P-3 project

[jeswinehart]

Let the luvin begin !
Not really expecting anything major with this P-3,,,, starter replacement, broken motor mounts,,, missing nuts + bolts,,, basterDized wiring,,,,
Ain't in much of a hurry for it,,,, just one of those projects to kill the in between "other things" boredom.

Nice! How many of those you have now? I had,no idea Polaris made a,3 wheeler till I met yours. Sweet ride. Good luck with the "rebuild!"

Do you own a fork lift? :lol:

Nice score.

He uses a come a long and a strap to get them up there last time I saw anyhow. Works prety good I must say.

[jeswinehart]

Oh this is the only one I Own 90nut, buy/sell,,,, we all know what that's about don't we :)
Yes, lifting strap around foot pegs and a rope to fine tune the balance for up/down,,, much easier for me to work barrel height then on the floor. 4x4 board across 2 of the rafters provides a lifting point.
Upon closer inspection all I found was pleasant surprises. New drive belt, wiring is all out of any type of loom but basically intact and this trike has the best biggest blue spark I have ever had on anything !
Got some parts coming to install next week end,,,,

[jeswinehart]

Runs, stops, idles, reverses, ,,,, all darn well :)
I'll deal with getting lights working lator,,,,, maybe.
Gonna call my brother lator tonight and see if he wants a freebie :naughty:

If they run anything like the 250cc quads, it runs pretty good.

You are one heck of a nice brother, John. Funny thing, my Polaris was given to me for free...... From my brother! Looks great, see you in 5 weeks.

[dirtwheels]

Nice job. Looks like it's going to make a nice rider if you give it to your brother.

[unclecracker]

Looks great John. If you do decide to sell off a P3 sometime let me know. One bike I've never owned and wouldn't mind have sitting around especially for a friend to ride since there's no shifting...

[jeswinehart]

After leaving trikefest 2016 I swung by my brothers house to drop off the Polaris trike I gave to him.
He is one HAPPY guy.
Thanks goes out to Howdy for dialing it in for me. Run okay before,,,, runs perfect now.

[big specht]

Lol that's good to see. Now you guys can go riding

[jeswinehart]

Come to find the crank case seals was on their way out so I went down and got it to do the replacement in my garage (brother is more mechanical then me but has a "man cave garage" ~ I'm better set up to work on stuff) .
Installed the seals and all is well now,,, again. Delivered it back to him and low and behold he bought a large storage shed so he'd have a decent place to store it,,,,, along with his other stuff from a overfilled small storage shed.
I said, dam brother this free trike cost you a bundle ! His reply,,,, no problem,,, worth every penny brother :)

[coolpool]

Nice work John keeping it alive! That's a darn nice shed if I ever did see one!
