Hello,
I've been on here for several months but just became active several weeks ago when my 110 finally ran and drove. So, here is what will be the
build of my 83 Honda ATC110. When I started with this, it was actually an 81 110. My dad did enough to it for it to run for a few months. However,
the motor lost compression and needed to be swapped. When I did that, I used the wiring harness from the 83 parts frame in it, since the original
consisted of wire tape and random wires. After studying the other frame, I determined that the 83 had been parted to build the 81 (why would you
do that?). So, I will be re-building the 83 to what it should be. Here is what is in store: A top end rebuild (smoking issues), correct fender w/110
mudflaps, frame rust removal and coating, wheel respray, handlebar polish, front fork respray, and what ever else I find wrong. Basically, I want a new 83 110, and since I can't buy it, I'll be building it. Anyway, here it is as of yesterday when my mower battery died :
Some other photos
This is before my dad had done anything to it. This was taken in 2006 (No aging was done, though it does look cool)
Him on it when completed
That is the only photo of it completed after he built it. After that, there are these, which are progress photos I took when I started working on it.
Where it sat on the side of our barn when we got tired of looking at it in the barn, and needed the space for our 50" cut Dixie Chopper
At some point, something cracked the fender again, which doesn't really matter since this won't be used anyway. With the plastic off :
Expect some progress tomorrow. I am planning on coating the 83 frame, grinding rust out of 83 front fork, and re-spraying wheels.
Hope you enjoy it!
