Hey guys just picked up my first trike a few days ago but I've been riding motocross for a while. Its a 1985 ATC250R. It's bored to a 310 and runs great. As far as I know the only mods are that its bored and it has a "Mariner" exhaust? What are some common mods that you guys would recommend on this thing? Let me know what you guys think and maybe what I should do first to it. Thanks, Bryan

Thank you! I was under the assumption that I wasn't allowed to post in any other thread except this one because I am new.

Not sure how that works, I had a heck of a time getting on here a few years back, now they can't get me off!

Thanks guys, has anyone ever heard of the Mariner exhaust it has on it? The previous owner bought it from a guy that used to race it and had it set up for racing, so I would assume thats why it has all of the low profile parts and also the parking brake is removed. It's definitely a lot different than a bike and 4-wheeler! I'm hooked.

Nice bike and welcome to the site! You'll be limited to the "Newb" areas for a few months and then everything will open up for ya. Enjoy the R, you can't go wrong with those bikes :)
