    is this a good deal for $100 (TRI-Z frames)

    86 tri -z 250 frame with:
    gas tank
    wish bone
    swing arm
    coil

    and also $100 bux for 85 tri-z 250 frame with:
    rear break assembly
    gas tank
    tripples
    cdi box
    voltage regulater
    wish bone
    swing arm


    i can buy eather one for 100 bux... i think i am going to buy both of them and build both of them up..... i am definately going to buy the 86 frame and prolly buy the 85 frame because it has alot of parts on it..... what do you think guys am i getting ripped off or is that a good deal... also both frames are red and have no welds cracks or bends in them they are CLEAN

    lol me being only 20 ... 200 bux is more of an investment for me then for others lol being i dont have much of a job... so i was just seeing if this was a good ideal.... i found out the frame i have now is kinda of a waste of time because the left foot peg is welded on and i want a very clean frame to work with..... so i was thinking i am going to buy both the 85 and the 86...

    i am going to build the 85 into more of a drag bike with an extanded swing arm and keep the 86 more stockish but not totaly stock ill pipe it and all of that but nothing like an extended swing arm or anything....

    ill have progress pics soon for you guys..... im taking an extra swing arm i have over to friend of mine that owns a machine shop to have him extend it 6 or so inches prolly 6..... he is going to do it for nearly nuthing .
