I called on 3 Honda trikes in the local paper last night and went out and looked at them before I went to work. He told me over the phone that one was a 200x with really good plastic, but the motor was removed and apart. (Which was the honest truth) The next one he said was a 250R but the motor was seized, really tough shape but complete. (Moron didn't know 250R's a 2 strokes and that the sticker on the side said 250SX) Now for the last one he said it was a 4 stroke 250, but didn't know what it really was. ( When I got there I saw it was a 83? air cooled R!!!) The plastic was in tough shape but the original headlight was still on it and it was complete and rolls over! Needs rings and a rebuild in a bad way though. Now like I said he told me they were ALL 4 strokes and kept calling the SX a R, not to mention a line of BS about a 900 Kawi bike he built that would do 239 in the 1/4 mile! So my question is what do think these would be worth if I bought them? Any insight would be nice!
Quick rundown of what they were so its not so confusing,
1. 86? 200X good shape, clean and complete, but motor is removed and tore down.
2. 86? 250SX complete destored plastic and seized motor.
3. 82-83? Air cooled 250R, Complete, rough plastic, motor turns no compression, but has factory head light.
4 All have almost new rear tires and fronts looked good as well. Need to know ASAP, he is holding them until this weekend!
Thanks in advance,
