    that could have belonged to a relative that passed away thats happened when i tried getting one it was in bad shape the owner said it belonged to his cousin who died.


    This is my trike.
    There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My trike is my best friend.
    It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life.
    Without me my trike is useless.
    Without my trike, I am useless.
    I must roost faster than my enemy who is trying to beat me to the finish.
    I must beat him before he beats me.
    Before God I swear this creed.
    My trike and myself are defenders of track.
    We are the masters of keeping quads the losers.
    So be it ... until there is no quad left.

    I'm under the impression that you are still high school age, might want to have someone older check back with them. The wife might have just saw some kid with no money standing there (no offence intended< I'm not saying I think that way of you but maybe she did). There is allot of people who will dismiss someone in their teens like that and allot of people who wouldn't talk about selling anything like that to a kid for fear of being sued later. That has happened to me before. My dad and grand dad were both old time traders and that's what I grew up around. When I got something it was mine and trading was in the blood, so from 14 on I would trade on motor cycles all the time. I made the decision and paid with "my money" but I always had to have dad or pop there doing the actual talking for me. I have had people blow me off only to price something when I went back and dad asked and I've have to give back a couple bicycles and video games back when I traded with freinds from school only to have mommy show up later that night and make us untrade. Just a thought, but if it was me and I wanted it, it would take more than 1 not for sale. You said there was like 4 kids running around. If they got 4 kids you know sooner or later they going to need the money, lol.

    Would definately go back and talk to him. She was probably just busy and did not want to mess with it. Although, I would divorce my wife if I came home and she had sold any of my 350's, the ones in parts or the 2 runners.

    My wife would say "everything he's got is for sale" lol. We have an agreement , the family gets my pay check and I can do whatever I want with what I make on the side.

    That's why you should always have a high powered rifle slung over your shoulder when people come to test ride something. Seriously, how did he get to your house to take the test ride?

    I'd be careful with this. I've had some bad experiences with these types of situations even when they told me to come back later. I wouldn't be surprised if you went back the bike was moved to the back yard.
