I grew up with a 1999 Yamaha warrior that was beat to death and ended up buying a couple 3 wheelers for $500 each. The 84 200es that was beat to death before I got it ended up being used more than my quad O.o. Fast forward a few years and the quad sits with carb problems, trans probs, no brakes and needs to earn a new engine, and I have a collection of 8.5 three wheelers (1/2 since one isn't complete but is rideable complete with car tires and no plastics/lights). I probably have $3800 into all of them, seems most I find are for $500 lol.

Only problem I have with so many ATCs.... I can't store them all inside :(. I have 6.5 and the parts in my shed and the other 2 outside currently. Quad is covered outside, and my 2002 Yamaha TTR 225 Dirtbike lives in my dad's polebarn going up for sale soon with 2-3 of my ATCs (70, 90, and 200es big red).

Going back to the first three wheeler I ever been on and have even seen was a $65 POS 5hp thing. It couldn't go up a 5 degree hill to save it's life. Well my dad fixed that by putting the front end of a 350 suzuki enduro bike on it. Couldn't keep the chain on, but we had fun.


Anyway, I have lurked the site for a while, and figured I would join since I have so many.

I'm from mid Michigan near Midland.

Details about the 1981 ATC 70 is on my craigslisting http://centralmich.craigslist.org/rvs/2941274855.html (sorry for the crappy photos).

Details on the 1984 200es:

Runs well, plastic in pretty good shape, one break under the seat where you don't really notice it. Lid of the rear compartment, and the seat should be changed but is useable as is. Missing the bar that covers the rear compartment. Engine needs a gasket set and the top end worked with (burns oil and leaks oil there). No battery in it (hasn't had one since I bought it).

I'll grab a few photos of my collection in a

Thanks for the welcomes.

And here are some of the photos...

The first 4 pics are of the 1984 200es Big Red. The Camera is crap and takes purple/red photos.

Next 2 are of the TTR 225 Dirt bike

Next one is one of the 250es big reds that has to sit outside

Next is the 2.5 with a roof over them, all 3 are 250es big reds, On the shelf is a bunch of parts, an extra frame, some tires, etc. The middle one is the 1/2 a three wheeler, runs and drives, but missing a lot of parts

Last one is of the 70, 250sx, and a little bit of the 90 which is burried pretty well. Not shown is a couple of extra 250es engines that no one knows anything about.

I would like to get around $600 out of the 200es big red. Also the tires on it were new about 2-3 years ago from TSC.
