hello all

well here she is its a manco three wheeler, i dont know that much about it but it shouldnt take me that long to find out about it.

lucky the lady wants to ride also or it wouldnt be in the garage,it uns great starts right up the carb needs to be cleaned. it hesitates on take off and back fires when you let off the throttle,it has a couple cracks in the fenders but i will leave them for now.

hell i got on this thing thinking it was gonna be a bone with 8hp but it didnt take me long to change my mind, this thing goes like a bat out of hell.

if any one has info on this bikes wiring please share some info.it has a brake light and head light but both of them dont work. there is no on/off switch for the lights and there is way for the brake light to work,shouldnt there be some sort of trigger device to make the brake light come on and off? theres nothing.

Theres not that many of those around. Not many members have them, so its hard to comment, or give advice on them.


I think you need to just get a mulitmeter, and go to town on your wiring.

Good luck! Looks like a fun bike.

Well most guys like myself don't know anything about that model trike. Are you sure it is a BRAKE light or just a TAIL light? Get a VOM meter and start troubleshooting the electrical system. Check for fuses also. Good luck.

Also, do a search here and see if you come up with any info on that trike.

hello
thanks for info guys,ive looked all over even in go cart forums for the manco line but go cart guys laughed it off and called them dangerous .so no help from them.

i think your right its just a tail light. this bike runs and drives great i still have to clean out the carb but over all a good trike. it has a 8 hp briggs on it, its enough to pull the front wheel up for wheelies just to scared to do them.

keep a eye out for info on this trike if you would guys. thanks
