    Would it be worth it?

    http://collegestation.craigslist.org...076608093.html
    I have a old EZ-Go golf cart, I could sell to a guy who buys them.
    Should I use that money to buy it, or wait and part out a Trx250 and buy a even nicer one? OR, just put all that money toward a truck? I'll be 16
    October 15th.
    Dang hobby,

    That trike has a lot of problems. As to what to buy, I say prioritize. If you buy a truck, you now have transportation to a job and can make money to buy a better trike. I would stick away from that trike though, you'll end up putting some money into it and it won't be cheap. Who knows what else is not mentioned that's wrong with it.

    Engine topend rebuild needed. Then the starter kicker gear set..the parts for the which are nearly impossible to find.

    You'll be in for at least another $500 just redoing the motor..then there is still the rest of the machine to go over!!

    MONEY PIT!!

    I'd walk on this one personally!!
    Current toys..
    1986 Honda 350X..trail bomb!
    1985 Honda 250SX..my main mudder
    1985 Honda 250ES..Back in Black Trike
    Current non-trike toys:
    1990 Honda TRX300FW
    1995 Seadoo GTX
    1998 Polaris Indy Lite 340(Nearly new looking)
    1998 Polaris Touring 500

    Yeah, I will, and luckly I won't need to buy a truck right away, My Dad is going to loan me his 96' Ram 2500. With over 300,000 miles on it. Not a truck to brag about. Lol. I feel my Mom would kill if I brought home another one, that would make 7 in the past 2 years.
    I value my life.
    MAN, 700! Okish in this area is bringing 1,000 to 1,300.

    We just advise you to look at another trike but if your confident and experienced enough to do it then go right ahead. But I wouldn't pay $500 for that. If you like projects it would be a great one to do over the winter coming up.

    It all comes down to what you want to do.
