What did you do with your trike(s) today?

[YTZ Money Pit]

i drove half way across CT to trade my good old sled for a basket case 350x. it needs a lot of work, but is complete and it has the side cover for the electric start, just no starter:(

[Saul]

Lost a bolt down in my clutch cable adjustment area - tranny oil started pouring out. Put another bolt in and the head broke off. So now I have a bolt in there I need to somehow get out.

Drill and use an 'ez-out' or whatever they are called. *groan*

Worst is - the bolt was too long anyways and now it's in there and I can't 'squeeze' my clutch. *double groan*

At this pace I'll never get the bike tuned for the new Bassani pipe.

[firehart]

It snowed about three inches last night so I rode the 185s around the neighborhood. While my son rode the Rancher.

[Jonpin]

Ran into the back of my friends quad with my 85 250es and bent my front rack ,and handle bars i managed to stay on the bike though ,brake lever busted me in the finger,"sux not having brakes":),my friend had just stopped right after a berm cause ppl were walking on the trail and it was dark to .im gonna try to get those brakes working again. they always work fine till i take it out and they get wet and there done its horrible, i hate drum and cable brakes.

[scooterroo]

decided to tear into the 85 t3's rear end and get it ready for the new +2 franks swinger i am gonna be putting on it. then decided to start cleaning up the swingarm and started stripping the paint off it so i can either get it ready for paint or powdercoat, maybe might even go with chroming it.

[oscarmayer]

the 200E has been ridden wuite a bit latley. i'm goign to look at trading the tires on the rear out for different ones as they have too much tractino where I wide and are wearing out too fast on the pavment. i will keep them rim mounted for times when i go into the bush or sand only. I'm going to look at getting a cheapo set of trail riders. what do you guys recommend to do as far as rear rim choices? I know i may have to change the rear (brain is fried form work) peices where the tires mount, but what shoudl i change it too? would a 200X be a better choice? if so what wheels will work with it? i need something durable and cheap!

[DeePa]

pushed them all into the ocean, free pick up, located at crescent park, riverside, ri

On it!!!!!

[81k]

It's 11 degrees and it snowed here in MO, so me and my neighbor rode to work about three miles through town in the snow. It was great. I rode my '85 200x and he rode his '05 Blaster.

that must have been the one of the greatest things ever , i wish it would snow in florida to make that possible. "Dang it i want to see snow"

[scooterroo]

come on up to ny, we are bracing for 4 to 8 inches tonight, then they are saying a foot or more come friday, and another storm moving in on sunday, you want some snow, come on up!!!! i love riding in the snow and on the frozen lakes and ponds, but i am already sick of the white stuff.

[scooterroo]

almost have the swinger ready for paint, or powder... got these babies just waiting to be slapped on it....

thanks RID3R!!!

[oldtime3wheeler]

MY son and I took a spur of the moment ride in the snow we got tonight. Me on my 350x and him on his 70. It was great.

[Jonpin]

today i moved my ucles air boat to the back yard with the bigred didnt think it would pull it to good but it did it with ease

[Gearheadtom]

I had my 200m out yesterday and took it around for a drive in the snow until I noticed oil leaking out by the pullcord. I took the pullcord off and found the oil was coming from the crankshaft seal. I took a seal from a parts engine I had and fixed the leak. After fixing that leak I noticed the valve cover leak has become worse and now is dripping onto the starter. Now I know the oil pump works.

[Saul]

Tell me how that bassani performs saul!

More bottom end then stock but mid range and top end is now insane!

It has a nice mild-ish powerband but when it comes on 'up top' hold on!!

I'm getting the tuning down close now - need a few more main jets to really dial her in. But I'm gunna wait till the 34mm Keihin shows up next week before I dig too deep in my tuning cause I know I'm gunna have to start all over once the 34mm shows up. And I also have a reed space that has to go on when I put the 34mm on. LOL

[Yamatrike400]

Sweet, i'm excited to get mine going. Also, reed spacers actually mild out the powerband, not sure if that's what you want, i prefer a hard hit.

[neo19672000]

My 86 200X has new eyes thanks to Aussiedunner.

[Saul]

Sweet, i'm excited to get mine going. Also, reed spacers actually mild out the powerband, not sure if that's what you want, i prefer a hard hit.

I dropped the needle clip another notch today - now the bike pulls even harder down low, middle and up top. Kinda beastly when that pipe come's on.

About the spacer - I've read you can put them on two ways - the way they are 'meant' to go on, before the reeds or you can put the reed block in, then reeds, then carb boot for a low power 'hit.'

Anyone with experience wanna chime in?

[daniel_250r]

got out the 200s pulled it over 100 times tried everything, threw a few things and swore at it with no mercy

[Saul]

got out the 200s pulled it over 100 times tried everything, threw a few things and swore at it with no mercy

Get it running first or last?!

[daniel_250r]

never got it running i think its flooded, anyhow no tools out at the barn, next time i'm out i am bringing out a socket and taking out the plug and checking for spark next going to get a lighter and burn up the excess fuel

[daniel_250r]

today i put in a new plug she fired right up and went for a spin!

[redneck250es]

Well first today I hauled a cart load of wood to be piled. Next I pulled some small trees that I cut down near our skating pond. After that me and a buddy of mine hopped on our trikes and headed to my camp.:TrikesOwn

[walleyedude]

Took the Big Red on the lake for some ice fishing. Walleye weren't biting, only perch but I still had a good time.

[YTZ Money Pit]

i took my '84 R that was completely apart except for the motor being in the frame, and built it completely, borrowing a cupple parts off the X. it needs a shifter, so i couldn't take her out for a test spin:cry:

[ectfor2]

Went to Johnson Valley OHV and played in the mud and sand. As allways a great time.

