well, I took a trailer load of trikes to a local antique show(mainly for
snowmobiles] this weekend. The guys that put on the show are great guys and they asked me if I would bring some of my trikes over for display so I said why not. Had a great time, mostly snowmobiles, some mini bikes and one other 1970 ATC 90" Summer Yellow " That one was all restored and done real nice, I got a few pics of mine and the 1985 Polaris Scrambler that the dealership has in there showroom{all restored}then the camera's battery went dead{ should of charged it the night before}. Had alot of people ask about the Tiger like "who made it? and how "many did they produce? and also had a few people say" those were dangerous and don't corner worth a darn" but , it was a fun time.

P.S. Sorry about the pics, cheap camera so the never come out very clear.

Hey Howdy, heres you Scrambler.

Which one? lol I got lucky and have located a couple parts that may just be enough to get all 3 going. I will still need more parts, but right now I'm happy!!

Great shots..... I'm glad the public had the chance to appreciate some of those machines you have. Your collection appears very similar to mine :beer

I just can't stand public incompetance.... When someone says that to me about my machines, I always reply with "Oh, so your a victim of that foolish CPSC-driven 20/20 propoganda also huh?" Idiots......

BTW- Nice collection! :)

I guess these people denounce bicycles too as kids do fall off of them too. It's really quite simple. They do have some unique nuances, so adapt to them. Learn to ride the machine properly and there won't be a problem.

I haven't seen a 4wheeler yet that could out manuver a 3wheeler or similar size.
3wheelers aren't dangerous, bad drivers are dangerous.
As much as I dont like Polaris, that is a sweet looking machine.
Thats all I have to say about that.
And very nice collection
