    1982 honda 185s rebuild i started a year ago , just finished it.

    Pile of atc parts i got for 125 bucks.

    Picked up the body a week after the parts, had to fit it into my dodge

    had to buy a few parts.

    compression release slide plate that cost me $30 and i didnt even use.


    and one hub


    one week after starting the rebuild. it was almost finished other then the pull start which was put on last week ,lol a year later.


    tryed to start it but no go so i cleaned the carb, here it is before the cleaning.


    needle was so clogged


    first try on starting.


    a few more days later i got hold of someone that knew about engine over and he couldnt figure it out either , right before the guy was about to give up my friend
    george decided to mess with the carb and something made a clip noise , it was a little clip that the previous owner put on wrong so it was runnin wide open.
    i was tired as hell and way too happy.


    next morning i got a day vid


    by the time it was finished it was already nov 6th 2010 and almost time for snow , seein all the vids of people plowing with there 3 wheelers it inspired me to hunt a
    plow down , i found it on craiglist for 125 lol the same price as the 3

    wheeler ,well in the end ive spent aprox 200 on the atc so far.


    and a vid of me plowin a foot n a half of snow with it lol no reverse and i thought my nieghbor was pullin in there drive so i stopped ,hard to get goin again without
    some speed, got the job done great but i had to go down the walk twice.


    someone requested measurements so i went out to the garage mid winter to get em on vid for anyone interested.


    THE FINAL PRODUCT

    let me know what you guys think.
