I haven't even read the rest of this thread, but I can tell you what is mentioned below is about the WORST possible thing you could do.
They are much more likely to look at multiple regular smaller transactions as far as money laundering. If it was a loan and they did an agreement, there should be no problem.
I have had various $100K plus transactions using an attorney's IOLTA account as a middle man and never once been questioned on any of them. The most recent of these being within the last year.

If your friend will accept payment in installments - but within a short span of time - give him money orders or cashiers checks for roughly $8G or $9Gs every few days. You could make them payable to "Cash". For this you have to judge how honest your friend is, because you won't have regular receipts unless you insist. I suggest against round numbers -- looks too much like a drug deal -- every such check for a slightly different amount.
