Hey there everyone.. Just jumping in here since I picked up 2 ATC's a couple of weeks ago. They have been owned by one of my good friends for a couple of years and he just got tired of them and let me have them for $230.. One is a Honda 200s and the other is a kawasaki klt250. He got the Honda first, I was with him when he got it and the guy we got it from said it had been sitting for 10 years and it showed. Oil change and some gas and a plug and it fired right up. We both looked at each other in disbelief when it started,lol. The Kawi has been through at least 4 peoples hands in the last 10 years that I know of and by far is my favorite. The Honda is,well a Honda and reliable as a sewing machine lol. The Kawi though is just a can of worms. I finally figured out the wiring issue yesterday and took it out for a scream and when I got back and tried to restart it the starter just took a dump on me. They are both very far from pretty but they are soooooo damn fun. I get some pics up later of them but here is a teaser of the day I went to pick them up,lol.

Well here is a shot of both bikes after some cleaning,lol. Me and my friend made the diamond plate fenders for the 200s. They are pretty sturdy considering it's been rolled a couple of times since. The front fender is a street sighn that was hanging on the garage wall. The klt hasn't had the rear rack or flares since I've seen it. Tried to power wash the crappy green spray paint off but didn't work as good as I'd hoped.

I really like the look of that Kawasaki. You don't see those very often.
A+ for ingenuity on getting them both into the back of the s10

It was the only truck I could get and my friend I bought them from was out using his trailer to haul his new grizzly 4x4.
