    Bigred 250 for $500

    I guys got a bigred 250. It's been sitting for 3 years he's the orginal owner he wants $500 for it and won't budge. The gas tank looks a little ruff. Does anyone think it's still a good deal.

    Anyone else think it's a good deal. He hasn't tried starting it in three years.

    That is a good deal. Even if you have to put new tires, a battery, and a gas tank that is still a good deal. What year is it?

    Good deal... Snap it up... I bought my 85 BR for 400 and it was a p.o.s. but it ran like a top... Nothing a few hundred dollars will take care of... (fenders, tires, wheels, battery, seat cover, gas tank redone, new bars.... (I might have gotten hosed come to think of it...)
    No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

    I wasn't sure if it was a good deal and asked on there, then the guy sold it.
