So I've owned a 1984 Big Red for a few years and anytime I've had a question I've searched google and the best answers always came from this forum, which means its time to join.
Earlier this week I was looking at a few websites of dealers around me looking for a 4 wheeler and plow when I decided to look around Craigslist. One of the first posts was for a 1985 250SX that ran and drove, for $100.00. I didn't believe it but sent the guy an email and he called back about a half hour later. Told me it needed a new front tire but I could drive it in the back of my truck. The next day I showed up with 5 twenty dollar bills and this what I got.
I couldn't believe what I was getting. The guy was in his 50's and just didn't want it anymore. I told him it was too good to be true but he had no problem selling it for that price.
The trike has a few problems, electric start doesn't work, needs a front tire and brakes all around. But other than that the plastics are in above average shape and everything is complete. I've been zipping around the yard and it has a lot more get up and go compared to the big red.
So for my first post I wanted to share my great find. Thanks for all the great information and trike on!
