    finally a 70

    Well, I have been looking for a while. Had the itch for a new trike. I have an R, and that is plain scary, a 84 BR that is a great and dependable trike but I needed a 3rd to complete the fold. I had plans for a misslile as far as a new project but with a rokon in the fold, it was hard to justify atm. So I needed a small bike. I was even lookin at Edogs 90 that he had customized a couple of years ago. It still looks great on some of the pics but I already have a 'stupid fast' bike and a hardtail that is close in size. I wanted something different. A 70 dropped on CL today and I went to take a look.

    300 bucks, runs on first pull after sitting for 4 months (no lie as he had 3 flat tires and it was buried in shed) Came with a second motor. Seat is good, tank so/so, plastic sorta ugly but not cracked/broken. Took it for a spin at home..man o man these things are fun!!!!

    Also got to use the new 'winter truck' to hall the load. I usually get a junker but the wife talked me out of it this year.

    a 124? heck i hopped on and practically ran into the side of the house...it seems the rear 'ballast' is greater than the tendency to steer, must lean.......

    Thats sweet!! Glad you found a good one, won't take long to get you 100%

    My yard is a perfect 70 track! Maybe I should downsloap some things and remove the "death gap" before winter??


    Gotta get my head out my arse, 70 parts are cheap!!

    Can't wait to have you by for some DEATH MATCHES!!!!

    I honestly picture this all not coming out so well...... (as far as human injury goes......)

    It makes me wanna go run the backhoe!! I need DIRT!! DAMNIT!!

    ^ It was a "one line" track, THATS the issue...... Now pry baring your 70 into place is possible, along with the tree, rocks and big stump.....
