Hi all, I'm new to the site and the three wheel scene. I recently acquired a 1983 Honda 200e Bigred from my boss who bought it new for his son. It had been sitting for A LOOOONG time but was garaged it's whole life and in great shape,Almost like new! After rebuilding the carb, cleaning, rust treating and coating the fuel tank, replacing some fuel lines and filter, flushing and changing the oil, I got it running and rode my first three wheeler!! I still need to do some fine tuning, but so far I'm impressed. Hope y'all don't mind some stupid questions along the way and thanks in advance.

Great find! Good machine. I found one that had been rolled down a WV mountain about 25 years ago. It ran great, forks, plastic and racks were rough..real rough!....lol. She's been traded long ago and now if i found that one again i might keep her! Have fun, she'll have some monstrous mudhole power!
