http://sarnia.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-Honda-3-wheeler-W0QQAdIdZ228739846
That one there is pure BS, and I'm sure that the guy selling it knows it.

84 200M $800
http://sarnia.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-1984-honda-three-wheeler-W0QQAdIdZ240599010
This ones not as bad, but I'm sure you could get it for like, $400 down there.

This is what I'm talking about, 85 Big Red, $300, but it's missing the starter and carb...

What do you think, these people are retards. There's no way all of those are worth the asking price. I'm not saying there worthless, I love em as much as the next guy on here, but really?

The 200's is the only one that looks extremely high. The others is about what I see on craigslist everyday.

um ya we get hosed on 3 wheelers up here. There are a few deals but they are far and few between.

If ya want a beat up big red that smokes and the plastic is bashed and broke, its close to a grand.

Now a clean running 250r hell thats 2 g's or more alot of the times.

I think if I ever won the lottery, I would buy a Semi & Trailer, a laptop and air card and go travel the US and buy a tonne. Then bring them back up here and sell them and make a tonne and I mean a tonne of cash.....

Prices in N.S Canada suck. I bought an 1986 250SX with no breaks and a bad rattle in the top end for $550 and have offered $800 for it, i like it too much to sell. I bought a parts 1985 SX for $175 with no carb plastic and seat. The frame was in need of repair. The other day i bought 200M with a cracked frame (turns out the frame it f**ked) for $300 but started third pull. My buddy's all think i have struck gold with all of them. I would kill for deals i see on here all the time lol.

Retards!?

How do you say it? Ah, yes. Capitalism. You should be quite familiar with that by now.

Seriously, the situation up here IS retarded. You, see, parking a threewheeler by an igloo for 25years and riding in salty snow day in and day out will do a number on it! Not many units are as clean as what you'd find in the south western states. For example, I just paid $2700 for an '85 R a few months ago that NO ONE would ever pay more than $800 for in AZ or CA. The entire thing was shot, but, it had potential and wasn't rusted! It was a bargain for me at it's current $4000 total!
Yes, I get them in the States too but out of five 250R's ALL have been around 5~7K when all was said and done.

So, it all boils down to how much spare income you have and how bad you want or need one.

It's still retadred though.

you know someone could make a killing in that business... my brother and I picked up the Free trikes that was posted on here a few weeks ago and now have 3 running 200's for under 200 in parts. but you can pick up decent water cooled Rs and 350x's for about 1k here any day of they week, at 2k a pop profit it'd be worth it. Too bad I didn't have the money to get something like that going, or one of you canucks would become my new best friend.