[Saul]

My 34mm Keihin showed up today so I guess I'll be swapping out the stock 27mm carb for it later this evening. Also picked up some Amsoil wet clutch type oil - so I'll also be changing the oil while I'm out there.

[SmurfanCoke]

Decide to let the kicker on my 'r' attack me savagely...

WARNING : Do NOT try and kick an 'r' with muddy trainers while on a slope where you can't even get a natural 'straight-down' kick....

[The Goat]

invest in some peroxide...stat. lol.

I opened my bedroom door last night and looked at the triz covered in about 12 kingsized sheets...just sitting there on my porch. It's dawned on me that I may never get to that project...and it isn't really practical to do so either. So yeah, anyone want a triz? I may be willing to deliver for a fee.

I also looked longingly at the shed as I passed it, wishing I could go play rather than go to work.

[SYKO]

I put a weather cracked ohstu on my liquid R front rim so its a roller again, getting it ready for its trip to surgery later this week for a new heart...BUMPbumpBUMPbump...

[The Goat]

if I can get rid of this z...and some other stuff, I might have something that will run right there with you syko.

BUMPBUMP BUMPPPPPPP!

or should I say.....60hp

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

spent about eight hours on two of the three tri-z's i have polishing and washing.

[SYKO]

or should I say.....60hp


better bring more to the table then 60hp homie!

cuz im going to bring all 500levels of HELL with me! and trust me I will use every bit of it!

:crazy: :twisted: :twisted: :w00t:

[Russell 350X]

Put my new 450R exuast on the X the other night, rejetted it tonight, then the throttle cable snapped, no riding for me for a while :(

[Saul]

Wow - trying to stuff a 34mm carb in a boot designed for a 27mm carb is hard work.

Take a lot of boiling hot water - a beer bottle and some elbow grease to say the least!

[daniel_250r]

me and a friend headed out to my house, we took the carb off the tri moto cleaned the jets and it started to run like a fricken champ. so he hopped on the 125 and i got on my 200s and we headed out on the trails, i love riding my submarine :TrikesOwn

[Saul]

Very mild weather here today so I decided to drop my needle clip a couple spots. In hindsight I shoulda just dropped it down one notch. The trike was a lil boggy in the mid-range. I think having the clip on the second position from the top will be great for the rest of winter as it gets cold. Hopefully this spring/summer having the needle all the way lean will work. If not I guess another needle or something.

I also decided to change the tranny oil today and try out the new Amsoil 4 stroke wet clutch oil I found. It seems ok.

I was happy to see, while changing the oil, that she hadn't dropped her oil level any - so I guess my crank seals aren't leaking oil up to the head or anything.

[daniel_250r]

i went out to the barn took off my wheels and prepared to bolt on the rebuilt back end for my 200s

[redneck250es]

Did some cleaning up down at the family camp. :beer

[Saul]

Did some cleaning up down at the family camp. :beer

Now that looks like good times bro!!

[redneck250es]

[crashbang]

Last night I put a new front tire on my big red. Then went and did some donuts on redneck250es' lawn. Sorry no pics maybe next time

[redneck250es]

[Saul]

Good stuff youngrasher!!

[codemanlyons]

it was nice so i just had to go riding..

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

swapped out some fuel lines for two tri-z's i own.
the mantis had some dry rotted lines from the hot muggy, florida sun.
the other, had black lines, went to the clear type.looks alot better than black autozone type!

[BiggerRed]

I was in the garage putting JB weld on some small pinholes on the 250es tank and was prepping the 200e tank for paint. Also ordered a whole bunch of goodies from DRATV for the 70. Thats my next project once both BigReds are back on the road.

[brapp]

i pulled my doughter and ex girlfriend around on the sled with the atc 70, i moved a few trikes around. and made a case saver for the 350x's

[Georgia Boy 666]

got my '84 225dx running alot better than it did today, need to find a carb kit i believe- the needle likes to stick... then a few little things are also goin on lol- but it finally runs good!! yaaay!

[edog]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lhkZtyqKHY

[oldtime3wheeler]

Finally put mounting brackets on my 350x swingarm and mounted the skidplate. It is about 10 degrees out here. Took her out for a 30min run. Gotta love Carharts

[trike moto]

it is 13 below 0 to day so i just sat on my trike in the garage and dreamed it was spring

[userj8670]

The swinger came off the sx and the differential came apart.

[Gearheadtom]

The last thing I did with my trike was on Tuesday. I had to take off the front tire and put it in my basement because the valve stem was froze. It has been in the
-20's the past few days, and still is, but it might warm up a bit tomorow, so hopefully I can get the tire back on.

[nathanronan]

well today i tried getting my 81 250r running but no luck.

[tanks350x]

Well seeing that we got about 4 inches of wet snow on top of about 3 inches of ice, I figured I'd take the ole X for a rip.. I wish I could get some action shots but oh well

The only thing with my land that I ride on is, It's farmed in the summer months so the rows are choppy this year.. Damn Farmers!!! :lol:

[Russell 350X]

Got my 350X back together, after a mouse made its new home in my intake, had it running, runs good. Had the 125M and 250SX out in the snow playin around. sorry no pics.

[Gearheadtom]

The temperature warmed up a bit today, so I put the front tire back on my 200m after I took it off to put it in my basement because the valve stem froze. I had the motor running for about 30 seconds, just to see how hard it would start with the temp being in the -20's the past few days, it hasn't been running since Monday, and it was about -18 today. It didn't start to bad, but I had to run it on 3/4 choke and it wouldn't idle.

