    70mph 225dx LOL!

    This kid is an idiot a while ago I went to look at a 125 honda he had for $150 he told me the only things wrong with it were the seat needed a cover and it had a small crack in the fender. So I get there and he tells me it is missing a tooth on the front sproket and when he started it up it sounded like the valves were f**** up. He also told me he got it non running and that it had a really nice gas tank but it was a 200s tank and then he told me he got it from a guy with a bunch of trikes in his barn so I'm guessing he payed nothing for it. Get this he tried giving me some b.s story he was a certified mechanic that would fine but he was only 14 just some stupid cocky kid. Now hes got some more on CL like this Yamaha. In another add he said this 225 would smoke a 200x and keep up with a 250r. What an idiot.

    Hmm, third picture doesn't even have a 225 in it.......

    And I might be wrong, but isn't the first pic a 200e instead of a 225? The pipe looks 200e. IIRC the 225 had a Y frame there that split out, and the E had a wrap around pipe.
    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.

    Get ready for his next big sell, the Tri-moto in the background is going to become a Tri-z and run 120mph. He once drag raced a top fuel dragster with it and bet it by 3 trike links and he still had 3/4 throttle left. And It looks like he swapped the forks over too, good news for the Tri-moto bad news for who ever gets the racing 225. 70+mph with no suspension is kind of scary.

    Irony is using the phrase "no low ballers"

    I also saw the same ads for the 125M and "225" and thought twice. It comes withe a tank of premium gas though!
