three wheeler owner again!!!

Well the last trike went away in november. Of course I got the bug to get another. Last one was a 250R now this one is a 76 ATC 90. Guy advertised it for the last 3 or 4 months on and off online for 300 bucks. its not running needs 2 tires, but complete. I guess he came to his senses, and dropped the price to 100 bucks. I figured why not. I got it home, cleaned the recoil,installed new filters, poured a little gas in it and it fired right up. unfortunatley the carb is overfilling, so im going to take it apart and clean it. Im going to order 3 tires a new throttle cable, maybe a seat cover and hopefully be done with it. And maybe I'll just keep this one for more than a month. Jim

well cleaned the carb, sprayed some carb cleaner in it and it fires right up. tank is rusty looking inside. So I imagine the filter is getting clogged. Im going to order 3 tires from rocky mountain atv and see if I can ride it. Jim

Cool,cant beat a $100.00's for a running trike!!

Found tires local for 31 bucks each I bought 3, put two on tonight. I found one of the needles that drains the bowl is missing. installed a holley needle and sealed it. I think a new plug is in order, It fires right up with spray. and after it warms up it seems to run great. only other issue I see right away is the throttle cable is sticky. Going to order a new one. and see how it runs. JIm

only shot of the 90, my neighbor started laughing when he saw the new tires on it. His comment was I have more into the tires than what I have into the trike. I paid 101 for the tires and 100 for the trike. But like I told him, its kind of hard to ride without tires. and if your going through the hassle of changing them yourself, you might as well get new ones. Jim