[robertmitch85]

new rear axle bearings, new fuel lines, adjusted the cam chain and vales, changed the oil with lucas raing oil, bought a NOS kill switch/light switch, and am going for a ride in a hour

[oldtime3wheeler]

Got about 3 to 4 inched today. Came home from work and plowed the driveway with my big red. Never wanted to clear my driveway till I got the plow set-up. Now I cant wait lol

[i58829]

Swapped a 200x front end onto the SX, i just need to get the steering stops welded on before the weekend. Here's a quick before and after, it only took about 45 minutes of actual work...

[atcmatt]

Cleaned My 250r for about 4 hours. Then pulled out the bigred and cleaned up the rear brake setup (full of mud and crap) and did a diff oil change. Glad I did, thanks to the guy with the beat on SX. Took them both for a sort ride and put them away! The red is so much more user friendly and cruisier than the R. Definately horses for courses.

Matt

[Dirtcrasher]

Rebuilt a front caliper for Deepa's 250R. Sent him off with his ATC70 (our next series of projects!)

And did some jetting on the 200X. Got it running about 90% with the airbox lid on so I must need to increase that mine quite a bit to get that lid off.....

[Coaltrain]

Bought a set of 350x forks and trees for my 200es off of fleabay to replace and up date the stock set.

[CRAZY70MAN]

Adjusted chain and cleaned chain guard out on 70 hybrid, ran her hard in the cold Ohio snow and swamp the other night! Worked on getting my new 90cc kaitham motor in the swamplady. Posted some pics of new project, in classifieds though? No ride today. Sold a tractor, ahh... more swamplady money!!! p.s anyone know where I can get some atc 70 mud tires pretty reasonable? good wheelies to all!!

[oldtime3wheeler]

Cleaned the carb and got my one 70 running. Pulled the gas tank off of one of my big reds and got it ready to fix the leak it has. Finally was able to break free one of the bolts that let you adjust the chain on my 350x. The changed the oil on the 350x and put a real nice set of Razr's on too. Plus alot of bolt tightening and lever swapping.

[Yamada]

Took the 225dx for a ride. Decide the bald duro knobby front tire needed to be replaced, so I ordered a Kenda Front Max. Should be able to pick it tomorrow.

[MonroeMike]

Took the engine out of my 83 YTM 200. Wish I could have power washed it first (too cold here).

[Saul]

Just installed a new chain and a new sprockets on my R. 12 tooth front - 40 tooth rear.

[Dammit!]

Stared at the mess surrounding them for a few minutes then went back in the house.

[mike from long island]

Stared at the mess surrounding them for a few minutes then went back in the house.

At least you made it out to them.It is snowing here and cold.So I looked out the window.Then just came back to the computer!!! LOL

[Mosh]

I honestly have not touched my big trikes in some time.
The last time I did touch one, I put this FMF fatty on my R and ditched the black DG I had. Around December?
http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/cosmicquads/Rcover2800.jpg

Been gettin the 70's dialed in, those are done.

I have been building a 310Z motor for a friend..
Next week I am doing a crank in a R engine for another friend..
Thats about it.

For once, my stuff dont need anything..

Except that dang coffee table Banshee thing of hers....

[MonroeMike]

Got my frame finally painted

[factoryX]

tore my Z apart....

[threewheelin-feelin]

i took my 350x gas tank to the powder coaters...i also took my swing arm for a estimate on coating

[oldtime3wheeler]

Nothing since Pennsyltucky, but clean the salt off of the big reds. Benn to bust with work. Going to be warm this Friday so i will play with them then.

[Saul]

Went to change the main jet on mine - must of have a faulty jet cause I went to put in a 158 main and it broke off in there before I even had it tight. Was able to get the lil piece of thread out and was forced to go with a 155. Luckily the 155 didn't break off. LOL.

Also slathered the frame and under carriage with WD-40.

[Yamada]

Yesterday I took my 225dx seat to the upholstery shop to put a new cover on it. I thought it would be nice to have a red seat be the guy told me it would be $25 more to order the fabrics. So I went with a black cover. Also bought a new shift shaft oil seal at the bearing shop. Cost me $5.08

Today I painted my homemade grab bar red.

[MonroeMike]

It was a warm 50 degrees today. Got the power washer out to start cleaning the engine off my 200. I couldn't get that brake cable off, for fear of cracking the housing, any trick to that?

[225dxyamaha]

let it sit in the garage up north (cottage).

[oldtime3wheeler]

Ripped half my 350x apart to fix some existing problems.

[clutchcargo]

I installed my freshly painted engine in my project Z. Just waiting on some parts from Sprock so I can get it running soon. I'm finally feeling like I'm getting somewhere.

[crashbang]

redneck250es and I went for a woods ride on some trails near his place. Man what an awesome time, I'd say it was the best wheeler ride we've had in a couple years, but it was hard going and we were soaked through to the bone when we got back. There was some mudholes that when we got off to push it was over our knees and I think we were the for at least 45 minutes getting both Reds unstuck. These holes were passible a few weeks ago but now there is over a foot of snow down in the woods and with ice breaking up it made for an interesting trip. Wish we had some pics avail. Maybe next time.

There a reason the big red is the best woods bike / mud bogger, cause you can get a good red down

[Saul]

stripped out every wire and cleaned em' up and re-routed them a bit.

There was about a roll of electrical tape there. The ground to the coil was rusty so I cleaned that up - traced back the wires for my head and tail lights etc etc.

While I was at it I cleaned my chain and blasted it with PJ1 - then slathered the trike full of WD-40.

