OK we have seen the trike, for the money we four who went say yes, bike started right up and ran VERY smooth,  cooldude quick glance inside the tank was clean, looks like the bike was originally the green silver color.  Issues are corrosion on most Kuryakyn parts past the cleanable stage and corrosion on other parts might be cleanable, it for sure spent some time outside.  Front rim appears to be chromed and looks great, the rake on the forks are correct, we did not ride it and we felt they wanted to get in the shop as it needed a going over. The heal toe shifter was very loose.   The bike was not cared for in the manner that any of us four would do and a dirty underbelly and corrosion was the evidence.  We don’t feel we were invited to ride it until they went through the bike.  The tires have plenty of life and it has the CB and radio. The rear rims were very nice Did not test any electronic stuff of that I remember.  Maybe others will have information I missed.   Overall we feel their starting price is definitely fair.   Jerry, Jack, Nick and Eddie.

Agree with all that was said, it also has some nice extras like the lower fork covers, the driving lights that attach to the lower forks and chrome front wheel.  
I feel that when it comes to a custom paint job that it can help the sale but in most cases it can serve as an deterrent if not something most people like.
I think she might be sleeping outside and in the back of the shop so I don't see them selling it anytime soon.
Maybe use this items as you negotiate the final price.

Good luck and hope this helps.

Yep, I concur with all of the above mentioned. I believe that u are in a good position to get the bike even less than the asking price, overall the bike is in good condition. It needed a short charge before it would start as someone left the key in the on position.

Once charged she fired right up without any starter noise or issues. After a quick warm up she ran real smooth with great throttle response and no popping thru the Cobra exhaust, which sounded awesome.

It has the best Trike Kit that money can by, and that Road Smith kit alone is around 10K, so I would say go for it, give it a little love and make it your own  cooldude cooldude

The racked fork was by Roadsmith too. The side covers are of different colors the left is yellow, right is black and middle I belive was green, along with the front half of the rear fender. It will need a good good clean up and if you bargained to sell it as is, you might get the price down too. It looked like the after market chrome didn't hold up as good as the stock chrome. I did not see a reverse lever but trikes roll back easy enough if you get off them and push them back. The dealership is Huge they had all kinds of 2 and 4 wheel toys along with water toys too, the people seemed friendly and talkative they even got Nick to buy riding shoes. All in all the bike was nice and the ride out there was great too. Good luck.

You would think that he would have the courtesy to thank you all for the time and effort spent on his behalf........
