Well, I saved the life of a trike today!

[XDAWG]

Man that sux!!! I would be heated! I hate people like that, I probably would have knocked his *** out. Just wait for them to call you back and say it not running and tell them to bring it over and be like

"Oh S*** you really tore this thing to S*** man, Its gonna cost about $3-400 for a motor rebuild" then tell him "I will give you $25 for it as is because I think I can use a few of the parts."

By the way you describe these people they would probably sell it to you. Then after you get it running tell them you fixed it with some other parts you had.

As far as the one on ebay being the same. I dont think so the one on ebay has a pull start and the one he got running he had to push down a hill to get started. Just an observation why push it down a hill if the pull start was working on it?

plkmonster2,

Sorry, if that's not you. Isn't that strange though?

[ste-pel]

maybe the one on e-bay doesn't even run and hes useing plkmonster2's story to scam us all

[plkmonster2]

Nope, its not me. I'll take a pic of the trike tonight. It is a 185s. That story sounds odd though. Hmmm. BTW, My name on ebay is plkracer, the same as my aim.

[plkmonster2]

I couldn't take it home, because I was then only one there at my house that day, and I don't have a liscence. I just though that I'd get it going, then drive it home. Plus the place is about 3 miles away, so I didn't want to push it. It makes me sad now how they run the piss out of the poor 185, and their 225 is being babied, now that they don't have to run it.

Man i would have walked right up to that door and knocked as hard as i can.Then when they came out i would have introduced them to my freind Smith and Wesson, 500 S+W that is.Look if you don't give me my due's then i'm going to......


Please don't get me started,for i mite have to punish somebody.

Hey man I hope you know I was only kidding around with the smoking crack thing. Nice Mustang BTW....so plk, did you visit them face to face yet?

[StangLX302]

Hey man I hope you know I was only kidding around with the smoking crack thing. Nice Mustang BTW....

Oh yeah, I know you were kidding. No problem. Thanks for the comps on the car. :-D

[plkmonster2]

I've met them a few days after they robbed it from me. I've had a bad fever the last few days, (101 degrees ) so I've stayed inside. They are thinking of letting me work on the other 185's they have, and some of the trail 90's, then they'd pay me. But still, the 185's need rebuilds, the 90's trannies are toast, and they smoke to heck and back, and they don't want to pay for the parts, and they are only going to pay me for me work, lol, what losers, they want me to pay for the parts, which a bore/piston is 160+tax, and that's the max I'd get for fixing it.

[BigRedRunner]

It would be very easy to cheat them back out of it. The way that these people treat you, I would say that they would deserve it. Just dump a quart of tranny fluid in the gas tank. They'll crank that over and it'll look like mosquito fogger when it runs. They'll come running to you of course to fix it. That's where you tell them that the bore must have gotten rusty from sitting and that it will need bored out along with a new piston and rings. Better tell them the valve stems/guides are rusty too and will need replaced. It will cost alot to "fix" it and they would better off getting rid of it. Then you will need to GET THINGS IN WRITING this time. You cheat me, I'll cheat you!
