Well, i got it ! [ ATC 200E -84 ]

**ATC_Sweden** · 11-09-2009, 05:25 PM

I posted my first thread about a week ago, asking some questions about a Honda.. Well i went over there tonight and bought it from the old man for $350.
Obiviously it is in need of "some" restoration.

And since i am new to the ATC world i am grateful for any tips you guys got concering where to start etc.
Gotta hit the bed soon, almost midnight here in Sweden, work all day tomorrow =)
Took some photos tonight when i got it home, enjoy..
I'll drop by tomorrow when i get home..

looks like a really nice original machine, and wow how are those tires holding air?

**ATC_Sweden** · 11-09-2009, 05:46 PM

Haha, the right one is not holding for long..Pumped it up and it just started leeking all over.. First on the list is to check the condition of the engine, tires come way down at the moment

Nice!

That would be a 200es here in the states right? 200e was only 82-83 here.

I've heard of this before here on 3WW. There was an '84 200e made that was the same as the 82-83 200e over here (chain drive, hi/lo, no reverse), but it wasn't sold around here.

Congrats on getting it.

sweet find man! i wonder how rare they are over seas? Never seen a chain 84, I have the 83, essentially the same machine except you have the 84 graffix. Nice speedo assembly too. thats a plus, and is that a horn?? Looks like it just needs some serious love!!. I would start by breaking it down, probably needs all new bearings, and brakes, clean and grease all pivot points. Obviously new rubber. As for the motor, judging by the looks of it, it is probably fairly low hour, and might not need much. does it turn over with the recoil starter? Carb needs cleaning or rebuild im sure. Check the tank for rust. It is really an easy machine to work on. Monroe Mike here on the boards is an excellent manual source, and is usually right there to offer it. Makes things much smoother when you know what your looking at!! Good luck with it, and keep us posted.

Nice find! Doesn't look all too bad. Those first 3 photos look amazing, not sure if it's your camera or the lighting(no I'm not making fun of your drop light lighting technique), but I love them!!!!!!!!! I also really dig your under house lighting looks cool. The photos are almost brochure like.

Just noticed the coil strapped to the frame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**aldochina** · 11-10-2009, 01:08 AM

good eye racerx, that thing is HUGE!!

**dirt_19** · 11-10-2009, 02:42 AM

the pic's do look amazing

**Kwattro** · 11-10-2009, 03:07 AM

What camera are you using? And nice new toy too

**atctim** · 11-10-2009, 11:17 AM

Nice trike - good luck with it. Those are the original tires from 1984 on the back - They are great machines. If you have questions - we can help you here.

Welcome to 3WW~!

**cox** · 11-10-2009, 11:36 AM

ya man thats a good camera, or the lighting makes it look really cool. Nice machine. Lol at the tires. Wish i had a speedo, for some reason......

**ATC_Sweden** · 11-10-2009, 02:00 PM

Hey !

First off, thank you for the positive comments =)
The camera that i use is a Canon Powershot G7.

Not really sure what you mean when you write "coil" though =/

When i got home from work today me and my buddy carried "the corpse" down in the basement, i'm gonna let it defrost for a while, then i will go down and start pulling it apart.
Stopped by the Honda shop when i was going home to check the price on new tires, two new tires cost as much as i bought the ATC for =)

aldochina : Regarding how rare they are overseas, well they are not something you see everyday here in Sweden. The 350X i really rare, my brother has one though. I bet you guys allready have seen this video ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqERKcDkYNI

That's him, filmed that back in 2004..A nice splash, but in the end, fail

Well, gonna go down in the basement now and figure out where to start =)
Thanks for the support so far, questions will pop up

I think he means the massive car type ignition coil that is fixed to the downtube on the frame.
