    My best friend had an ATC125, we rode that thing everywhere. I begged my parents for a 3/4 wheeler for years... never got one.
    Now I'm all grown up and have a whole garage full

    Every time I see a 125 for sale and think, should I... I think it's only a matter of time.

    @ 10 years old, rode my first trike (Honda ATC's...guessing 110-200) at some relatives' house on family vacation:
    @ 16 years old: purchased a 1976 Honda MR 175 Elsinore and 1982 XR250 (I really miss the 175, it was a great bike)
    @ 18 years old: Traded both bikes for an '84 (I think) KX420 and a few bucks. Biggest mistake EVER. Guy wrote a check for a couple hundred bucks that bounced, and I never liked the KX420. Last time I listened to my dad's advice on vehicle sales LOL. I heard later the 175 fell off the guys trailer on his way home.
    @19 years old: Sold the KX420 (happy day) and bought a '92 XR250. Loved this bike. Sold it a few years later as I needed money for college.
    @34 years old: Picked up an '84 ATC 110, '84 200s, and '83 185s for my kids (OK, maybe the 200s was really for me). None of them ran initially. I spent the last couple months getting them running.

    My first bike was a Honda CT70 which I had for a couple years until being able to purchase a new 82 atc 185s, I think I must have put a million miles on that thing. Was a lot of fun!

    First fourwheeler I drove was a yamaha?? 80 2 stroke then dad bought a 350 rancher and did some engine work for a man and got a 300 fourtrx then for my 10th? Bday I was suprised with a 125 two seater gocart didnt have breaks that he had bought from one of his friends. Few months later put my little brother in children's hospital.. About 4 years ago? Sold the 300 and every day I regretted helping him selling it because it was everything I needed for mudding and alot of my friends mudded fourwheelers... About a year ago i was 16 and I wanted something that I had paid for myself and could do what I pleased with it.. Found a clean 84 big red for $800 and went picked it up that night my dad broke his leg on it... My friend had 82 110 that he sold me for 80$ real clean bike didnt run he had ran the oil out of it so we take a look at the valves tinkered with them now all it does just smoke but it runs and does good both of the 3 wheelers are for sale now hoping to get a 350x so ill give my lil bros 420 rancher something to think about lol

    A 5 hp briggs and straton go cart with flat pieces of steel that pushed on the rear tires for brakes, then an old 2 stroke suzuki 50 dirt bike. At the time my dad rode my current 85 200x around when we would go on rides. I then got an 89 suzuki 250 quadsport and it still runs to this day. Now i currently ride and am beggining my restore on my 85 200x...which runs like a charm. She's no looker though surviving my buddies and i through high school in small town northern Ca.

    I mowed neighbor lawns and saved up $400 to buy a honda 110 in 1982 off one of my dad's friends from work who had older children then me, I was 11 at the time. Ran that sucker for a couple years then sold it to buy an 1984 200X. Used that every day after school until I sold it off to buy a fox body mustang when I was 15. Owned three different mustangs before I actually got my drivers license. Then close to a decade went by without any trikes until I bought a 350X - something I always dreamed about owning in high school.

    My screen name means I am nuts over vintage snowmobiles(60 plus currently). That 350X was the only three wheeler in my stable for years until I found a 82 fooler on craigslist then I stumbled on 3WW looking for parts to spruce that up.....I have gotten bitten by the bug since finding this website one ATC70, two 110s, two US 90s, 85 350X, 86 200X, 85 250SX, 85 Tri-Z, 84 300R, 82 250R.
