What made you start riding atc's?

[3WheelsOva4]

I got a Honda 110 when I was about 8 and I have been riding them ever since.

My dad bought a beat up 1975 honda atc 90 in 1977, I was 15. I rode it until I went into the navy in 1980. I hadn't ridden 3 wheelers until a few years ago when someone I knew gave me a basket case klt110 and I got into it again, bigger than ever. Now I'm playing with the trikes I always wanted when I was younger. I like the crazy old school stuff. Suspension 70s', Suspension 185s' and I have most of the parts for a rd350 powered trike. I'm building a 180cc atc110 right now.

My grandfather owned a honda dealership. Been riding since I was 5. Mom and Dad both worked at the dealership and I spent my entire childhood test riding these things for the mechanics in the shop.

I started when I was 12 on my friends 1982 200E. This thing was a rough peice of work, but it ran good. Then I got my 1982 185S from my biology teacher for 200$. From that day I have been riding 3wheelers.

tf 04.i had a warrior,and spent alot of time on my uncle derricks tri z at haspin.i had so much fun we sold the warrior so i could buy a 250r.been hooked since.

I started a couple of years ago. It was the cheap price that got me on my first one. I still have it is a 185s with the fromt after market front suspension. The thing hauled but. I think it must have been bored or the sprocket changed. I still have and plan on redoing it some time. Then the 125m got my hooked cause it floated. I lived in the swamps so that was great. Since them I have got to many to list & have also got a descent size atc junkyard.

I'm new here and think this is an cool forum.

I was about 10 me and my dad were driving and saw a 80 185 for sale. He bought it and it was hella fun. Been riding ever since. Now have a couple dirt bikes and quads. I also have a Tri-z. 185 is long gone, wish I still had it.

Me and my brother were forbidden by mom from anything with a motor growing up. I bought my 1st quad at the age of 24, and had never ridden an ATC till I bought my 84 200S in Nov 2002, loved it, and have been HOOKED ever since. I can't wait to piece my 2 parts ATC's into a good 200M!!! My best friend was raised with trikes (110's and 125's) and he can not understand why I would rather ride my ATC's than quads. I guess alot of it is nostalgia and pride. Riding with friends that have new quads, and I'm on something that's 20+ years old just feels good. Since 02 been trying to find a sport trike that rips, and thanks to 3leggeddog, I found it!

LONG LIVE TRIKE LOVERS!!!!

I got my 200x and a Yamaha YTM200 two years ago from a co-worker. They had been sitting in her yard for several years. I agreed to mow her lawn all last summer for them. I wanted to see if I like ATV riding before I invested a bunch of money into the sport. I gave the Yamaha to a friend who was going to get it running and ride with me. Needless to say he was too busy with school and his new wife to go riding last year. Maybe this year he'll have time. Three weeks ago I bought a new Rancher. Now my wife and son go riding with me. Later this tear we are planning on buying another Rancher or Recon.

Rode my friends 90 or 110 (cant remember exactly, this was 1976 and I was 9) at his grandma's farm. Thought it was the coolest thing ever. Another friend had 2 1973 ATC70's, one stock, one bored out. I sold my HO scale train and bought the stocker (w/ a little help from mom & dad). Went to a cycle shop, got a used Bell helmet (open face) pair of DG wet weather riding gloves and Scott goggles and I was set.
