Newbie saying "Hello" and Asking a Question

[kevins750]

Hello All, I am new on here, and wanted to ask a question....I have recently got back into ATC's because of my kids...I have many motorcycles, and my kids decided that atc's and quads are cooler than 2 wheels....I just bought a yamaha 125 2 stroke TY125 I think....Anyway I would like to know if I can get aluminum wheels for it still....I got my first ATC 90 in 1977 when I was 10 and destroyed that thing, and then moved to 2 wheels, but always liked the ease of riding 3 wheelers...Anyhow thanks for any help, and I will be hanging around here getting educated by you all...kevin

welcome to the board kevin. not sure where you can get some rims but, you could put a wanted post in the classifieds section of the site and maybe someone will have a set

The YT125 rims are 3/100 bolt pattern and both ITP and Douglas make rims for it. Several other makes and models with 3 lug rims use the same 3/100 bolt pattern inlcuding several Hondas and ALT125 Suzuki.
As for the "ease" of riding 3 wheelers, I dont think youll find anything easy about the YT125! The little ones with super short wheelbase with no suspension are the most difficult to ride and easiest to dump!

A friend who restores atc's gave me a set of aluminum rims...He said they were off a Honda....They are 3 hole also, but I had to drill the holes larger (10mm) from the smaller original holes...And the 125 probably isn't going to be the easiest to ride for the kids, so I plan on picking up a trx125 and 185 this weekend also....Does anyone know if they made expansion chamber for the yamaha? thanks for all the help..kevin
