Yep lol. He if I ever go up in texas again I'll race you. My 310r vs yours. My 310r is going to get a 72mm stroker crank too so I'll have maybe 345cc's? I'm not sure. I can't do that kind of math since I'm only 14. .:lol::lol::lol:

man, that area used to be a treasure trove of trikes. the whole area N, NW, NE of austin had alot of nice/inexpensive bikes to offer. i'll keep my eye out. i guess youre not bringin your own trikes, thats why you need to buy one.....

Yea we are driving a car so I can't load up the trikes! I'd like to have one or two to leave there anyway, I'll have a truck once I am there that I can go pick up a trike/quad with.

I just picked up a nice 200x today for $550, every bit as nice as the ones people around here want a grand for. Maybe things aren't as dry as I thought...

its depressing. this $ is burning a hole in my pocket. let me know if you need help with that.

Been lucky here in oregon since the weather has yet to break for summer.

2 85's one br and one sx $250 each and needed less than a couple hrs each cleaning carbs and normal stuff.

But 'em in the winter?

My killer sx looked like a pos sitting in a garage with a new fish boat, new quad and all other new stuff so it was uglying up the place.

I got a few lately from a local metal scrapper.

He keeps dumping them off at my house when he finds them in his clean up rounds.

people buy or sell houses and farms and throw stuff out.

Nice that some really good dependable trikes look like crap after sitting outside for a while.

..so I;ve been getting trikes for about $140/ton
