    I like my Hondas, But I love green.....lol...

    My buddy broke my subframe pretty good, so I have changed to no rear fenders and a dirtbike seat for now.. The tecate seat was too wide IMO to be used without fenders.... I may eventually look into a KFX450 seat, fenders, and subframe... I will get some pics of my newest cobbled set-up this weekend

    If you can't fix it with a , its an electrical problem.

    85 ATC 200s--Ratted out and not running at the moment

    86 ATC 200x--All stock other than the handle bars

    85 ATC 250es Big Red -- Just got new rubbers and she wants to ride!!

    04 Suzuki LTZ250 quadsport - It was a decent price and I'm a raging idiot.

    In 2012 I put this engine into a 1994 KX500 chassis I assembled from 3 bikes that I bought over the summer. This year I bought a seized 1989 kx250 for the nice 46mm conventional forks and blue excel wheels. I swapped them onto the '94.

    Two weeks ago I purchased a pile of 1985 tecate parts. Some pretty nice stuff , and combined with my other leftovers I now have most needed for a conventional 1st gen build. But after looking back thru this old thread I start missing this old trike again .. I especially miss the stepped seat, tank, and incredible turning lock it allowed... Even with a +4 swinger it would damn near turn a circle in its own length... Someday maybe I'll get it goin again. I do have a 89 kx250 core that would directly bolt in.... Also have kx500 stuff... Decisions...
