    new purchase

    Never had a three wheeler before, just dirt bikes and quads. Picked this up, not sure what year. ATC 70 is stamped on the front of the frame. Rigged up a temp gas can while waiting for the previous owner to find the original gas tank. She smokes quite a bit on startup but otherwise runs well. Having trouble getting it to idle because the throttle cable is sticky. Also, the right rear tire is off the bead at the moment. Anybody know what year/configuration this thing is?

    nice litle bike you got there cant tell you exact year, but in 84 or 85 they went to 4 spd's so that should narrow it down for you,

    if it needs a rebuilt look into big bore kits, there cheap and come with everything, whole topend carb cam,intake.....

    to 3ww! it looks like a 1970's model to me, because it has the 1970's seat and rear fenders. try looking around here: http://www.3wheelerworldforums.com/Brochures/ATCsite/

    It is either a 1973 or a 1974, I can't tell without the tank (decals). The way the rear fenders bolt on says it's one of those years.
