couldnt help myself when this came up on ebay (some might have seen it).
has been sitting since 1993, and b4 that i believe it was a one owner who used it for golf which is the same thing i will be doing with it.
have had a fiddle and it goes pretty well. doesnt want to idle and dies when idling and the throttle is put to the stop qucikly, so a carb rebulid kit will be on its way soon.
is fairly original though its missing the rear grab rail, and the bars are massive lol.
im pretty sure the tyres are orig too, they are a little cracked but hold air.
serviced it and re glued the air filter housing to carb boot as per usual atc70.
its a 1/78 model which is the same month/year i was born which is kinda cool.
prob wont do too much to it, prob re paint the tank and thats about it.
whats interesting is it came with genuine honda mudguards (2 left and 1 right brand new) the guy had fitted them to sell it but ive taken them off as i dont wasnt to risk tearing them. they were bought new in 1992 from honda but were never fitted.
anyway heres the pics.
as i got it

and ready for golf

I bought a super rare 11/86 build ATC70 golf trike a while ago. The only thing wrong is there is a line of surface rust across the top of the tank from the sweaty old codgers leg when he rode side saddle all the time.
