    What should I pay?

    A guy I know has 2 200 Big Red trikes for sale. One is in good shape, starts and runs great (from what he says) and the other starts and runs great also, but needs a throttle cable and a set of front forks (they are bent). He is asking 1k for both, but siad he is very flexable. I don't want to try and make an offer the will insult him, but don't want to pay 1k either, what should I offer? They both have all the plastics, no tears in the seats, and seem to be in good shape. I will link a pic, but not sure if it will work.

    $1000 is probably a steal, maybe try 900 or 950

    Yeah, I agree that 1k is a good deal. Gather up what you can without 'breaking the bank'(ask me later about that )and let him know what you got. If anything, walk up to him with tattered clothes and puppy dog eyes and lay a huge sob story on him.

    Judging by the first pic, the farther one in the pic, looks to have been in a front end collision. The rack and fender and forks look farked.