[thefox]

I pulled the 110 motor apart, down to the bare cases. I then ordered some parts for it from DR ATV.. Maybe next weekend I can put it back together with a top end rebuild, new clutch, and fully cleaned/inspected lower end.

[pudding]

;) brother in law dave, needed another beer from the fridge, so he took the atc70, couldn't get through the door, luck sis brought a couple beers out, or we would have got thirstylol

i don't endorse drinking and driving, ......but it was funny to watch

[Russell 350X]

Fixed the exaust on my 125M yesterday, got the old 200 out that hasent been started since summer, 3rd pull! Got the Big Red out also, it has sat since summer without being run.

[daniel_250r]

3208 cat, roadranger, 40mph on the road if ya can hold it

[riverrat]

Exorcised the demons from it.

[saturnthegiant]

I live where the ice storm hit a couple of weeks ago, and there are limbs down everywhere, so i've been using the 200e to pull some pretty good sized limbs up to cut up and pile. My trike has been seeing some pretty heavy use the past 4 days. Also last evening i finally managed to tear into the 125m to see if the chain was broken or just came off---I got lucky it was just loose and came off! Slid her back on, tightened it up, and off i was good to go~~~~~!

[racerxxx]

Worked on the removal of the swing arm bearings and races. Prepping the rear diff and swinger assembly for glass beading. Will do an oil change while it's up in the air, makes working on it way easier!:beer

[riverrat]

I started it, to just to hear the sound it makes.

[The Goat]

exposed a couple of parts that have been purchased for the 350...

[aaron7]

Attempted to ride in 1.5' snow... just sat there spinning :p

[86 250r]

Took the cover off started it took it for a short ride down the road and then returned to the shop and covered it back up.

[doord521]

I am staring at the front door so I can put the parts on that are supposed to come in the mail today. Then I will do something to it...

[Twilight]

de-rusted the gas tank on 250sx, stared at 250r, stared at my honda invoice thats taking too long to come, and installed the rear brake, reverse and cables on my 250sx. Noticed I need 3 new tires =(

[ThinktwiceZ71]

i tried getting it to jet the right way. plus i ordered new maier rear fenders , new handlebar grips , new exhaust packing , new kenda bear claws and new rims. :beer

[3wheelerlouie]

what did i do today to the trike?? well i guess install the silencer and front brakes. got her purring like a kitten with the smaller carburetor :naughty: ..

[Gearheadtom]

I took an old plug wire from a car that I had laying around, and used it to make a new plug wire for my 200m.

[MO dx]

Changed the grips on my Dx for some shiny new ones

[oldtime3wheeler]

Put the oil cooler back on, a new pair of fork boots, and the motor skid plate on my 350x.

[oneroom42]

i stretched my frame 2 1/2'' on my '84 atc 70, and painted it metallic silver along with painting the wheels metallic silver. im getting there slowly but surely!

Sipped a couple brewskies in the process!!! madtriken'' I am on3eatin4 y'all:naughty: :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

[russell56443]

I rode the Red around and did a few chores,should have gotten a picture of me hauling the old love seat to the burn pile on the back,looked like a Beverly Hillbilly's deal with me sitting on the seat to keep it centered LOL!
Looked at the little 70 for a bit,I need some $ before I can even start on her :(

[aldochina]

cleaned the 200s axle up nice. Still trying to get the bearing carrier off the frame, got 3 bolts out, the forth, the one with the chain adjuster, the welds on the nut broke, so now it just turns, gonna try a cutting wheel on it tomorow, real pain in the ass!! I tried to chisel through the nut, but it is so galled, its like one piece of metal.

[Russell 350X]

Took the SX out this evening, tried to make it up the hill, about 1mile long, made it halfway up, but the snow just keep getting deeper and theres ice under the snow, so I didnt go any farther lol.

[3wheelerlouie]

well i got the ATC 70 going with a 110 lifan engine.. direct fit and i only had to use a honda carb cause the lifan had clearance issues.. :)

[Russell 350X]

Stripped my 84 big red frame down to get sent for sandblasting, waiting on the engine....

[Vealmonkey]

The great gazoo and I worked on his 1980 yt125 today. His clutch was slipping and before he bought the trike from me I put new clutch fibers and clutch plates in the trike. I found out the problem though, the clutch plates were a little too thin and we needed to replace with thicker clutch plates. We used the clutch plates I had in an old yt175 clutch basket and reassembled the clutch and everything was fine. We were going to use some heavy duty clutch springs, but bent part of the clutch while putting in the heavier springs, so we just used my extra assembly with the clutch springs. We removed a busted off bolt and was going to remove a second one but ran out of time. He got to test ride the 125 without the rear fender and he seemed much happier and said the clutch was no longer slipping.

[Russell 350X]

Took the 83 R motor apart that I got today for next to nothing, sucker was locked solid, got the jug off after fighting with it for 2 hours, then the crank was froze....dumped some used motor oil in the bottom end and let it sit for 30mins, she free'd right up.

[adrianc]

Ordered a new starter for the 225DRS, its the only thing that is letting her down at the minute on the trails.

[daniel_250r]

today i went out on the trails, they were completely flooded decided to cross a big pond and the 200 died in the water wich was up to the seat, then when i got it started again i foolishly tried the same hole and it died again and took an hour to get it fired back up again oh well still alot of fun

[225dxyamaha]

Drove down the cottage road that was a complete sheet of ice. While driving down the road i would mash the accelerator in 5th and let the wheels spin. It was fun!!

