Can't see no pics, but that sounds really steep to me! I could see if it was all original OEM tank, plastics, tires,Etc... would really help though if you can get pictures up!

3500 sounds way to much.. then again each state is different for trike prices. I could find a mint 350x in the 2 grand range here in MN. You kind of have to find others and see what there going for to price yourself.

how do i post pics? it does look like a sweet bike. Im going to offer him 2500 once i have the cash and see what he says. The thing is that they arent for sale around here. ive never seen one for sale and ive only ever seen one in person. this one is not up for sale i just put up an add on a local site saying that im looking for one, the closest one i found was in ontario wich is a 5 day drive.

I think that's too high. My opinion is keep looking and be patient one will pop up. I jumped the gun twice on ok machines
only to find the same one in better shape cheaper within weeks. I don't think they are as rare as some sellers like to think, at
Least not here in NY.

Its really hard to say. They are way more abundant here in the states. Here, that one would prolly be less than 2 grand easy. It's all about supply and demand! :)

Like they say, I don't know how it is up in Canada there with trike availability but he is asking way too much. Maybe if the machine was all original and only ridden once every 5 years in circles then put back away could I see paying $3500. I'm thinking even your offer of $2500 is too high. My opinion.

3500$ is a huge price for this trike, no matter where you live. However I live in British Columbia Canada and they are next to impossible to find. I watch the internet steady and they pop up once in awhile, if I am prepared to travel for days and in Canada 2000$ is about the cheapest I have seen a 350x and it needed work. I gave up on getting a 350x and I was dealing on a 250r that was 6hrs away. The seller sent me pics and in the background was a beat up 350x. I bugged this guy for months. He finally agreed to let me look at it. After waiting for years and traveling most of the day I didn't care anymore about price. I bought the trike with a pit in my stomach knowing that I over paid. THat was just about a year ago I am still ordering parts off of E-bay. I have had a add wanting parts and have had 2 responses from guys asking me if I have any parts for sale.

I just went through a bunch of Kijiji adds through out Canada and did find a few 350x 's. One was 1500$, the next one was 3000$ and finally the 3rd was 4000$. I was surprised the cheapest one did not look too bad. Two of these machines were in Quebec and one in Ontario. So days away from British Columbia. Also the 1500$ trike was not nearly as nice as the trike you found.
