    Hi Performance ATC frame that had a yamaha R5 engine in it. The R5 is a 2 cylinder 2 stroke 350cc non reed valve engine that was the predecessor to the RD350 engine. Not like you find these kinds of things everyday in the backwoods in a big old barn/garage just south of the city of Baltimore Maryland.

    Here's the story. http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthr...ally+found+one

    This is exactly how it looked when I picked it up. I didn't even put air in the tires yet.




    This is how it looked after a good cleaning, rebuilt carb, and repainted tank due to a dent.

    Got this from my buddy who had it for two years in the back of his shop behind an unfinished jeep project. He found it in a barn non running and got it for his kids. I hounded him to buy it from the first day I saw it but he kept saying he was going to get it running for his kids. I must have worn him down or caught him in a weak moment because he said $400 cash today and its yours! Got it home, cleaned the carb and my daughter has been riding it ever since. This pic is right before I loaded it up to take home. Not as cool as the finds above but I sure was excited to get it.

    I picked this up from a guy who kept it in a lean two as a spare, in case they ran out of quads, go figure. He didn't even know it had oil to change. Fortunately it didn't get ridden much. Picked it up for $200, didn't run. Fresh gas, spark plug and a carb clean and it runs like a top. Completely original. It needed a tail light lense, and un-bent foot pegs, which I found. Still waiting to find a perfect choke cable and it will be just like the day it was made.