[i58829]

I made what appears to be a crop circle while trying to aerate my lawn in hopes of warmer weather. I actually took the pic saturday but just uploaded it today, but i did pay for my new to me 86 200x frame so i've been looking at lots of parts for that rebuild...

[trimoto.125]

Today, I split the bottom end cases on a 125 trimoto to swap cranks with my other trimoto 175 engine. Hopefully it will be completed soon and I will have a trike to drive again.

[atcmatt]

Put a new kickstarter gear setup in my 85 r. Fixed the slipping problemo. Thanks to the board member who hooked up a downunder brother. Then dreamed about riding it on the dunes on sunday. Im still trying to figure out what ratio and type of oil to run in it! Grrr.

Matt

[coteya]

Well this weekend i changed the oil, fix the brake(I was riding without brake for a long time) and found out the problem of a leaking tire.

[outtaline]

Stood in the back yard threw my crutches at it and screamed because my peg broke Friday and my 200x ran ove rmy left foot and I can't find the other damn parts that I need I hate having an 86 200x because so many parts are hare to find or discontinued and when you do find them the idiot that has them thinks they are gold.:twisted:

[Jared200x]

Nothing/ F@#cking Nothing At All....i Been Tryin' To Past A Kidney Stone Since 3am Monday Morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ThinktwiceZ71]

i got my maier rear fenders , new handle bar grips , muffler packing , kenda bear claw 22x12x8 tires , throttle cable , both new brake cables , 2 new brake levers . I would say i am gonna be buisy for a little bit !

it looks soo much better with the new rear fenders on my 85 200s tho ! when i got it a guy made / pieced a set together that was from a 110 ......it looked soo gay! i am stoked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MonroeMike]

Picked up a parts bike, YTM200. It came with a 34mm Keihin on it. The throttle stop screw broke is broke off in the carb body. The intake boot was trashed, I made one from a radiator hose. Starts right up now.

[cajun66]

Robbed a plug wire and cap off a Yamaha parts bike and got my 185S running. I then gave it to a friend so I would have someone to ride with.

[brapp]

i pieced this turd together i got a few weeks ago.

[Saul]

tried to get my back brakes working but it looks like the piston in the caliper keeps sticking. I dont think I'll ever buy a used caliper again. Shoulda did like 200xnewby and bought a new pitbike setup and fabbed a template to fit.

[benallen]

testing testing

[oldtime3wheeler]

Cleaned all the Hazelton coal mud off my 350x from yesterday.

[daniel_250r]

went out and pulled the drain plug on the 200s and saw the thick chunky grey oil pour out, the grey i know what it is from but i don't think it was ever changed. the plug took a TON of force to get off.

[Cottonwood]

Cleaned the carb and finally put a front fender on my 185s, tomorrow, figure out whats wrong with the pull cord and get it working again.

[bonkers_200s]

Not all tires last 23 years, they'll be recycled by tomorrow:(


I Highly doubt the new ones will last that long

[rdlsz24]

Yesterday I banged on my 200x swingarm bolt with a mini sledge a couple times just to confirm it's stuck. Then I went back in the house.

Rob

[Coaltrain]

installed a 55w h3 bulb in place of the stock bulb on my 200es headlight.

[aldochina]

Not all tires last 23 years, they'll be recycled by tomorrow:(


I Highly doubt the new ones will last that long

whats wrong with the ones in the truck, they look pretty good still


took the 250es out in the woods with the wagon, and got a few loads of wood for the stove, then I took my 2 year old for a rip up to see the progress on grandpas pond, got the trike covered in mud, went home.

[y2kane]

Well went out this morning and put my new (well new to me) front axle on my 185 monster. Went on without a hitch. I was starting to get excited. Knowing this machine has sat for some time I got out my starting fluid. I went to open the throttle up so I could get some fluid into the carb and the throttle would not move.... sprayed some carb cleaner in it to see if it would free up but I guess I am going to have to take off the carb and soak it and clean in out...That is a project for another day. I had to go out to my dad's to help dig a hole so we could bury my grandma's dog... long story in its self. Damn that ground was still frozen for about 6 inches down. had to use a pick ax.

[Gearheadtom]

Today I dug out my 200m from a big snow storm we had. I herd that it was 50-60cm by the end of it. I couldn't realy see any of my trike because of the way it drifted in.

[Yamada]

Realized a yfm 225 stator don't fit into the case of a ytm-225. Should have tried before installing the quad's wiring harness on the trike. Idiot

[Saul]

Installed new clutch friction discs and springs, a new clutch cable and a 150 main jet. Honestly feels like I have a new trike now.

[brapp]

i counted knobs on a set of turf tamer son the 250r and the lt500

[chris200x]

i counted knobs on a set of turf tamer son the 250r and the lt500

Wow! :rolleyes: I thought I was bored! LOL...

Not much else to do all day up there in PAtuckey eh?

My garden hose finally thawed so I washed my trike today. :cool:

[The Goat]

I arranged more back alley deals trading parts for parts trying not to spend any money...200 bucks shipped for an entire 350x rear including entire rear brake system?

ANYONE!

lol...

thought about calculating the total cost of this build...then decided I'd rather just sit in a corner and cry.

[MonroeMike]

I finally got one if my frozen YTM 200 axles out of the carrier. I took the whole axle off and stuck it in a 5 gallon bucket of used motor oil for two weeks. Worked so good, I have another frozen one in the bucket.

[MonroeMike]

Cleaned up my center hub.

[3wheelerlouie]

i got the 85R engine fired up and did some adjustments to the carb,suspension and added some 350X headlights .... the 200X is almost complete and will just need tires and wheels installed... oh and i started to put the 82R back together.. :)

[racsan]

pulled the cord and verified that it would still turn over. going to order a carb for it, rebuild or not, the stock carb needs changed.

