I have about an hour to decide if I want this trike. Its a 1985 350X. It runs great and doesn't smoke. Frame is not cracked and bearings are tight. It has a new aluminum rear skid, supertrapp exhasut(not pictured), wheels and tires as you can see, also new bars, grips, throttle cable, pet cock, seat bushings, K&N and fork seals replaced with new OEM boots. It also has the tool box. What do you think. I haven't kept up on values since I bought my 1986 I currently have right now.

Thanks, Chris

Heck yea!

That's 86/87 200Xs price range, even lower.

Go for it man, looks nice.

Does it need anything or it's all mechanically sound?

Thanks guys. I'm appreciating the encouragement. I've ridden the trike before. Its a freinds. My freind is selling it becasue he bought a Polaris Rzr and needs the money. I'm confident in the mechanical soundness. I guess from what you guys are saying, its worth $1300. Its a nice rig. I would like to get red plastics for it though so its period correct. It also comes with paddles and a almost new clarke white plastic tank.

I don't like being forced to make a quick decision, and lots of people want you to!

Could be a deal, could have big problems. I'd look it over real good, ride it and listen to it.

He's the one that said he only has an hour and from the info he has given us, it seems like a great deal and since it's his freinds it even sounds like a better deal now.

You know the history of the moto clong ?

If it's mechanically sound that's a decent price. It looks to be in better shape than the one I paid $1000 for recently.

How's that RZR? I want to check those out.

It looks like I have more time to decide. He had a guy coming to see it and thats why I had to make a quick decision. They guy flaked so now I can ponder it some more. I have no doubt that this is a solid 350X and the deal is right. I am just having a hard time deciding to buy another 350X when I alreayd have one. I'm trying to think of a reason to collect 350X's.

To answer your question on the Polaris Rzr's, they are so awesome. Very expensive at $12,500 OTD, but man that thing is a blast to drive. It pitches out around every corner, flys over woops, jumps sever feet in the air and lands smooth and tops out at 60+mph. Out of the hole its spins them so much that if you want the hole shot, you gotta punch it in 4wd. Definately a solid fun reliable fast buggy.

heres a good reason. in 10 years, it will be worth alot more than what you paid for it.
