    I don't know how I forgot to post this...

    I should have posted this weeks ago! I was in the Fryburg, PA "Mayfest" parade last month with the Tionesta gang, and as we passed the judging area, I was waved over. I was awarded a trophy for "best child on a 4 wheeler". Not a child, not a 4 wheeler, and I got the trophy... God Bless America!
    PS the crowd seemed to like my helmet, I heard allot of laughing behind me... either that, or a middle aged fat guy on a 70 is humorous...

    Thats a given, I was wondering about the US rating. I come from a place full of Icelanders and your lid is the official summer party hat of Gimli Manitoba. Made me home sick.

    PS. Nice trike.

    Yup, fat guys on 70's is funny. I'm 6'3" and 250, I used to ride my 70's to work all the time. I would get lots of rubber neckers doin doubl takes and pointing, when I rode the 140 people were really shocked to see that lil trike carry my big arse at 40 plus mph down the shoulder of the road.

    Sweet helmet and trike by the way

    Tell us you also wore a lid like ACT350Xer and you'll be my hero for life.

    Well Bill, it's been a work in progress... no real plan, lol
    It was never meant to be pretty, just fun. It has a manual clutch Lifan 125 with a Supertrapp silencer welded to a pit bike header(the Supertrapp was cut in half, so I didn't ruin a nice piece). It had a stock 70 tank on it, but I couldn't get the fuel to travel uphill, so I welded a couple of mounts on and bolted on the CRF70? tank. I couldn't get the carb to sit where it should, so I found an adapter to put the carb wherever you want. It kind of gets in the way, but I like the way it looks. Tractor Supply LED trailer lights for taillights(cut round holes in crappy fenders and the included grommet finishes it nicely), CT70 ears welded onto ATC70 forks, with an ATC90 headlight(Tiger Haired and Bondo'ed over the switch hole). 1980 Honda moped forward controls, snow blower rear tires, and an ebay beverage holder round it out. It is a hoot to ride, one of my personal favorites.

    Thanks my friend. I asked Peepers if you or him might like to take it to TF and wail on it... if I can't go, maybe one of my favorite wheelers can! hehe
