 Posted: Mon Mar 03, 2008 9:47 am Post subject: My Trike Restoration, done (almost) |
  |
|
OK, so I bought this atc200es about 6 weeks ago. My good friend Gary offered to get it going for me as he is a real mechanical wiz (he builds drag car engines). After pulling it down, the wiring had been severly tampered with, the pull start was rooted, the handle bars bent and worst of all the frame was badly rusted. So after picking up a donor trike (atc200es 85) it was missing the wheels,tank and seat, he started making up a good bike out of the 2. So now its done and the only thing now needed is a tube for the rear tyre, a battery and a rear tailight lens. Took it out yesterday and I couldnt believe how well it went! I also now have a heap of spares including a motor and a diff!

Well I got the tyre fixed (just wasnt seated properly), picked up a battery today and even got an off road lic. for it!I just need a tailight lens and shes done!
I know I didnt go the whole hog and powder coat and replace everything, but shes in good original condition and its going to be ridden a lot, so I rebuilt it accordingly |
