So, Before I bought my 200x I really wanted a 350x but being a teacher, with their salary, I was unable to gather the funds to get one (cheaperst around was atleast a grand). So when I saw my trike for sale for only $500 I jumped at that since that was my entire budget. ( If I had patience I could have just saved 500 one month and 500 the next)


So now on Craiglist there is a 1985 350x runs strong with a 410cc kit, piped, jetted, etc. FOR ONLY $650!!!!!!!! :( :( :( :( :(


If only it came around at the end of the month, and I wasn't going on vacation next month....I would have gotten it INSTANTLY!

Don't feel bad, happens to us all. If I have money, couldn't buy squat, but once I"m broke the deals fall from the sky :rolleyes: I can't complain too much though, I've gotten lucky with my last few finds. It'll come around.

hey Rocker....... been there, done that. :beer But it never fails right?... when you are looking its not there, when you aren't looking they are there.... when you can afford it its not there, when you can't afford it they are everywhere. :rolleyes:

Offer the seller a small bonus to hold it for you with a deposit... It's worth a shot, and would be far cheaper in the long run than modding a 200x....
