    The things I do for her.........

    So as if I wasn't already busy enough with trying to finish up my own projects and getting ready for my Annual Training my wife asks me if I could help her paint her ATC 110. I've been workin on it since Friday night and was up till 2 in the morning Saturday morning and just finished it up a at midnight tonight.

    This is how it looked when I painted it a few years ago and took it to trikefest last year. She wasn't really happy with it and wanted to paint it purple. So I set about spray painting the fenders, tank, forks and headlight cover.

    Here's how it looks now basically ready for trikefest 2014. Just need to hook up new fuel line and put in a new pull rope since the one in it is really short.

    She's so happy shes almost dancing lol. My next project is an auto X since she's not comfortable with a clutch. They used to sell purple scoops/shrouds for the 200x in the 3ww shop but I don't see them now. Hopefully they will come back or I'll find a set sometime. For now though shes happy with the 110

    Let me know if the purple X shrouds become a necessity, I can probably make it happen for you. I would need to know exactly which maier color you need.

    Trike looks great!, i like the tank stickers. Why the green hubs?

    She wanted something to stand out against the purple so that's where the green hubs came from. And the purple has glitter paint over the entire thing. That had to be the hardest part lol, just making sure there was an even coverage of glitter. I really hope that I can find a good used set of them shrouds. Her auto x is one of them things ive been working towards and just now have the money/time to do it. It sucks that they don't make any more

    So the purple 110 was a HIT! Its just to bad she didn't ride around more to show it off. It also made the group photo and is just to the right of the 3ww banner as you look at the picture. She is saying now that she wants to be spoiled and have reverse and e-start so I'm gonna try to look for a 250sx for her. Thanks to everyone that complimented it while we were at TF14.
