Buying used bents

Hey there. Tomorrow morning I am going to check out a couple different used bikes. One is a Rans Stratus (LWB) and the other is a Burley Limbo (SWB/CLWB)
I know they are a bit different, and I have been reading about both, but can some of you offer advise on what to look for as a tell-tale sign to stay away? Both are fairly inexpensive, and both are about 100 miles away. I am a good wrench, but I just don't know anything about these. I just recently bought and rebuilt a delta trike (Haluzak Triumf), but I want to be able to go faster/further than what that is capable of..
I'm doing this as I'd like to give my enlarged prostate a break from the saddle, per se.

Thanks
Andy
