    call me Harvey Spooner Jr.

    I have a really nice 110 rear fender and brackets that I'm sure nobody local wants. then this 110 pops up for sale a few weeks back, price keeps dropping so for 100 bucks I went and bought it. it's got spark, maybe low compression or out of time? it pops and spits out the carb. 2 rear tires are usuable has the recoil, motor spins free. I've got a 125m tank and the plastics. after this one I'm selling or trading a few off. it's getting crazy. jim

    Just been in the motor, I see rtv between the case and cylinder. I've got spark but I'm also got a loose timing chain! Went in and lined it all back up but I'm thinking it jumped. I tightened the tensioner but I doesn't seem to be doing anything. Will a 125m tensioner work on a point style 110? jim

    well it didn't jump time, the breaker plate was in the wrong position, got it corrected, barely runs on, loosened the valves, going to try a different carb off my 185s and see if that helps. found a front motor mount on a spare 125m motor. jim

    I don't understand the Harvey Spooner joke.

    Hairy Spooner I would get a laugh out of.

    I love watching his you tube videos of always bringing home more trike projects. If I had the room, I'd have a lot more. jim

    We were texting each other play by play this weekend as I was working on the 200x I picked up. You will get it started. There is a 110 motor on FB Marketplace in Phx. At least there was last week.

    the guy I bought my 185s from last Friday has a 110 motor for 80 bucks.
    9 pm last night, I was spraying wd40 down the intake and spinning the motor. I'll spin it with a drill motor when I get home and report back. wish me luck! jim

    hooked a drill, poured some gas in it and past the leaky petcock and it started up with the drill motor! smokes, but maybe it's the wd40 and gas that's been poured down the carb. after running about 15 seconds, I did a compression check, its up to 100 pounds now!. jim

    Sounds like fun Jim. I started with an 80 110 about 3 years ago. Then a 185s. Then a 200s. Then another 200s. Then a 200m. These bikes are just so fun to ride, durable, dependable. And they handle upgrades and modifications quite well. I honestly dont know what I like about them the most. Probably wheelies!!
    Enjoy your collection and keep wrenching

    my first trike was early 80s a 110. been playing with these on and off since. It seems people are dumping thier broken projects and I'm just getting them, fixing them and collecting them lately. I'll probably get back down to 2 maybe 3 in the near future. jim

    little progress, cleaned the jets, new petcock and got it to pull start once then it doesn't want to start, pull the plug and there's a small chunk of carbon in the gap, second time I see this. cleaned the plug and it runs again. thoughts are the carbon on the piston, head is breaking apart and burning off. Only thing I have is carb cleaner so I sprayed a bunch down the carb and inside the cylinder this morning. Ordered a new carb ( choke springs missing) And well see how it runs this afternoon. jim
