    -good project or parts bike
    -air cooled
    -motor is in pieces
    -frame in good shape
    -only thing missing is a stator
    -i was rebuilding it but got bored of it
    Replyed with this:
    $50, if not now than in a couple of weeks if you can't sell it? i plan on fixing it up to use it to learn on. do you have a ownership for it or not?
    got this Reply:
    i would rather sell it to the scrap yard then to sell it for 50 bucks
    Replyed back with this:
    Well what is the Lowest you would Accept than And Did you already get a Quote to see what Scrapyards would give for it because Scrappers may not give $50 for a old dirt bike that the engine is in pieces?
    Thoughts?

    Sounds to me like you low balled the guy so bad you hurt his feelings and you now have a snowballs chance in hell of buying it... there's a difference between getting a good deal and putting it to someone, especially when you do it via email without even seeing it first.... just my honest opinion... FYI that's not an 84 looks a lot more like an 81...

    Yeah looks like an 81 to me, I thought the 84's had disk brakes?

    Got a reply back:
    i wont go any lower then 200 i have seen ones in worst shape sell for more
    Engine needs to be assembled plus it needs a stator. what would it cost for a stator and how long would it take to assemble the engine? i would guess $50-100 for the Stator i guess and a couple hours of my time or $100-200+ to get someone to assemble it correctly and install the engine so i'm not sure what one with no ownership and may need more than a Stator is worth so with the time and possibility of some funds i don't have right away i figured $50 would be a fair price, maybe $75 Max.

    Good luck, but the post vintage MX boys will eventually snag it for close to his asking price

    Yeah man, I agree with Huffie, that offer would have offended me for sure.


    I can spot atleast his price by eye, fifty bucks is just a stupid offer, but what can you expect the result to be?
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.
