Trike Project valuation

[MrAtkinson]

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum and new to custom builds. I am 3/4 through a build and find that I may need to sell the trike a project as potentially need the cash

As this is my first custom build im not sure how to value it and what kind of price to put for it.

The trike currently has:

Full custom steel box frame

Custom forks

Suzuki GS500E engine (starts first time)

suicide clutch/gear lever

Custom fuel tank

Twin exhaust

Led indicators and automatic led headlight

chain driven live rear axle

external fuel pump

Push button start

16*8" alloy wheels on rear (£250 alone)

Whats left to do:

Finish wiring (3/4 done)

Fabricate one engine mount

bleed front brake

small amount of metal fabrication (basically adding end caps to frame ends)

add wheel arches

mount mirrors (have them just not mounted)

check welds and paint

Have done a fair bit to it since this video but this give you an idea of the look and style of the trike



Any idea on pricing or advice would be super helpful.

Thanks

Jake

Jake ..Welcome......I'll start the bidding at one hundred bucks....Less shipping:laugh:...

Jake welcome. First when dealing with customs there is no set way of pricing ones work. Start out with what it cost for parts and go from there. The big problem is finding someone who wants what you have done. Good luck selling it will be interesting.

Welcome from North Ga. ..:wave4:

Hope all goes well.........

Don't know if this is comparable: When guys build custom cars they rarely get enough money to cover the cost of the parts they put in it.

Then to add insult to injury, a 550 cc engine is pretty small for a trike.

Good luck with selling your project, tho.
