Please get the details from my other thread
"1987 Honda Fourtrax 250 " up here
right now for context and details of my problem.

I really need help, I think I have been scammed
(possibly). What can I do to make the best
of this situation?

Yours truly,

Can you get a pick of the crack? I think you are over reacting a bit. It most likely can be fixed and you even said yourself in the other thread you didn't see it till it was ready to come off the truck. You also wonder how your buddy didn't see it, maybe he did or maybe he didn't only hes knows that. If he did see it and didn't say anything then he is not a friend. How long ago were the shocks replaced? The crack could have happened after the work, also it wont take long for rust to show up on bare metal. Best bet is to talk to him and see what he says, its and easy fix. Parts are cheap for it on ebay. Just keep a positive attitude.

 

All thanks for the responsiveness to this thread
and your suggestions and willingness to help.

I know have the Pics up on WebShots. Please
view slide show, the clearest pictures for viewing
the cracked frame is pics (3,4,10,12,15).
Other pics were for my purposes of demonstrating
back to the seller that it is indeed his bike (aka stickers
on fender/body).

Have you run the bike over to your local welding shop/ machine shop/ to see what they say?
