Hey guys, I always look around to see if there is any good trikes out there for sale, not that I can afford any new toys right now, but do want one some day since that is what I started on. And about everyone I see is junk, with the exception of one or two. Do you think they are getting harder and harder to find descent trikes, getting to the point where there is only a few?

Everytime I go to pismo there seems to be quite a few very nice ones around. mostly 250R hondas. Other than that I hardly ever see them anymore.

Well if your willing to pay for a good one Ebay usually has really nice ones on there that people keep in their sheds and pull them out after 10 years of storage then sell them on ebay. Just be carefull to pick the right one I bought one and got the shaft. But i did get some of my money back and now I turned it into a really nice one. Other then that you just have to keep your eyes open.

Good luck

I know of some nice ones, but they're not for sale like they used to be. It seems like just 5 years ago when I was seriously looking for a 250r, 200x, or 350x, it was much easier to find them. Now I just glance for future referance, and they all seem to be a little beat up.


I do know a few hundred descent ones show up for Trike Fest at Haspin Acre's, Indiana, does anyone here go to that?

Where are you coming from? I believe it is in June or July every year, it seems to be growing every year. I didn't realize how many trikes there are around here.

Oh really, I might be right next to ya. I live in Waynesville, about right in between Dayton and Cincinnati. If you don't want to say I understand, but what city are you in? It takes me about an hour and 15-30 minutes to get there depending on which way I go.

I have an all original 350x in next to mint condition [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. I don't think I would ever be willing to part with it, however.

I DON'T BLAME YOU! They are sweet I like the 86's better cause i think the white fenders look good other then that i dont know the difference between them or if there is any. Because there is a BIG! difference between the 83-85 and 86-87 200X's.

Oh and by the way you need to take all them pics of that warrior off and put some of that sweet 350X LOL!

Oh and motox26 I like in Hamilton between dayton and cinci so yea you are right next to me.
