Teaching quads a lesson
I had a few Phase Fiv parts for my 85 Tri-Z.I had bought a mint headlight assembly off ebay.I just asked the seller if he had any more parts.Turns out he did!! I got a brand new Phase Five exhaust system,A extra used Head pipe(same brand!)A Finishline extended axle.Yellow front disc cover,#plate,rear racing fenders with the decal imprint areas,He was the one who sold me the Tri-Zinger set up for the Tri-Z.To get rid of the fuel tank under the seat.I even got a possible homemade or unknown name brand airbox that attatched to the back of the carb........ I sold the extra headpipe to another member.And once I was able to buy the LRD system I have now.I sold the Phase Five.And here is were the hate is going to come into play!!! I sold it to a gentleman in the UK.So it isnt even in the good ole USA anymore.The rest of the parts were slowly sold off once I finished the rebuild on the 85 Tri-Z.Plently of members got the parts.I dont see many anymore though?
I do kick myself in the butt for parting with the exhaust.With the port work and exhasut the bike flew!!!!!!!!!
I'm the one with all the 2 stroke around here!

Welcome to the site Scott, and thanks for the info and future info you will share.
Believe it or not, there is still some heavy organized trike Racing here in Ohio.
Sometimes we get 30 trikes on 2 different gates.
I would like to see some specs and pics of a Phase 5 pipe for a Tri-Z if you have any.
I have a "unidentified" pipe on my big bore Z and would like to know if it is your pipe.
Thanks again!
Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...

I didn't know IMS made that 200x tank. I wonder if they still have a mold for it.

My Feedback 85 TECATE 500 08 Honda 450R
I'll try to answer the previous questions, first off, I can't remember pipe specs, here is a photo though! You might check with IMS on the tanks, they made them for the 200X and the 250R. Also a photo of the 85 ATC250R Engine Kit, and a test 3&4 Wheel Action did on our 85 ATC250R Racer. There are lots of these parts out there, you just have to dig them up. A lot of these bikes have been passed down to several different owners, the stickers are gone, and they don't know if it's stock or aftermarket? Run adds in your local trade papers, Wanted: mid 80's ATC200X or whatever. You'll be surprised at what you'll come up with. That's how we do it in our vintage bike business. Ebay is great if your selling, but the way to buy is from someone whose lame to this stuff. He may have a full blown factory racer, and for all he knows it's just what the dealer sold in 84, with no clues to its modifications. Try it...
I don't mind, I'll log on when I can and post pics if you guys like them? Funny, in the 80's, I was just a teen, and didn't think I was doing anything of any significance? Now that I'm older, I enjoy talking about it. I surpised so many remember?? Thanks for listening...Originally Posted by BigGreenMachine

Scott, did you ever make anything for the Honda Pilot/Odyssey?
I think I had some parts with a PF sticker.

Scott, you could post pics every five seconds til you ran out. I don't think anyone would second guess you. How old were you when you started Phase Five?

Scott, Here is a pic of one of the cal-fab swingers referenced earlier. In your opinion, does it look like a phase five/cal-fab? I only know of three out there for sure. The first is Louis's here on the boards and the second is the one currently on my wife's 200x. Thanks for you help.
We made a pipe, and a few other things, I'll pull out some more pics and post tomorrow.
Thanks!
Hahaha, I'll post some each day. I was 18. Laid off, started it with $5,000. out of my basement...

I am almost 100% the pipe on mine is PF, not sure about silencer.
That sure looks like one. I don't have any pics of the 200x arm, but it looks familiar... Nice ATC!!