[The Goat]

realized I'm missing more parts than I thought I was, I need a ton of rubber grommets...bolts, a rotor, a 35 tooth 450r sprocket...and I think that's it. NOT!!!!

convertint the spare bedroom into a new parts storage area.

[aldochina]

spent 2 or so hours trying to get the 200s front axle out of hub assembly. What a nightmare!! the axle was not frozen to the bearings, but to the brake drum cover or what have you. Its some kind of cast, ond the axle goes in it about 3 inches!! plenty of surface for some major galling. I was stoked when i finally new I was going to get it. Didnt even break anything.

[MonroeMike]

Painted a ytm 200 engine.

[Saul]

I arranged more back alley deals trading parts for parts trying not to spend any money....

did you actually arrange for these deals to take place in a back alley. Pretty gangsta of you. :beer

[fisher535]

:p I power washed and ran her in the snow for the first time.! Ran great!!!!

[outtaline]

I drove 12 hours to pick an 85 200x basket case i got for $50 on e-bay and he threw in tons of other stuff got a 250 es lower end if anybody needs parts :w00t:

[Nick_R_23]

It snowed almost a foot the other day so I got to finally try out the plow I made for my Big Red. I still dont have the winch hooked up, Im holding the blade up with a strap so every time I want to lower/raise it I had to jump off and manually do it. Still worked pretty good though, pushed that snow around everywhere!! Now if I can just hook up the winch, get some sandbags on the rear rack, and throw some tire chains on, itll be perfect!!

-Nick :TrikesOwn

[3wheelerlouie]

installed the forks on my 82 R and got a new top end installed on my 84R .. oh and had to go get some fuel, aparently someone needed it more than me and took the fuel container from my back yard on monday night. :mad: .

[Kintore]

Beat the living snot outa mine over the weekend racing. So a tranny oil change, a general lube up and some calm sweet talk was in order! :lol:

[3wheelerlouie]

that sucks.

they only took the fuel container , i had one of my trikes back there also and a number of tools on the work bench . i guess they just needed some gas :lol: .... their car is going to smoke because the guel was for my trikes , oh and was 20 to 1 ratio :lol: ..

[daniel_250r]

rewelded a head light ear for my 200s strong as ever

[zppeacock]

Put my rebuilt recoil on my 85 yama 200e and started it for the first time scene buying it.

[Autophysn]

not today, but went out last weekend. Played in some sand dunes, took a good spill and cracked one rib and burned my leg pretty good. Got right back on and kept riding. Bike never ran better. Kinda worried me in a way, you all say the R's run best just before they go, but oh well. Can't wait for the next trip ;)

[Gearheadtom]

Yesterday I took my 200m out and pulled my brother and his friend around the backyard on sleds. Today I'm going to try to make a Youtube vid with my trike if a buddy comes over.

[i58829]

Well i picked up this little 350x 2 weeks ago today, it came with over 1250.00 in motor/chassis bearing receipts so i called the shop that built it and he said they had over 1800 in it and the price was less than the motor work. It wasn't really painted the way i wanted it to be so last night i repainted everything that was baby blue but the taillight bracket, i put some decent z400 stock wheels/tires on the rear, white maier plastics, changed the oil, replaced a leaking fuel line, tightened up the rear end, polished the upper motor fins to take away from the drab black, and tried to clean it up a little.

The frame was pc'd but its not super good (ended up kind of dull), as well as the front and rear hubs, headlight guard, foot pegs and rear brake lever. It's a nice super tight machine and i have no idea whats in the motor but the whole bottom end was redone, crank was machined, bored with a new piston, all new valves, oem timing chain, oil pump, it just goes on and on. The best part is this thing flat out flies.

My only other plans are to buy a junk or plastic tank because the one on it is dent free, and i'm gonna take off the headlight because its a lot cleaner than most aside from the one lens. Oh yeah and i plan to ride this one as much as i can. We're going out around lunch time today, TC...

[The Goat]

mailed my frame away....

[hublake]

Completely disassembled my 73 Atc 70. Getting it ready to restore it and having it ready for Sandpuppies ride in August at Rose City. It was the easiest thing to tear down. Not one nut or bolt broke.

[drsung]

Finally got my 84 200S that I bought a while back running today. Cleaned and redcoated the gas tank. New Carb. New Fuel lines. New sparkplug. New airfilter. New (used from ebay) factory exhaust.

She fired up on the 3rd pull and runs great! Now to change the oil (probably should have done that first) and get it cleaned up a bit.

[brapp]

today i fell trough the pond. didnt realise the damn broke and there was 6 feet of air under the ice and then the water

[braunz200x]

hahaha thats awesome

I cleaned my rear skid for my 200x and bled both f&r brakes

[firehart]

I moved all of mine into a line in the backyard. I think I'm going to take the 125m down to the DMV after work on Monday and see if I can get a title for it.

[chasthanhburns]

225dx took it down to river and putted around. still having problems with lack of power dont know why but was still fun.

[Gearheadtom]

Today I had my 200m out for a run around the yard. I new it was running rich so I decided to drop the needle on the slide one notch, then I realized it was down as far as it would go.

[MonroeMike]

Started clutch work on the Honda

[trimoto.125]

Attached the Trail Tech Vapor to the 225drs, took about an hour to fit, covers rpm, speed, engine temp, shift lights, etc.

[zppeacock]

Changed my Rear Diff Fluid in my yama

[Saul]

Slapped a leaner needle in my R - but still have to run it on the leanest setting. Damn.

