    Eric - that story is crazy - too bad people robbed it of parts and busted it up! I'm excited for you that you are re doing it. Should be a challenging build that is totally worth it in the end. Good luck with it buddy!
    RIP - Yamahondaman!! You will never be forgotten!
    RIP - Sam Brehm!! Gone but NEVER forgotten!
    RIP - Sandpuppi101 - You will live on in my mind - I miss you friend!

    The bikes do pop up every now and then, and thanks to 200x350xTri-z250 for posting a link to one in N.C I was able to drive down and pick up a complete running bike for a song. Pretty much everything interchanges on them.....thankfully.

    Cool story, Rebuilds of this nature take time, dedication, and patience. You seem to have all those going for you.


    Another thing!!!! Thanks for posting that web page, It doesnt show up on my site home home page and I thought it was LOST FOREVER when they converted the sites!!!!! Sweet!!! I know Andy was thinking of putting one together.
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.


    Check out my Tiger 3 wheeler Webpage..my quest for a TIGER MUSEUM started 2004 http://sites.google.com/site/tigerrotax/home

    You'll definitely have an awesome story once it's restored. When you get it running I'd take it back where you found it and get a pic of you jumping it out of the ditch.

    Hopefully, I'm not too far behind you on starting my restore.

    try asking around and see if any of your friends family still has the parts they took off the bike.


    This is my trike.
    There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My trike is my best friend.
    It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life.
    Without me my trike is useless.
    Without my trike, I am useless.
    I must roost faster than my enemy who is trying to beat me to the finish.
    I must beat him before he beats me.
    Before God I swear this creed.
    My trike and myself are defenders of track.
    We are the masters of keeping quads the losers.
    So be it ... until there is no quad left.
