    If you answered my post, I have no switch on the 3-wheeler. Just a tether kill swith to stop it.

    if its that rare, fix it the right way the first time. because from what i gathered from the rest of your responses, it kind of sounds like your rigging it just enough to get you by...

    My bikes stalk me. I can hear then screaming for hours after a long day of riding.

    Guys,Dustrunner has left out quite a bit here. This 87 ES of his was flipped down the road before he got it if I remember right. Then, He was riding it up a hill that he had climbed a 100 times before I think? And it threw him off. Freak accident that happens to all of us. What he left out is, it broke his back and there is no reason he's still walking or breathing. And now after he's fixed it up,it's taken off twice on it's own. Parking brake groove not what it used to be ?? Could be. BUT,, this bike has a very real past with a long trail of a lot of money and pain and suffering behind it ! Anyhow,if anyone wants a good running 1987 ATC 250ES for $1200,get ahold of him and report back after a year lol !
