    1985 ATC 70 build

    I bought a 1985 Honda ATC 70 to completely go over every nut and bolt. I decided to go with a blue frame and fork and everything else will have gold silver and black accents. Ill be posting pictures when I have a minute to hop on my computer. I will be doing hydro graphics on the tank in white skulls. Plastics wil more then likely be carbon fiber unless I vinyl wrap them. I will have a lot of stock good parts for sale when im done also if anyone is interested in anything.

    Um id like to upgrade motor but ive already got about $800 invested im replacing every nut and bolt and powder coating everything I can. I was considering a big bore 88cc kit but not quite sure yet ill worry about motor last after I completely restore the bike. This will be my 9th bike im doing most of them for customers. Ill be taking tons of pictures. For now will be keeping it mostly stock (sprocket size, tank etc). I may also do pit bike bars but once again im indecisive about my personal projects and have to make up my mind lol

    Yes we do. Hoping to get a nice weekend with some snow, bon fire, beer, and the 70's! Geryville pk is 10 minutes from me. Go past it all the time.

    I've got a 125 Chinese pit bike motor I got from another member on here. It needs a left crank case half. Threw the chain and busted it. I'd let go of it cheap if you are interested. I traded some things for it, but never used it in mine.

    yes with that tecate I bought it completely torn down if you recall when I ended up getting the 250 c_c motor together the case and it up being cracked under the flywheel. so I picked up a KX 500 engine from Craigslist and throwing that on then I traded that one for a couple other bikes and that's kind of how it all started I've always had a thing for the small 70s I recently had one with 125cc motor is it was awesome it was so fast.
