expand your territory! my area isnt very good for finding trikes so If i see something I really like I have to drive at least four hours one way most of the time! Hold of on buying that other stuff, something will come your way!

Thats like blowing money on a hooker... Take one of your old trikes for a rip to get the itch to settle a little, and wait for the good one to come along...
No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

Make your BR into one of them giant 'big camo' ones like we have on the forums. I plan to do something similar to mine.

At least its a Honda and not some chinese crap... I love rippin my kids xr50 around... Careful though, those little bikes bite! You start to feel invinsable, and they will get ya!

Catch me if you can
Trike purchases are almost never for "bragging rights", it is merely a curse placed upon us by the big guy in the sky (or Honda)
Who doesn't want spares and ones your friends can ride. BUT, I hate explaining to them that if they ruin a discontinued part, it may end the friendship when they realize how valuable they actually are!
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

too late. it already bit me. was leaned over, cruising at a good pace, when my buddy on my R came outta nowhere. i used front brake instead of back (i know, i know) and layed it down in the dirt. the bike and i are fine, just sucks cause i been workin like a mule in the sun for the last 2 weeks and got burnt on wednesday. the sunburn got shredded. but i got right up and rode the rest of the day. a very real reminder at just how ignorant it is to say that trikes are more dangerous than other machines. i will let people ride my trikes, but cant let them ride that bike.Originally Posted by Thorpe

I was doing wheelies on my kids and brought it over backward, and the 50 landed on my ankle.. Sprained the crap out of it, whole foot turned purple... Limped around for 3 weeks. My trikes never did that to me... Put 300 ice screws in the 50 this winter a tore the crap out of the frozen pond behind my house... Things are fun!

The day begins with 3WW
We bought an 01 XR50R for $200, and had a blast on it. As well as a lot of crashes jumping it off of anything we could find. Found a guy on craigslist wanting to trade an lt80 quad for an xr50 so we traded it off ofr his lt80. Here is a picture of it.
and what we traded it for.
Rides:
1986 ATC250R (sectional pipe and Klemm Research silencer)
1986 ATC250R (Desert Bike, WAX-ON seat, Dual Cibie lights, Steering Stabilizer)
1979 ATC110 (Bandito frame and forks, Turbo wheels, disc braked)
1982 ATC70 (Lifan manual 125)
1987 LT80 (piped, widened)
