    eBay trike - is it worth it?

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1987-...item2306fbd2a7


    What do you guys think? I am pretty sure it would be better to take a look at this in person because obviously the seller does not know anything about it. My initial thoughts are that it may be worth $499. Although the seat is from a quad and who knows what year model it is. Let me know your thoughts.

    I can tell you it isn't an 87. I can also tell you that I seriously doubt it will go for $499. But yeah, if I could buy that for $499, I would. In a heartbeat. Oh yeah, if it pertains to Ebay or Craigslist, and isn't your ad on craigslist or Ebay. It goes in the Ebay/Craigslist section of the forum.

    Looks to be an 85. It's missing quite a few parts!

    is it just me or is the engine the wrong color, I messaged them and asked for a motor serial number and vin number to confirm if it is in fact an 87

    Looks like a roller, that happens to have a motor bolted into it...
    No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

    The read carrier looks like an 86, but I always get them confused.
    That thing looks like a total bomb, probably the motor is trash.

    Good eye, looks like somebody put an 86 rear end on it. I still think it's mostly an 85. It has polished top triples and a black engine.

    Yeah, bike chop shop. Even more reason not to trust him. The engine probably doesn't have any internals either.
