    very nice bikes to all that shared pics.
    Big Reds kick ass thats all i rode for a long time after i graduated from my 125m
    my bro and i flipped it smashed it into tons of stuff and hardly ever maintenanced it (i know hetter now) and it was always reliable, same with the 125m and same with every honda. thats why i love the red trikes! my dad should have never sold the big red especially for SO cheap. 400$ 5 years ago and he regrets it every day.

    The foot pegs on the forks are for riding through deep water for long periods of time. It keeps you from getting sore from holding your feet up for so long. It does , however, make it a little harder to steer.Very nice Reds'!

    I bought an 87 BIG RED from a friend last APRIL for $600 and kept it for 2 months and when I bought my 250sx I sold the BIG RED to my cousin for $600 cause all he had was an 81 110 that would only go 15 MPH no kidding. Well he had it for about 4 months and totaled it litteraly he had the thing pegged out going down a road we were driving on and did'nt stop at a stop sign at an intersection he had to go through and he side swipped a car that was going 55 MPH. When he hit the car he flew over the top of the car and landed in the oncoming lane of traffic.He did'nt get a bruise or a scratch lucky *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**E dited*. He jumped up off the ground and ran to the BIG RED and crunk it up and was going to try to ran until he realized that the whole front end was turned to the right! He didn't get a ticket but he had to pay $1800.00 to fix the damages on the car. I still kick my azz everytime I see pictures of how it looked before and after the wreck. Nice BIG RED's Guy's.

    Sweet! I know exactly what the foot pegs mounted on the front rack are for!!

    Going thru water/mud....throw your feet up there (instead on on the rack...like I've done) to keep your footsies dry! Clever idea.

    Nothing like having a super nice 87 big red. I have a couple big reds and I do like the foot pegs up high like that. It makes water crossings easier.

    Here is mine, with basket, brush guard and speedo.
