I have not been on here lately and was wondering if you hit mother load or what, if you did can you post some pictures.

Thanks, Alex

Yeah, He teased us and left us hanging. I'm stalled on the yt175 right now. I haven't been up to Pa in 2 months or so, and I have a couple pieces that need rebuilt and bored out. We have been working on the great gazoos trike lately. His clutch has been giving me fits, but I think I may have a handle on it. Brian will probably be needing a new piston and rings himself. Maybe the Tecate kid will elaborate on his latest finds.

Thats the story of my life! LOL. I did email Pat some new pics. I also sent a neat sticker. I am just waiting on a carb and mine is a runner! As far as the score, Yes it is going to happen, when I dont know, I dont want to keep bugging the guy and make him mad. He is in the process of getting married. Poor guy.

**Vealmonkey** · 05-26-2009, 10:26 PM

Give me his email address and I'll gladly bug him! It isn't like I have never annoyed anyone on here ever before. I don't always mean to, I just get caught up in things sometimes. I wish I had the ebay pics of the next to last Pro Tec kit I bought. That guy had the full size sticker on his rear fenders. Man I can't believe I lost those pictures. I tried to get him to remove the sticker with a hair drier or heat gun. I even tried to buy the fenders just to get the sticker. I do have to get those pictures from my email to my pictures section so I can get them posted up. It takes a little bit though and I've been lazy. Sorry.

UPDATE!

Well kids I've had a little time to work on my tri-moto. Currently we are fully suspended, put some awesome 18" golf kart tires on the back, a 20" lawn tire on the front, and I'm sitting here looking at a pk exhaust for a 175 in my room. I'm trying to decide if the 175 exhaust will hurt the 125. I also have a new UNI filter clamp on now. This little thing loves to walk sideways in the grass and dirt. I really think I need some wheel spacers or a wider axle now. I've had the rims flipped before but it just wasn't enough Had to flip em back to fit it in the shed.

Currently I'm still lacking brakes but hopefully I'll have that resolved soon enough.

Anyone have a yamaha blaster axle I could borrow to experiment with?

Lou, that is way nicer than it was the last time I saw it. Looking good man. You really need to just bite the bullett and go 175. Do it Lou, just dooo-ooo it. LOL I don't know if the PK pipe would hurt it or not. We need to get you an it 175 cylinder and piston. At least one of us has a runner. Well, Brians runs, but it does sound a little loose in the cylinder area, and that clutch is a whole nother matter. We need to get Brians trike running. I can't do anythng with mine until I get to PA. We have to get your skidplate on there too. Anything else that we're forgetting, probably.

**Louis Mielke** · 06-03-2009, 09:12 PM

Yeah, I definitely need to go 175 but I'm having a little GititRagg put on that cylinder so it's gonna be a bit before we're at 175. Pat I have two more of those Golf Kart tires. You want them?

**Vealmonkey** · 06-03-2009, 10:57 PM

Like I could say no. I might not run for a couple years, but it will look good sitting there. LOL

**lookinforone** · 06-03-2009, 11:10 PM

loving the progress.
mostly posting to follow the thread.

**old-yellow** · 06-07-2009, 08:51 PM

Veal,

I dont know if you found the picture of the pro tec sticker yet but here's one I
have.

**bandito90** · 06-08-2009, 12:32 AM

Lou,The trikes looking good!

**Vealmonkey** · 06-08-2009, 01:14 AM

Okay, I decided to spend some time and transfer and resize the pics that the tecate kid sent me of his progress. Don't be upset if these pictures follow any particular order. It seems that once they get into files that they have a mind of their own. Sorry about being so late with getting these pictures up, I seem to be behind on everything lately.

**Vealmonkey** · 06-08-2009, 01:16 AM

Here are some more pics from the tecate kid.

**Vealmonkey** · 06-08-2009, 01:17 AM

And here are the last of the tecate kids' pics. OOPS, don't mind the dare care from my trip to Conn to pick up a bike. I took the dare car pics for my codriver since he has a camaro and wanted the pics.
