    Dude... Seriously... I got wood from that... I would give up my left nut. I could get by with just one... (for that 250R)
    No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

    I wouldn't ride it, all the seals and gaskets are probably cracked and dried up, sitting trike syndrome....After your initial 10k purchase you'd have to go through and rebuild it haha

    Why would you guys even want to ride it?
    There are many mint/cherry/low hour/like new OEM 250Rs out there. You could ride or own one of those if you want to have that "new 250R" feeling.

    Once you take it out of the crate and assemble it, it's value goes way down - - right? These guys already opened the crate and presumably took off the gas cap, so did that already lower the price?

    should of left the box alone
    A Rental Car is the only true all-terrain vehicle.
    " I actually think it is good that you have clubs where people can go and enjoy riding these things together. It reminds me of how the prisoners on death row have fun waiting for their turn on the electric chair. Fair enough, the trike isn't an electric chair, but it is about as safe and comfortable as one."

    Shoot you could travel around to different mx and off road shows. Setup a little booth and charge $20 a person to come see it. I know I'd pay up.

    I'd also keep it indoors climate controlled. Something like that you have a custom built open section in your house wall to keep it. Like a statue
