Def 84. $500 is a good deal. That is pretty clean.....................and the front suspension doesn't look trashed.

Hang on guys that looks like the same bike in this pic many of miles apart. Is one of these a scam? http://evansville.craigslist.org/mcy/2721318261.html Looks Canadian with the reflectors. Hum and another http://www.adoos.com/post/2648821/1984_honda_big_red_200se_3wheeler :wondering

funny, the 3wheeler in the second pic looked very familar to me for some reason and it just dawned on me where i saw it. it's from the first link swampthang posted. i've been seeing that listing for Boonville (east of Evansville, IN) past couple months and that is the first one they had listed with a pic that i've seen. that one might just be coincidence because it's only $400, i think that guy just happened to use one of those pics, but you never know. now that second one is Spencer which is up by Terre Haute. now i think that one does go with fabio's link.

for what the boonville guy has pictured yeah $500 seems too good, but like i said i don't THINK he's the same guy, just happened to use one of those pics and that one is the first one of his i have seen with a pic in it. of course i also said that "you never know" too. :lol:

It's hard to tell if the big red in the pictures is owned by any of the 3 guys that posted the ads. I just did a image search and typed in big red and that picture comes up a few times. Like I said the trike has the reflectors on it which usually means it came from out of the states. So its hard to tell whats going on. I would just stay away of these guys. Don't send them any money or anything like that with out physicaly seeing the bike.

well, the pics are secondary really IMO. if there's something i find or a buddy asks me about, then the things i look at are in the description given, phonenumber, stuff like that basicly. if things are questionable then i start to dig further into it. only had one bad experiance, but that's all it takes.

Good eyes boys. I noticed the Canadian reflectors and thought it was a bit odd for a second, but I didn't think it was a scam for whatever reason. Seems like it is after all though.

I went fishing!! Sent him an email to see the response.

See if it comes back.."I am currently working overseas, once payment is arranged I have a shipping arranged to send you the machine, blah..blah."

I'll let you know..
