to have to be patient. More than likely for 700$ your going to find yourself with a utility trike.

Good luck on the hunt.

Shortforstuff nailed it, not much to pick from in Atlantic Canada. I know of an 85 R for $1000 a couple hours from me, needs 3rd gear fixed, a shock and a rear caliper...also seen an 84 R go for $600 about 2 weeks ago. I've been finding more and more perf trikes around lately, know of 2 350X's around as well, one for sale for about 2500...crazy market for performance trikes around here because they aren't common.
