    I have thought about selling my 86. As I have said before, its has all NOS red plastic, NOS tires, NOS tool kit box, and lots of goodies. NOS headlight guard like Mikes 87 there. Even the dash is NOS. And I didn't have to do that, the original plastic was in good shape, the trike was not abused. I managed to find the rear fenders as a NOS piece and then decided if I could find everything else, I would make it like new again. So I hunted all the parts down and ever so carefully changed them out. Most everything on it looks new or close to new. The rear axle has a couple of surface rust areas, and theres the usual paint wear near the pull start (which I have the original paint and could fix, but I am not going to at this point). The ONLY piece of plastic not NOS is the right rear mud guard, and its not bad. I saved all the boxes from the NOS plastic purchases as well lol. I am just that weird.

    I just don't know if I am ready to part with it just yet, but I am kinda wanting to find another really nice Big Red, perhaps an 87, and I wouldn't have room for all 4.

    I damn sure am not asking 20K for mine lol. I wouldn't think too many would be worth that unless they are sitting in the crate they came in...

    I don't think it is a 20k trike either but, I think the seller is correct in thinking the 87 125 may be the lowest production number atc ever produced. I could use a better set of rear fenders for mine, are your old ones for sale OKSTATE?

    I actually just sold my rear fenders to another gentleman on this site. I still have the front fender with a NOS mud flap. The fender has a small crack on the rear part of the fender, but overall it's a nice fender. Just FYI.

    Once I saw the seller I looked no further. I had a bizarre Facebook encounter with him about some 250r low profile fenders and that was enough for me.

    I had a weird experience with him too bkm. And others have as well, I have seen other threads talk about that . The guy has some serious issues, if you want to see for yourself, just look him up on youtube. And I believe he was the guy that took a 125M and turned it into a fat cat. head scratcher.

    I have no idea how he is in person? Maybe his internet antics are just that?

    In case you needed a face for the seller, here you go:

    Front page of his calendar seems to imply she is desperately trying to get away from him! Maybe we should heed her warning.

    Seems bidding has stalled at the $2024 mark, only $17976 more to go.
