Wow, Nice trike! You did a nice job restoring that.I've never seen a blue one before.

**thedeatons** · 10-15-2005, 11:44 AM

Very nice and excellent researching. My only question is why you didn't do a complete frame off and have the engine painted/detailed also?? It's getting way hard to find the NOS stuff, especially plastics, so I can really appreciate what you've done. A quick question though... Where did you find the NOS Ohtsus and are they the 22x11x8s? I looked for these quite a bit but had no luck. Let me know. Thanks, James

hey James
thanks....the only reason i did'nt do the frame is because i have a NOS frame coming from the States.....shipping has taken 3 months so far.....so soon as it turns up i'll swop everthing over should'nt take to long....and i just could'nt wait any more to see what it looked like

as for the tires got them on ebay...took a year to find some ...one at a time....i did try and get some from servicehonda but when they turned up they where the later chevron patttern which i will use on the 87 125m when i get round to it.....

thanks bro.....
hopefully should get the frame next week barring UK customs

also got a stash of rare NOS parts with the frame in a crate...hopefully it's going to be christmas next week

Let me know if you end up with any 185S parts you don't need in there... I know what you mean about the Chevron tires, the Pro Am II's. I have them now for my restoration. They were the only ones available... Good to hear about the frame, I know what you mean about being impatient... James

thanks..yours looks mint as well

..i managed to find some nice front forks .....had a nightmare finding some paint (pb122) but got something close...just waiting on it now.......

These blue 110 seemed to be one of the hardest ones to find and to get plastic for. I've been contemplating on repainting the fr forks on my 110[if I do it will be single stage eurethane}

**wolfspider** · 10-17-2005, 12:55 PM

looking awesome pete, very nice job on a super rare atc!!!!

**Vealmonkey** · 10-17-2005, 09:59 PM

I've got a blue atc70. It has messed up front and rear fenders. Did you find any NOS blue atc70 parts? If you find some and want to pass them along, let me know. I have a set of the blue Maier fenders and they just aren't the right shade of blue.

Hi Pete. I strolled over to my neighbors Sunday and asked if I could snap a few pics of his trike. He gave it to his grandson Evan ( really neat 12 year old ). I have watched Evan grow up riding "gramps" trike so I thought it was just the greatest thing to happen.
Anyway ,,, Gary said he thought the trike was due for new rings and just a genral going thru this winter and asked if I'd do the work - Heck yeah !
Gary lives right next door to me and he has strolled into my garage on many a time to see what I was tinkering with ,,, we have known each other since 75.
So it is gonna be awhile till I get those pics but they will be forthcoming a little later into winter ( in my garage ).
