Hey there fellow wheelers, I am new to this site, but not new to owning a trike. I used to have an 85 atc110, sadly enough it was stolen by some local hoopeejoobs, never to be seen again. Now 10 years later I have acquired an atc200s and buckets of parts. Im not really sure what year it is or how to find out though. In all reality Im going to need all the help I can get here with this thing. Im not a bike mechanic, im a hotrod/truck mechanic, and fabricator /welder. The mowwwwrons who had this bike first decided to cut the rear fenders to about the third of the width they were, ripped off the tool box lid, duct tape and spraypaint the tank, rip off the light, and put bicycle handlebars on it, sooo sad. For this trike it must be like saving it from trike auschwitz. I have spent the past month going through buckets of parts I have gotten from various donors and people on craigslist, and have managed to find a good light and bracket, The right handlebars throttle unit and brake levers and dash cover., luckily enough all the brake components do work. All I had to do was replace the levers on the drums themselves. I have stripped and cleaned the tank, got a new carb, fuel hose, I pulled the pre filter out of the tank and added an inline filter.

What I need help with is the motor, I do not know jack about these cycle motors, I understand the concept between 2 cycle and 4 but I have honestly never taken one apart,, and where the heck would I go about finding out what year this thing is? HEEEEEEEEEELP

Hey now, Scott here. First time poster, long time lurker. I'm a atc 70 weirdo. First one was purchased new in 74', long gone(sigh). Had lots of different wheelers over the years. Currently have 83' blue christmas special, 73', 83', 84', 85'X2 atc 70's. Love riding and working on them! Great site. Surprised I haven't seen this site before now?
Found this site due to a brother forwarding the coeshow post. Enjoyed the heck out of reading the entire thread.
Peace out.

Hey Guys,

Just signed up tonight. Figured since I'll be picking up a 225DR tomorrow or a Tecate later this week I better get logged instead
of just lurking.

Hey, just signed up to the site. Was hoping someone could help me out. I just got what I believe is a Kawasaki KLT 250. I've noticed on the 82'-83' they have front shocks but mine do not have front shocks but the trim is the same. I'm thinking my 3 wheeler is even older then a 1982. Anybody have any thoughts? Thanks!

[NVTrimoto]

New to this forum and have several trikes. 2 84 Tri moto 175's, a 83 Big Red 200 and 84 YTM 200. Looking to fix them up as they are running, but not really well. Anyone know how to change the throttle to a twist style for the 175's, please let me know. Would sure appreciate it. Any other tid bits, would be great.

Just traded for a 1985 Honda ATC250ES. First trike I have owned. Looks a little a rough, run good. Looking for service/parts manual.
I think I posted a picture of trike. Any help would be great,
Thanks

Hello to all, especially the guys who were there and done that back in the 80's on the tracks!! I was fortunate to raced back then and even still own several ATC Honda's, and in stock and modified form. I was lucky to have raced up and down the eastcoast.

Back then, I met Marty Hart, Steve Wright, Jimmy White, pitted with Rodney Gentry as a privateer, and even had my picture taken with my favorite Honda rider and wiseguy, Curtis Sparks. I still own two ATC 70s and even my old race bike, a 1984 Honda CR60 which my dad and I converted into three wheeler for the modified 60cc class (Damn thing was faster than my Dad's 86 200X, no kidding)

Great site, and I enjoy reading the post from the racers such as Mike Coe, and others who raced back in the day. THAT was an awesome time to be a young kid!!
