Found a lot of candidates, so thanks to all for their help in indentifying so many.

Now it's time to sort them out.  Will fill everyone in after the 1st of the year.

Mark,

Here is a link to a Valk trike in Argyle.  I like these guys they work on both my bikes.

That's a nice looking trike Mark, wish I could look at it for you, but I'm next door to you again. My son's birthday is today, wife had to be here for that, also picking up some laminate wood flooring tomorrow, then back home. Of course I'm available to ride it up North for you, if needed.

When you are back home, let me know.  I may need you to take a look at it.

Mark,

  Are you only interested in valkyrie trikes for sale in the state of Texas or would you consider trikes for sale outside the state of Texas?

In or out at this time - there don't seem to be a lot of them out there.

For the money the one in west Houston seems to me to be the best deal. The interstates bigger tank and the radio and intercom etc. is well worth the small difference in price. Keepinon has a trike and his milage is some what less than the stock bike so a bigger tank is a plus. If I could swing it I'ld be all over this one.

Just my experiences...  I believe the one in Houston to be the better deal. I have the MotorTrike conversion which is the shortest of all. The CSC/Interstate, a few inches longer,  should make for a nicer ride. And believe me, ya want the extra fuel.

If you need anything, let me know. I'll be available the rest of the week.

Well, since he won't respond to emails, I can't do much to prove or disprove what you are saying, but I appreciate your information.

Anybody out in Odessa that can check this one out?

http://odessa.craigslist.org/mcd/4090297017.html

Not sure what the cosmetic issues are, but if not too bad, this looks like a deal.

PM me if you can help and I'll get seller details.

 This search is killer,,, n' you can look anywhere in the country.

 You'll need to set it up for your zip code.

I agree with both of Keepinon's comments about brand of trike and I/S over standard/tourer.  If you're patient, I believe you can find better pricing than what is there on the two Texas ones listed. I've seen considerably better pricing in the past as I was browsing trikes and sidecars. I think pricing on large trikes without reverse is also more flexible as there is a smaller market for them, so, at the risk of telling you how to do your hog killin', I'll just say that my offers would be low unless I had an urgent need.

I agree and if you are at the meeting Thursday, can talk to you about it more, anticipating my being allowed to drive after Wednesday.

If 1) the one in Phoenix needs local eyes and ears, and 2) you haven't already arranged for such, I'll bet we can get it done pretty easily.

   I know Gary (Sidecar) has years of experience with his "3 wheeler" and has gotten use to anticipating parking situations but, personally, I would want a reverse available.  Roll Eyes

  THAT would probably lead to a Wing trike.  A lot more versatile and, I'm sure, a lot more  Undecided

  Good luck on your quest.  I'm sure you'll find what you want in time!  cooldude
