I'm the one with all the 2 stroke around here!
The day begins with 3WW
The Zuks are kind of hard to find parts for and dont have alot of torque.
Zingers are cool.
But 70's just have an almost infinite amount of parts and possibilites for them. Drop a 125 engine in one with CDI system, there is not much they want take you up on the trails. Stopping is a issue though sometimes, but you can fix that also. But they are the biggest of the small guys.
Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...

4 Wheels? Huh?
They are extremely fun and very reliable. They are the most simple engine design I have ever seen. Kawasaki uses almost the exact same motor in their newer two stroke 50's.
The only part that is hard to find it the front fender. You can still order NOS OEM Yellow rears for it. Other than that the motor, coil, sprockets, etc are still being produced and sold.
AS you guys can tell I am partial to the Trail BUddys lol.
Bone stock the YT60 is a great little trike.

Yeah i think ill get a suzuki then since i can get one right now. Plus i live in a hick town so i think cops wouldnt bother me with a 49cc displacement vehicle, since thats part of what defines a moped (no displacedment over 50cc)

You may have a hard time fitting on a alt50. Even the zingers will cramp up a 6 footer. The 70, as Mosh stated have more available parts and are larger for big kids like usSlap 125 or above motor in one and you will never be the same..lol All are fun still....good luck

Yeah im 6 foot i would do the 70 thing but i dont have enough budget for that and the 50 seems to be what i want for the right price, plus i like unique trikes,already own a scrambler, a manco, might as well add a suzukiYou may have a hard time fitting on a alt50.

I personally dont think there is anything funnier than seeing full grown men racing a 3 wheeler designed for kids. Having said that I am in the beginning stages of building a 70 for my self.

I dont know. Wife was kind of upset last year that I went she had something that she has done every year on the same weekend. I think Ill probably stay home this year and let her do her thing. Then 2013 will be my year again. It might not be done by then too, I dont know. I have been scraping money up to fund it. I am starting to run out of places to scrape.

ATC70 all the way. Stock for stock a Zinger wil take an ATC70 off the line but since you can't shift a Zinger it tops at a pretty low speed and then the ATC70 walks on by. You just can't beat 4 gears, chain drive and the awesome parts selection of the ATC70. You can even convert to hand clutch if you like. Plus an ATC70 is a bullet proof engine, the others not so much. The other 2 bikes aren't even in the same league.
