Ok, so that was one of the stranger thread openers...you got us hanging in the edge of our seats.

Is there a back story here?

Haha. I got all excited to hear a story about a 200s rolling into your bedroom at night flashing its lights or something.

I just discovered last week that the lights on my YTM-225DX are now working for the first time in 1½ year... And I didn't repair anything, i thought my lightning coil was shot, but it seems now that it repaired itself...

You probably had something in the switch keeping it from making contact work loose from vibration.

Dustrunner has a 87 Big Red that has maimed him,and I see he's had it for sale on CL. My guess is the story continues... Can't wait to hear what it's done now. I aint touching it !!!

I had a 185s years ago that truly had a personality of its own but I wouldn't say it was haunted. lol..

I also am waiting to hear the rest of this story.

Ive got a 200m that the shifter will randomly stick up or down when shifting and it falls into nuetral and wont come back causing it to roll out of control. The weirdest part is that whenever i hook the breaks up i always get into a wreck that same day and the breaks are always broke after the crash its happend twice. It also likes to randomly jar the bars out of your hands if you hit bumps a certain way novmatter what stuff i change out on the front end its always does it. Not really sure whats otg with the bike but its been named old ron since ive got it and it likes to do what it wants. haha

Also some days this one tire will go flat completely and other times it will stay inflated for weeks.

Sometimes...my bike starts. THEN, sometimes it wont start at all!
Then i move on to my next trike and it gets jealous and will run after sitting for a few weeks.

If you answered my post, I have no switch on the 3-wheeler. Just a tether kill swith to stop it.

ok, when i got the es it was rolled over on the pavement and the front rack was sawed off... the rest of the bike was in nice shape.... i had a bad experience on it and ended up in er for a long time.... next the parking brake jumped off and it rolled into a tree braking the front fender...so i buy a nice oem fender and beautifull rack... i been cleaning up the yard and got it out and had my tailer hooked 2 it and parked it for the nite = in the am i noticed it jumped outta park again and crashed into my garage door..... so im having a scratch and dent sale today....

if its that rare, fix it the right way the first time. because from what i gathered from the rest of your responses, it kind of sounds like your rigging it just enough to get you by...

Guys,Dustrunner has left out quite a bit here. This 87 ES of his was flipped down the road before he got it if I remember right. Then, He was riding it up a hill that he had climbed a 100 times before I think? And it threw him off. Freak accident that happens to all of us. What he left out is, it broke his back and there is no reason he's still walking or breathing. And now after he's fixed it up,it's taken off twice on it's own. Parking brake groove not what it used to be ?? Could be. BUT,, this bike has a very real past with a long trail of a lot of money and pain and suffering behind it ! Anyhow,if anyone wants a good running 1987 ATC 250ES for $1200,get ahold of him and report back after a year lol !
