Hi guys and gals
I am new to this forum. I have a ATC200ES which requires substantial frame repairs to the lower frame behind the engine.
The damage is caused by rust as this trike has I believe spent sometime on a salt water beach.
Based on your knowledge;
1) should I repair by welding in new lengths bent to shape or find a second hand frame with less damage.
2) what is the correct welding technique I should use and what sort of frame material is available.
3) Any other advice I need to get.......
Still stripping the trike, so photos by the weekend.
