Freebird Posted November 7, 2007 #1 Posted November 7, 2007 Folks...I REALLY like this trike. I think it is overpriced by about $25,000.00 or so but that's beside the point. I just love the old school look and it looks like it would be a blast to drive. Very clean lines. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2006-EXILE-CYCLES-TRIKE_W0QQitemZ200170040593QQihZ010QQcategoryZ6719QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
mini-muffin Posted November 7, 2007 #2 Posted November 7, 2007 Is it me or does it kinda remind ya of a tricycle. Margaret
juggler Posted November 7, 2007 #3 Posted November 7, 2007 I've seen pics of those before. Those type of trikes look like they would flip over backwards real fast.
Freebird Posted November 7, 2007 Author #4 Posted November 7, 2007 Yea...it does kinda remind me of a tricycle...a really COOL tricycle. I'll bet you could flip it over if you got crazy....a wheelie bar might be fun on it.
E-Fishin-C Posted November 7, 2007 #5 Posted November 7, 2007 Maybe they its a typo.... Its should read $3750:rotfl:
Freebird Posted November 7, 2007 Author #6 Posted November 7, 2007 I WISH....I would be on my way to Texas to pick it up. By the way, I wonder what kind of rear end they used in that thing. Looks like some kind of custom job.
fixit3546 Posted November 7, 2007 #7 Posted November 7, 2007 I don't quite see $37500.00 there. I'm with BlackOwl on this one. The rear looks like some variation of a Servicar rear-end.
Redneck Posted November 7, 2007 #8 Posted November 7, 2007 I like it very clean very simple it looks well engineered. I would like to take it for a spin. Why don't you go ahead and buy it I will pick it up and ride it for you till it thaws out up there.
HeathersWheels Posted November 7, 2007 #9 Posted November 7, 2007 I do like it. Clean and simple look to it. Man we are in the wrong business...if that bike sells for that much.
SilvrT Posted November 7, 2007 #10 Posted November 7, 2007 THAT .... is a highly cusomized machine IMHO. That engine alone has got to be worth a lotta bucks.
Freebird Posted November 8, 2007 Author #11 Posted November 8, 2007 I like it very clean very simple it looks well engineered. I would like to take it for a spin. Why don't you go ahead and buy it I will pick it up and ride it for you till it thaws out up there. I knew I could count on you to lend a hand. Let me look in my wallet here and see how much........let's see.....one.....hmmmmm..... I appear to be a bit short on the needed funds.
eagleeye Posted November 8, 2007 #12 Posted November 8, 2007 Old School? For sure____Good Looking? ------------Absolutely! How do you put a price on a work of art? That thing belongs in my driveway---------------------- Steve
rod Posted November 8, 2007 #13 Posted November 8, 2007 That looks like a trike that Exile built for the TV show biker build off. The rear was a custom machined part. It does look cool and I like the minamalist look but not street legal here in Ca with no fenders. Rod
Bvinson Posted November 8, 2007 #14 Posted November 8, 2007 It's only about a 1/4 mile from my office. Go ahead and do the Buy it Now and I will ride it to my house fo safe keeping until you get here...
BOO Posted November 8, 2007 #15 Posted November 8, 2007 I WISH....I would be on my way to Texas to pick it up. By the way, I wonder what kind of rear end they used in that thing. Looks like some kind of custom job. Sure is a strange rear end. Chain drive also. Did you notice the oil filter? No worries about shock leaks. I'm thinking it is way over priced but he got a bid just the same. Jerry
Bummer Posted November 8, 2007 #16 Posted November 8, 2007 So am I the only one who immediately thought Big Wheel?
Carbon_One Posted November 8, 2007 #17 Posted November 8, 2007 Not bad for a bare bones bobber trike. Got a couple buddies who would love that too but no way will they be bidding on it. Let's just say it's a out of our price range there. Would love to take it for a spin like everyone else here but don't think I'd ever want one like it. Just not enough suspension there for these old bones. It's perfect for show and tell or bar hopping but that's all IMO. I do appreciate the work, engineering and detailing of it thou. Larry
Tigeress Posted November 8, 2007 #18 Posted November 8, 2007 It looks like the little brother of the REAL "Biker Build Off" Exile trike. http://www.exilecycles.com/index.php?section=25
86er Posted November 8, 2007 #19 Posted November 8, 2007 Is it me or does it kinda remind ya of a tricycle. Margaret Wonder why they call it a......TRIKE?! :rotf: OK, Ya know I love ya, Margret!
mini-muffin Posted November 8, 2007 #20 Posted November 8, 2007 Wonder why they call it a......TRIKE?! :rotf: OK, Ya know I love ya, Margret! You just remember to be nice to me Todd. I may be little but I can hurt your ankles. :rotf::rotf: :rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf: Oh and it just looks like a really big tricycle that a little kid would ride. I'm not sure why you guys even like it. Margaret
