Im new to the site but not to the forums. Really happy I stumbled upon this site!:TrikesOwn

Anyway, I just rescued two Honda trikes from my grandfathers shed. 84 Honda 200s, 86 Big Red 250es.
Both of these bikes have been sitting in this run down shed for almost 5 years and need some much needed TLC.

84 200s- I already went through this one: hand sanded the frame, forks, tank, rearend and painted with shaky can. Racks powdercoated, etc.. Still waiting on an airfilter and need the cobwebs ran though it but its looking much better... I will be giving this trike back to my grandfather soon.

Big Red-I grew up riding the Big Red and it has alot of sentimental value. I will be rebuilding and keeping this one. I have just began the dissasembly process and have many questions.. (probably seem silly to yall)

-Are there any performance, suspension, options out there? Will a bigger motor drop in? :twisted:

Thanks for any help.. Please dont be too hard on this newbie:D
