    These stupid things are addictive. Why didn't I get the memo? Got a 82 Big Red

    I'm on my third week of trike ownership and I got third one today. Picked up a 82 Big Red.

    Looks ugly but runs and its a 200! No pics yet, got the thing home at night.

    Came with a set of spare tires and a spare frame, spare exhaust/carb/forks/etc.

    I can't wait to get this bad boy running as well as my other 2 trikes.

    It's funny... you don't see guys with 5 or 10 boats, or 5 or 10 bicycles... why ARE they so addicting? Someone needs to do a study

    I think because they aren't made we feel the need to grab them up, make sure they find a good home. I want to buy everyone I see. Fortunately I have kept my addiction somewhat in check and still only have two. But if I had a huge pole barn I would fill it. But I'm working on a third...a friend of a friend new I like those weird 3 wheelers, so he says so and so has one he wants to sell. Turns out to be a Tri-Z. Just working on getting that in my collection. Nice work on the Big Red...that what I should buy.

    I think you're on to something.... that's how it is for me. I see one on CL, I email about it, even though I have no spare cash and nowhere to put it I have 7 at this point... plus 2 of my brother's... and all my tools and parts... in a single car garage.
