    You are right, but i get more fun on it than on my 250ES, 250SX..... and do you want to know why?........... i am the only one around here .

    you said that it's ugly. OK, but don't forget that you are probably as ugly as the Sasquatch, and your mother loves you.. hihihi.

    I got over 15 ATC Honda in my garage but only one Commuter Sasquatch.

    Thumbs up I just bought a Sasquatch

    I just bought a Sasquatch 340 last week. It runs absolutely perfectly. I paid 250 bucks for it and it is in excellent shape. I took the governor spring off of it and it flies!

    Sasquatch 340

    Howdy,

    First ever forum for me. Question. Does anyone know where I can find manuals for my two Sasquatch 340's from communter industries I just bought yesterday? They run great, but one's carb, from the bowl under the carb, is leaking gas huge.

    Also does anyone know their tongue weight restrictions for towing? thanx in advance bunches!

    Bill

    I currently have a Granger Model that was given to me to restore for 3WW. This thing is Far from being done. I am in need of a final drive unit. I could get by with borrowing one and having the one gear/shaft duplicated. Once I get this I will put the rest of the restoration into high gear and get it rolling. I wished there was someone to provide the tranny or the gear / shaft for me to have it duplicated.

    Sasquatch

    Howdy can probably copy his manual if not maybe scan it? Im sure that manual is rare but it might be good for someone to copy it and post it here for future owners.
    Name Brand im liking the whole Alaskan Outback Sasquatch story. I would love to see a write up and pics of the process to get them trikes out of the big woods. Quite an adventure that would be. And a bitter better story than finding a trike in a barn.

    Theres a mint condition Sasquatch for sale in my city. The guy wants $1200 for it. Weird looking things for sure. Pretty sure they're only electric start as well.. no recoil.

    Early models had a flip down cover over the flywheel that gave you access to the starter drum. Wrap a rope around it a pull. Later models had an actual recoil backup. We own several of them.

    Here's a pic of one I just converted to a snomobile.
