Greetings everyone, I just got my 1983 (84 maybe) ATC 185s out from the shed where it spent the winter. There is still snow on the ground so it made for some nice brodies. The front tire did not like being flat all winter though its got a big crack in it that now leaks, I may just put a tube in it though. I also picked up what appears to be 3 125m's from Craigslist. I am now just waiting for my buddy to bring them down from Anchorage to me. They look to be in pretty rough shape, I could probably get one working one out of them. So my fleet is expanding. I am looking forward to restoring the 185s to as clean as possible and right now get at least one of the 125's running. But I am glad I found this site, has some excellent info in it.

Here is a picture of the 185. Of course as soon as I get it out we get more snow.

Nice trike for a restore, but it's not an 83 or 84...it's an 82. 83-84 had front suspension, and the tank decal was different.

Welcome on board!

welcome to the boards! throw a tube in that front tire, i dont know why but I like those big fat old tires on the 185's and 200's it just makes them look mean! and it looks like your collection is expanding nicely, im sure atleast one of the three bikes coming home for you will be worth your time or you can build one nice one from the parts of three. Good luck man, throw some shots of the three up when they arrive!
