i rencently had both of these given to me by a friend i want to get one up and running but i honestly have no idea where to start both motors seem to be free and not locked up but theyve been sitting for years. any help or advise would be appreciated

get a service manual for the trikes and start reading
get one started and begin putting the pieces together like a puzzle
good luck and you are in the right place for help just ask more specific questions.

welcome biggwill,
Firdt off change spark plug on the mostly complete motor , oil, and clean the carb. Then you will want to clean the fuel tanks out and pick the best of them all. Next check for spark, if no spark then we can make you a list of solutions if there is then put the plug back in and see if it starts. Here is a link for a downloadable manual http://www.oscarmayer.net/atc/manuals/
I recommend fixing one up and parting the other one out, but it's your choice on how much you want to spend for parts. I don't believe a complete rear end will be very cheap.

disconnect it, i heard thats all you would have to do. not totally sure though

[muthey]

if you want a new key made for it take the key switch down to a honda dealer and they should be able to make one for you, otherwise just disconnect it .

ok guys i used a screwdriver to turn the ignition on and i bought a new plug today im not getting any spark from the plug any ideas on what could be the problem from there?

what do you mean exactly "you turned it with a screwdriver"? those should be keyed ignitions, hopefully it's not broke on the inside. unplug it from the backside of the ignition and see if you get spark then.

ok today i disconnected the ignition cleaned the carb and cleaned up all the connectors but im still not getting any spark at all im stumped on what to do next
