1987 125m with 83-85 200x cam upgrade New pics Added

I have a chance to purchase a 1987 ATC 125m for a hundred bucks . It defiantly needs work . Needs a New seat , gas tank , fenders look ok but faded and he says it smokes . Looks to have sat 95% of its life not in use . My question is are parts hard to find for these .

Yes the 2nd gen 125m is about as rare as they come for trikes

^ Isn't most of it shared with the 85/86 and 87??

I thought 85 was the year stuff got changed??

86 and 87 are the 2nd gen the 85 was just like a 110 ......and yes the 86-87 is the hardest bike to find parts for......i have some used parts if your willing to ship from the UK.

I'll look in the pile of junk that came with it tomorrow . Will an 85 125m carb work I know i have a few of those .

**leevarnado** · 09-11-2009, 09:30 PM

idk if the 1st gen 125 carbs will work.

**shortline10** · 09-13-2009, 08:07 PM

This sat in a shed so long that the original front tire rotted and cracked wide open . Dont think it has much ride time on it . I already put a new front tire on it just so i could roll it around the shop . Need to find a gas tank , seat and a better set of rear fenders . The bike is in much better condition than the rear fenders so I guess they got left out side or somthing .

awesome,i'd like to have one of those some day !
keep the pics coming on the restoration.

**shortline10** · 10-09-2009, 06:31 PM

Just been collecting parts . Ill probably clean the carb and try and fire it up this weekend if I get a chance .