[oldtime3wheeler]

Traded a trike. Then when I got home I hooked a buddies heavyduty lawn roller to my big red and rolled my little pasture

[JohnR.]

Pushed it back so I could get into my toolbox and do some work in the house. Tomorrow two of the trikes are getting TLC.

[big schott]

Took my newley restored 250R for its maiden voyage.

I took it easy not to get it dirty but, It ran GREAT!!:Bounce :w00t:

[tri-Z ripper]

took out the 350X and the 125M and ripped it up on some of the family trails half deep snow half mud was alot of fun!

[1BFC]

Did that 4 wheeler make up back up the hill??? The camera guy sounded a little worried! :lol:

Oh yeah... X man made it up the hill just fine! They are all excellent riders on modern 450R style ATV's of various manufacturers. I'm the odd ball of the group :)

[oscarmayer]

sat. we went ridin for a good 2 hours or so. the neibore guy who's 2 blocks over and has the woods behiund him we ride at has some cheapo chinese quads. i fixed 2 of them so they coudl ride and one was a kiddie 50cc. my son had never ridden anything like that before, he has a sitting area where in front you can view about a 150ft dirt oval where the kids can learn to ride and use throttle control. my son spend about an hr just doing circles cause we were teaching him throttle control and how to sue the brakes correctly. by that time he had it down pat! in the middle of it are 4 small trees and some flat rocks that minda stick up and a stump or two. he started workong on manovering through the trees, over the rocks and stumps on his own. he naturally woudl roll up to the rocks, roll the fronts voer and slowly and easy tap the throttle to get the back tires over the step and he was off and going again! i was apaized at how easly he learned on his own! we didn't teach him that! the atv had died a coupel of times on him and he watched me start it. the enxt time it dies, he started it himself. i was like WOW he's too smart! He learned by just watching! It's exciting to see your kids not only learnign but having a blast while doing it. over all was a very fun day. the neibor guy and his older son (whos's cheapo quad kept having issues) took turns ridin my red and they are gettin hooked on trikes. haha he's saying he's liking it more and more. the kdi loves it he says compaired to his quad. more power but it's more of a fun ride than jsut sitting and turning. (which is what i have always preached) the quads had slight issues throughout the day, but the red has not a single hickup even with abotu 2 hours of running time solid on it. they have a big kawa 4x4 quad 360 model that was getting a bit warm and they had to turn off every so often. not the red. it's be left ideling while we were eating and what not.

[Saul]

Just put a 200x front end on my 82R. Love it!!

[Mackee]

Disassembled and clleaned the carb. I had a new float bowl gasket cut at my Yami dealer. I will be putting the carb back together tomorrow and hope she cranks. If she fires up, this will be her final run before she gets torn down (if there aren't any more issues).

[dcreel]

Put the 250R fender on the front of the 200x, replacing the pink maier vented fender. Pulled the rear wheels off to replace with the 18" turf tamers supposedly on 4x110 wheels I got off ebay. They don't fit, going to have to go tomorrow and have the turf tamers put on the 200x wheels. Replaced the whole brake system on the 200X. It now has rear brakes. :w00t: I'm excited.

Now if I win the Bassani exhaust on Ebay. I'll be stoked and the wife will ride the 200X. As soon as I get the thumb throttle on there.

I got the stator cover to remove the Goki starter monstrosity off the side. I'm afraid of what I'm going to find underneath it. I know a toothed gear is pressed on to something. I will have to remove that. Then it will be whole again. woot woot!!

[Gearheadtom]

Today I took my 200m out for a drive around the yard. I realized that I can now stay on top of the snow where I haven't had a trail at all this winter. I took some pics while I had my trike going. The piece of wood sticking up I about 5 feet long, and only 2 1/2 feet is sticking up.

[oneroom42]

today for my 84 atc 70 i wrapped the custom seat i made because i stretched the frame 2 inches and kept the gas tank tight to the front. i also painted the foot pegs after fabing a foot brake for the little machine. i cant wait til its on the trails!!:beer

[racerxxx]

Worked on the rear swing arm on my 250SX, doing a little overhaul, did the tear down a few weeks ago. Bead blasted all the parts, bought a powder coat set-up from Eastwood, got a free oven and started to powder my own parts. Super stoked about the PC, still figuring things out but I have been very happy with how it's going. Just did an assembly to see how it all looks together, still need a bearing and seal kit for the diff and a few other odds and ends. With how the swingarm assembly looks I feel bad about putting it on the old beast, but eventually I'll get to the rest. Also got some of the Evapo-Rust some of the guys have been talking about---that stuff is da bomb, eats the rust right off of the hardware. I wish I would have know about it years ago!:w00t:

[Chaps80]

The snow finally melted enough so I was able to take the 225dx out for a ride on the trails today. First trail ride of the year!!!:)

[oldtime3wheeler]

Just pulled all the boys out and rode them around the yard for awhile

[brapp]

i drained allthe gass otu of everythign i won and ocoate dthe insid eof the tanks because as it looks i am not gonnabe ridign for along time.

[85200xrider]

well after i fished the valve adjusting screw out of my cylinder head....i re-sealed that all up....readjusted my valve....seem fine now

got bored and polished my cdi cover, valve covers, timing mark and crankshaft hole caps. Then took my kick starter cover off to figure out why my kicker likes to hit the ground....couldnt see anything worn out so i put that back together.

im thinking tomorrow i might polish up my left crankcase cover....but not sure

[Dave's1985200X]

I finished taking a couple of more bolts that snapped out, got the exhaust back on, switched over to the nice seat and changed the oil!!! I am also going to media blast both skid plates and repaint them this week(found a media blaster at work.........who knew!!) Oh yeah.....and fired it up after the oil change... ca't wait, it's getting close.

