New wheeler owner

[DDQ]

Hello, I'm a new 3 wheeler owner from NC. I'm a long time banshee guy and never really had any intention of buying a 3 wheeler even though I think they are super neat. However, yesterday I was driving down the road and an ATC caught my eye at a thrift shop. I stopped to look at it and had/still have my concerns about buying it. It's missing the rear plastic, seat, CDI, coil , headlight and kill switch box. The owner did not know much about it but I pulled the cord and the motor turned over. The oil dipstick showed oil in the bottom end, so I offered him $50 and put it in my truck. Before I left the owner gave me a CDI and a coil but thinks they came off a larger ATC. Can anyone confirm if that is true based on these pics?

Also couldn't 'reply'.

Welcome.
You're in the right place for answers.

Bump.
Can anyone help me out?

That CDI is off of a bigger atc/atv for sure. The coil is most likely from an older 110. Parts are really easy to find for these. It seems like everyone tears them down instead of trying to fix them. $50 is good price no matter what you do with it

[DDQ]

So I should not try to use the coil either?

The CDI looks like it is from a 250ES big red... You should be able to find a good used CDI on ebay and a new ignition coil on ebay.

OK, thanks!

or just a new full wire harness for 10 bucks with a cdi and coil already attached.
Keep watching ebay.
Matter of fact, I may have one or 2 laying around but will take me days to look.

Very fun machines. Simply can't go wrong at 50$

I had a few minutes this weekend so I started looking into the 110. Im going to have lots of trike questions in this thread, so please be patient with me. This is going to be a "fix up" on a budget.





I had a real tough time getting one of the forms off the front spindle, and it looks like this was the culprit. What is this part called?




And do you think I can glue this pull start handle back together?

That first part is the axle collar, been a while since I tore apart a 110 but I thought it centered the axle in the forks.

I am not aware of any glue that would with stand the abuse of pull starting. I would think any pull start handle could be made to work on a budget.

[DDQ]

can the seat be attached straight to the frame without rear fenders?

[DDQ]

Also, is there supposed to be a gasket for the pull start coil cover?

[Jwheeler]

Yes there is a gasket for the pull cover. And yes the axle collar does help to center the axle in the forks. But your collar looks to be wore out. You can find all this stuff on this site or e-bay.

I have not been able to locate any used 110 parts in the store here through multiple searches. Are members allowed to post items for sale/wanted, or if the store doesn't have it am I out of luck?

I have a new harness but I'm not sure how to detach the two wires from the pickup thing inside the top of the case on the driver side. Are the wires soldered to that? Also, that part is white and dirty. Can I clean it without damaging it?
