    craigslist false advertisement

    am i the only one thats noticing the craigslist adds that claim to have a quad or 3 wheeler thats assumed "race ready"? a month or so ago i found a add that was listed vintage race ready trike.. and all it had was 18 in rear tires.. or how quads will have nerf bars or a bumper and its automaticly race ready. or my personal favorite.. how quads, bikes or 3 wheelers have a over bore.. its bored .60 over so its a 460. some people these days smh

    what i hate is someone spray bombs the plastics, and throws new trail pros on it, and a piece of trash bag for a seat cover and they think its worth a mint and say its restored or mint

    i hate it when they onley take a pic of the good side and say it runs good and all but when you get there it wont start, when it starts it knocks, taps and other not good noises.

    Race ready, all original, or a picture of a wet bike are 3 things that make me immediately lose interest.

    Hey Jon Jon I'm back from trike hibernation lol. Anyway, I get furious at people who say that , my blaster is bored 40 over so I magically has a 240 kit? Like really? Its like, 202cc now. As mentioned before, the oh so value increasing "just painted the plastics, looks great!". It will until you ride it and it chips off
