Me and my dad we're doing a welding job for a farmer and i was looking around his barn and guess what i found.............A TIGER 125.........and i got real excited but i acted real calm and i asked the farmer if he wanted to sell it and he asked me what i thought it was worth.He said he bought it for his son in the 80's because his son was going to race. its in real good shape. i told him that since it was old and that it wasn't a very popular trike (which was a total lie he dosen't know anything about threewheelers) so i said i would give him $100. he shook my hand and said you've got a deal. so i brought it home and cleaned the carb and the filter and changed the spark plug put some gas in it and i started it and it fired up and i rode it for awhile then i let my nephew ride it so i'm gonna fix it up and give it to him and then when i have a son i'll give it him.:beer :w00t: :w00t: :TrikesOwn :D

Assuming your town is big enough to have a Wal Mart... Have your pictures developed, and check the box for the Pictures on CD for an additional couple dollars, then upload the pics from the cd Wally-World gives you...!!

Yea it is funny but if your going to make a claim like this (especially for $100) you best better have the proof to back it up. I've seen it a dozen times on here... No pics. Don't expect anyone to believe you.

If he bought the trike for his son to race it the farmer should have known its value.

Pics or nobody will believe you.

Where are you at in Oklahoma.... Us Midwest Trikers are all over and Im betting someone is close with a camera.

However I highly doubt this story is true. Its Oklahoma we are talking about... highly unlikely a Tiger was bought out here, much less still sitting there and sold for $100.

i got an extra digital cam i will give you to take pics of this supposed tiger. but then again, we would probably never see any pics anyways. why do people have to try and pull fast ones on us here. sick the 3ww csi team on his *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited*, i think kloby has returned.

06-02-2006, 03:11 PM
Hey guys, I know a lot of people will try and pull this stuff, but he only posted it 2 hours ago so give him a day or two to get some pics, It took me almost a week before I had pics of my Tecate and I have a digi cam and camera phone! I won't believe it until the pics come but if you keep raggin' on him he won't post them cause you all were being dinks! Just my thoughts.

I will never call some one a lier with out knowing for sure. I have been suprised many times in the past. However, I had to poke fun at the barn story. Every rare find always seems to come from a barn. i just think that is odd.

Somebody please tell me that this punk did not insinuate that farmers are stupid, out of touch, and naive. If he wasn't 12 years old, I'd drive my size 10 straight up his a**. I'll assume that he offered the $100 as that's all his father had left over from his welfare check when he left the bar. Then as he was snooping around this guys private property looking for something to steal, he found the mint condition Tiger. The farmer, realizing the kid and the ol' man would be back later to steal it, sold it to them, then wrote it off as a donation to charity on his tax forms yeilding a $1500 refund. The kid, whom has never been laid, then proposes to us all that he will give this to his son that doesn't exist, as his sister is only 10 and the ol' man makes them sleep in separate beds. Someday though........

Baaaa Baaaa, She wasn't wearing a natural wool sweater was she? lmao

We need Proof, Pictures with a paper saying 3WW on it would be great. Don't have a digital camera? take some regular pics and send them to me via mail. I will post them for you. My info is in the hat thread, sticker, thread and DVD thread.

That was the best paragraph I've read in a long time. Huge burn!

I don't know why you'd post this thread if you didn't have the pictures. You must know how sceptical and defensive we all get when someone posts like this.

OK, I'm new but I don't care. This is the second thread that has gotten so many people up in a rile. The other was the guy who was boosting his own feedback rating. As far as I know there is no 1st Amendment protection of douchebags writing stuff on the internet. This is supposed to be a forum for people who love/ride trikes. If someone is screwing with people in any way BAN THEM :banned: . End of story. If anyone lost money somewhere along the way by dealing with these people, that's a different story. IMO, by going on and on someone is getting a kick out of people who are into trikes and are laughing at people who enjoy this hobby!!! OK, end of my 2 cents....

What is wrong with you guys... I honestly wonder why I come here sometimes. You didn't even give a chance for a reply and/or pictures. It's been a whopping seven hours since it was posted. This thread should be closed.

bobbyg
06-02-2006, 08:57 PM
Whether or not my last relpy reflects that, I agree that he should be innocent until proven a liar. There are a million reasons why he hasn't posted pics by now (inability to find a camera, reluctance after reading posts, etc..). Honest, if I was him this place would be the last place to post my stuff after reading what people wrote about me. My main point was not for eveyone to get so up in a bundle over one trike or one person who did something stupid. Now these threads and others like it are more philosophical that trikeical. Hey, I made up a new word: trikeical :w00t: ....

Okay fine, but you don't have to post that. Keep the harsh comments to yourself. I mean, honestly, do you use that kind of tact when you are face to face with someone? Do you actually say, "kid, you're only 14, give me some pictures to prove you're not lying"... I seriously doubt it... Tact is not only for face to face conversations....
