Sometimes when i shut it off, the gas starts pouring out the bowl overflow, i think my float needle is sticking, gonna have to get a carb kit. other than that it works pretty deadly. I'm running a 36tooth black-alloy rear sprocket. it's really light. That supertrapp doesn't really fit right. it's really low. it works good though, sounds nice and beefy. My fork boots are off of Rancho automotive shocks. they fit really nice. lol
so what do you all think? does she look nice?

I put my 200x fender on and it sits crooked, because of a crack on the right, I packing taped my 185 headlight into the 200x headlight bracket, just so i could drive it. I'm looking into getting another headlight now. I also have a full rear brake system. I just don't know how to rig up the pedal.
HOWDY!!!!!! i think u mentioned before something about rigging up a paddle or something. I dunno. any pics anyone? anyone else do it? blazerone? did u rig trailprotrailpro's up?
I'll have to get so more pics, I haven't had time to get any.

doesnt it mount up? id cut off like an inch from the pedal part then extend it and weld it back on or is it to close to the engine?

there's none on the frame
the 200x engine has the mount on the side of it

Here's some more pics, i got her a little dirty, and she's a little iced up. the snow up here is fun!
The front fender sits cockeyed because of a fair sized break on the side of it. She's obviously not 100% yet, but I'm working on it! :beer

Caution
Do not "POP WHEELIES" and run for any distance with the ATC. The oil capacity is relatively small and the oil will drain out of the oil pump area thus causing loss of oil pressure, resulting in costly engine damage -CLYMER
hahaha i noticed that in my Clymer manual, then if you look at the cover the front wheel is not on the ground, kind of contridicting.
o ya, by the way, that a pretty sweet trike, i like the packing tape on the headlight, it gives it a nice custom feel. :cool:

Hey, the packing tape is temporary. lol. I just wanted to be able to ride it! I had nothing else, so I made do with what I had.
Oh, and that axle- I bought it from someone on here, they said it was stock, but i have a stock axle (with stripped splines) and the one on the bike is 4 inches wider than my bad one. so uh....I'm pretty sure it's not stock! and those tires are really narrow! I think they're 350x rims, they're 9 inchers

i sold you that axel. i thought it was stock. anyways you got a good deal. the only reason i thought it was stock is because the other one i have is longer. enjoy it and if you need other parts let me know.

that's a 200x shock, I stripped, and primered the spring, and was too lazy to paint it.
and yeah, thanks Joe, it was a good deal. thanks man.
