Would you trade?

I dont know there was no picture of it on the posting,and by full gasket replacement he says in his text"believe me when I tell you,you don't want it,It needs a complete gasket set and tires soon",I dont have a lot of money but I'm sure getting the 30 dollar kit wouldnt be difficult,and doing it shouldnt be that bad,Ive had motors apart before and back together again but not a honda

I presume he meant 250 SX -- which is a sweet ride, but needing gaskets...

Offer him the TV for the SX, and the X-Box for the 200S.

he says he wouldnt take less than 500 for the 200s and wants 600 for the 250sx,and yeah thats what I meant earlier I didn't notice it until I hit enter.

Id go both bikes for tv and game

the sx is a better machine, but you'll be DEEP in your pocket to get it up to par. if its your first trike, and you're on a tight budget, i'd take a hard look at the S. if its in good shape, like, you can get on it and ride the wheels off of it through the woods, then ditch the tv and nintendo and get outside and ride!

i admit i agree with you there but i've been looking at parts for the 250 on ebay and they dont seem bad to me with the exception of plastics and other cosmetics.for now i dont need cosmetics

Well, did u check them out ?

Ya the sx doesn't sound too bad, it sounds like he is trying to keep the sx over the 200 almost

Welcome to the site Mr. canival,
I have to say I have stumbled on a deal on 2 1985 Honda 250sx's I am picking up this coming week. Now I am selling at least one of them and the condition is about a 6.5-7.0 out of a 10. Mechanically this is a good solid machine that basically needs rear tires and other silly easy things. I would not ask over $550 - $600 for it.
To me the sx seems like a no no.

"Overall its probably 6\10 for looks but runs really well shifts as it should tires hold air for a few days but do leak down some tire slime or fix a flat would stop any problems I'm sure......plastics are in best up shape front keeps dirt off engine but front section us broke off....rear is there one side broke off and sear has tear in the middle as most are.."

So if I understand his bad spelling and terrible way to explain its condition, he is saying its plastic is in best shape? but then says half are broken off on the front and rear? What the heck is he trying to say? I SAY Step away....
.
He will find out that no one will pay his $600 for a machine that needs that much work. Be patient and find the right one. Good luck

yeah i think he meant beat up shape.and what you are talking about sounds great but i have no cash,just the stuff to trade for,i thought about selling the stuff and hanging on to the money but i know me and it would slowly drain out of my pocket and then i would have nothing

[ManlyCarnival]

the other bad thing is i have no way to travel and pick anything up,im located in kirkwood illinois
