At the risk of a rebuke from Ratman I would say it's a piece of crap.

No, he didn't get $5,500 for it; pretty sure it didn't sell (some of us were actually watching ;D), so he's stuck with it for now.  maybe he'll re-list it and at that point should realize that it's not worth even close to what he was asking previously.  According to the guys on this forum, his starting bid should be more like 2 bits.

Think of the work and parts it took, all he got was $5,500.00. You are always better to be the guy that bought it from the guy that built it. ::) (If that's your thing)

The only way I could justify this is if the rear end was hit by a train and somehow magically the rest of the bike survived. Not likely.  Hopefully it gives it's life as parts to keep the rest of our machines running.

Here's a pic for those who didn't grasp the real carnage the first go-round.  Yikes!

Y'all can quit bidding now.  I just bought it for $40.00 and a pellet gun.

sure.  but what if he accepts it? ;D

he countered with 6500.... I wonder if he is aware what great strides the medical industry has gone through... Maybe it could help him.

If he accepts it I'll pay the $7.00 and deshish is the new owner of that "thing"

Yes, he can ride it up to North Bay and you could raffle it off for a door prize.  :D

HOLY RUSTY ANGLE IRON BATMAN!! Not only is it ugly you would have to get a push start to get this sucker rolling!  Did you see the size of the trike tires on that monster?

I just made an offer of $7.00

Oh well, I'm not an art critic and my origin doesn't matter...
That THING is ORRIFIC!
And the worst part of that job is that the "artist" had the macabre courage to ruin a Drifter, for ever...
I guess that no one will ever buy it, regardless it needs additional outgoings...

I love my swingin' bike!

 ::)  Well thank you for the kind comments Tfrank59 but I would never pay $8,877.00 CDN for that marvel of motorcycle machinery. As you say there is someone out there that will like it........

I'll be the nice guy here. Of course Ratman's comments were kind. I wouldn't say the guy's nuts. I don't think he did a good job but there may be somebody out there who wants that thing and will pay good money for it. Concerning trikes in general I don't want one, I'm either a 2 or 4 wheels kind of guy, but to each his own.
