Hey, just picked up my first trike I was told its a 1983 ATC 125. I have a few questions. (Not the best pictures)

Is it a 1983 ATC 125?

Where to buy a carb for it? (missing throttle slide needle)

And also missing pullstart what all would i need to get a pull start on? All I see is the flywheel?

Looks to me like it's either a 200 or 185s with aftermarket fuel tank.

I think Big G's right. I don't recall a 125 ever having forks. Also, and I could be wrong here, I believe that 1984 was the first year for the square headlight. If you look on the side of the engine's cylinder, it should have the displacement stamped on it. I think the 185 says 180cc and the 200 was around 196cc (could be wrong on the exact cc's too). The last clue is that the cylinder is upright. I think that all of the 125's had a horizontal cylinder. I hope you're not disappointed about having a bigger trike.

I'm glad to hear its a bigger trike, I looked on the cylinder but didn't see the stamp. Thanks for the info guys. Sticker on the frame says 1983. Now just have to figure out getting parts and get it running!

It's a 185s there was a sticker on the frame so that makes it easier to get parts. Does anyone have any input on what I need to complete the pull start? I'm going to get a new mikuni carb for it.

Wait you are just missing the needle? Why buy a new carb when you can buy a new needle?
