Hey All,
Just thought I'd say hello. Great site, and happy to be a part of the fun and glory. Been a long-time dirt bike guy (love my Honda CR500), and now venturing into the three-wheeled world. Looking forward to learning from you guys - found tons of info already on this site.
Just picked up an original 1974 ATC 90 - Daytona Orange. Still has the original OHTSU Balloon Tires and all. Tank is beautiful, no dings, no scratches. Put her up on some blocks for a thorough cleaning, and then can't wait to get her out to ride. I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions, and now I know where to go.
First question - do I keep the balloons on, or do I update to the newer knobby tires (22x11x8 CST brand?) and keep the balloons nice and clean up on the shelf in a safe place?
Any other tips?
Thanks guys,
Dave