[MonroeMike]

Started assembling the rear end of one of my Yamaha's.

[buck]

Installed a new footpeg mount that was bent on my 350X when I purchased it. Now I need to get off my rear and get the tank done so I can get this barn find up and going.

[Saul]

Grinded off my steering stops today. Mucho better now homies!!

[aldochina]

took the bigred out for a ride, nice combo of mud,snow, and ice, good times. A little harry going down some of the steep icy trails, whatever you do stay off the brakes!!!

[1985BigRed250ES]

got the frame, forks and headlight bucket painted. waiting on the motor to get finished, and still cleaning parts. now I need to get bearings and seals for the front axle a new brake cable, brake lever and mounting hardware. still got a ways to go lol

[gizmo_22]

What i did today was go mining for 200x's lol, more specifically my 185autox as you can see it was deeeeeeeep... it was covered at the start of winter, but it somehow is missing its cover :wondering Anyways all is well, theres a little surface rust on the forks i need to clean up and the tune up stuff, but couple pulls and she was purring like a 185 should lol. Sorry about the pics, they were taken with a cell phone.

As you might notice the handlebars sticking out on the left side of the pic, thats the 185s, awaiting a new wiring harness for it. and not in the pic is a cr250 COMPLETLY burried... sigh I'm tired of shoveling.

[axl_rose]

Put a new spark plug in, removed the front wheel and dropped it off at Triad Powersports to replace the dry-rotted front tire, put a new battery in....fired up on the first press of the starter.

Met a cool guy over at the Polaris Dealership who owns a bunch of three wheelers.

[leevarnado]

went to the river,rode some hills.link to the pics.http://s389.photobucket.com/albums/oo333/leevarnado/river/looking for a few local trikers to ride me.

[Chaps80]

Hit the trails today and ended up getting swamped at a creek crossing that was about 2 feet deeper than it was on Sunday.:lol: Ice on both sides, front tire hit the underside of the ice and that was it. No where to go. Pulled it out myself by hand in about 2 minutes. Gotta love trikes.

[Bryan Raffa]

490 Revisited :twisted:

[3wheelerlouie]

installed a twist throttle and got the carb rebuilt on the 85 R" , its like a night and day diference .. the dang thing scares me a little, gotta love the 2 stroke trikes :) ...... i also started to remove parts from the 350X and dipping them in evapo-rust , that stuff works great !!

[aaron7]

thought about my trike today, and how much I'd like to ride it lol

[money89tractors]

Woo. first day out of the house in 8 weeks!! what do i do? buy another trike :D

83 or 84 tri zinger.

[Mackee]

Worked on my carb for a while, AGAIN...Lost the spring on my pilot screw and never found it. I knocked of the work bench. Now, I have to order the whole set just for a spring...My own fault.

Can anyone tell me if the o-ring on the needle jet is the same one that goes on the valve seat. After 25 years, they are shot. All the one's I have found have been a close match but just not good enough. Guess I will be ordering that too.

At this rate, I may never get her running good before I tear her down.

I now have the brakes complete except for new brake cable springs...It is not a part you can get anymore and mine are collapsed on themselves. At least I haven't been able to find one. Looks like a trip to the hardware store for a close match.

[Russell 350X]

Worked on a co-workers 81 250R today, then had to go do some tire work on another friends 185S, tomarrow, fixing the 350X exaust leak and clean the garage.

i did some wrenchin' on my 350X , new plug and carb rebuild ... got her fired up and WHOA!!!! she is a beast , LOADS of torque and easier to control compared to my "all or nothing" 250R .. anyhoo, at least i know the engine is in good condition, found out it has a new top end with a nice wiseco piston and almost no run time on it as it was squeaky clean on the top of the piston , head and cylinder walls .:w00t:

[thefox]

I ordered a new carb. for the 110 and did some assembly. I also got some bondo practice in on the tank. Looks like the weather forcast turned colder then originaly predicted so I wont be able to pain the tank and forks this week as planned. It will warm up at some point I hope!

[outtaline]

Haha, yeah same here. I think I ended up pushing it off the trail a little ways and just falling asleep on the back of the machine, and got a ride in the morning.

working on the 350x 450r conversion. Tore the swinger out and did alot of measuring of the frame and 450r swinger to figure out how much needs to be machined of the swinger. Got the die gringer out and cleaned off the paint and all the places were the gussets are going to be welded. Cleaned up the 450r motor and figuring out all of these wires...Thank you Brapp for the cluster F*ck of wiring. hahaha. The wheeler has been put on the back burner but iam getting the itch now so work has started.

[ScottZJ]

I cleaned up the tecate after the first big ride. Added chrome shifter and kicker, Then put a green kawasaki rear shock cover over the 300ex and added a NOS rear tail light.

polished up the rear axle, took a wire wheel to the rear rims after spraying some easy off on them. wire wheeled the rear hubs, caliper and sprocket and layed some primer on the rims hubs. trying to decide what color to paint them.

[Nick_R_23]

:w00t: I rode my 70 around today!! Got the tank mostly cleaned out and put filters on the lines, put it all back on and itll fire up first pull! Rolled it out the door and played around in the yard for about a half hour. This thing is a blast!!! If anyone out there has never ridden a 70 you are sure missing out!!

[cajun66]

You weren't watching the volcano?

I added a 50 pound brick of lead to the front of my 200 to see if it would help it steer.

[85200xrider]

got the rims painted with aluminum paint...painted the hubs black and got it all back together:w00t:
