Hello all. Well after a 23 year absence I am back in the 3 wheeler world. At 43 I find myself searching for things that remind me of my childhood. I suppose we all go through this stage at some point. I also get great satisfaction from bringing an old item back to usable condition. We camp in a 69 Airstream, use old pump up Coleman lanterns and stoves, and love every minute of it. One thing missing was riding on an old ATC .
I was hoping to find my original 200m, but have not had any luck. If I can't locate my old bike, I plan to find a couple of Big Reds. In the meantime, I came across a 1981 185s that will have to feed my desire for the moment. Currently working on carburetor and fuel tank. Tank has some pinhole rust spots, and carburetor was very dirty. Rear fenders are cracked, and seat cushion is in terrible shape. I'm going to start a rebuild thread with pics soon. I do want to say how thrilled I was to find this forum. Wealth of knowledge and great people.
