    Talking New to the site and LOVE IT!

    Hey, Just wanted to say hello to everyone and share a little. I just picked up a couple of ATC200ES's. Both were hurt real bad and the one is seized as well as missing plastics and wheels.... anyways with about two days of repairs I have assembled one "usable" three wheeler. I have been in love with these things since the first time I worked on em and I was very glad to finally acquire one of my own. Being a licensed motorcycle tech working in a Honda shop you'd think I would have seen more of these things come through cratered (I like to pick up the blown up ones)... But the damn things are invincible and run forever.

    Since getting the ATC about 2 weeks ago I have built two little trailers for it that I tow the kids in, One from an old homemade sidecar and the other from a Honda quad crate and tent trailer seats... LOL!. The kids think it's the best thing in the world and now I'm after some little three wheelers for the kids. (can't keep my three year old of the thing, she keeps running into the garage and starting the damn thing).

    Anyways. I just finished pressing the axle straight today and need to reinstall. I held off on fixing that part because the kids never wanted to shut the unit down. Thought I'd share that with you guys and hope your all having a great day and I can't wait to expand my collection.

    I was very glad to find this site and see so many people keeping these things alive. Take care.

    Welcome fellow Albertan! If you look in the "Groups" area there is one for Big Red Riders. It's new but is seeing some decent traffic. Post some pics of your machine and the trailers. Just remember, helmets must be worn on action shots or the pics will be deleted; all for good reason.

    Thanks for the info about the action shots, (guilty of not reading the rules). Just removed the one picture. I'm definitely going to check out that group. The trailers aren't anything special, just welded them up in couple hours each out of crap I had lying around the garage.
