i dont have any pics yet, but when i go back i will bring my cam with me. anyways, me and my brother went to look for some performance parts for his quadracer and we went to this palce up where we grew up in the town of florida here in new york. the guy does mainly snowmobile repairs and works on atvs now and again. he sells some cool aftermarket parts and stuff too for atv's. so we pull in to the driveway, and the place closed a half an hour before we got there, really bummed. anyways, when we pulled in there was this honda atc200 sitting under an awning, pretty beat up, had a crack i the rear fender, no seat cover, tires were dry rotted and flat, blah blah blah. so me and my bro, got out of the car anyways to take a look at the trike, and on the side of the building i saw some more red fenders so i mosied on over around the corner, and to my suprise there was two more atc200's , nice shape. an 85 r with no rear shock on it, 2 yamaha 225dx or dr's, and a few frames and stuff just sitting there, getting rained on. i saw a fenced in area behind the place so i walked over a peeked thru the fence, and my eyes got about the size of half dollars, this guys has a crap load of beat up hondas and yamaha trikes sitting there, and i even saw a few tecates from what i could see thru the fence. so i am going up there this week during business hours, and i will bring my camera to snap a bunch of pics for you guys. finally, i found an atv boneyard close to me. i am psyched.:w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :Bounce :Bounce

Yea, hopefully you will be able to check it out up close, I found a great place last weekend in PA, trikes and trikes and trikes, even an 87 tecate, odyssey, yamaha's, Hondas. Everything I could have ever dreamed about and the guy wouldnt let us look around, he ran a cycle shop and had plans of fixing most of them up with parts from others so he didnt want to really sell anything, even had a mint condition alt50 sitting there. Probably 50-75 trikes there but I could get anything :cry: :crazy: :( :twisted:

I hear ya... Talk about getting the heart pumping... I thought I was going to drop dead when I found the one we visited last month... lol to much fun when you have lots to look at.... I came away pretty lucky, since I had over $1200 bucks in my pocket to buy a 86R that ended up being a hunk of junk... I found a couple cool items...

Hey, I was looking at your location of saratoga, and Im wondering if I might have gone to the same bone yard a few weeks ago. Its about a half hour from Cobleskill, and the guy had a ton of stuff. Not sure if its the same one though beacause I didnt see any tecates. He had a ton of stuff in barns and outside. I got some cool hondaline parts for my 250R, and there are a few things I plan on going back for too. Also, if anyone knows anything about the trike with the gray plastic let me know. This place was awesome, and I got a lot more pics if anyone wants them. Anyways, heres the pics, let me know if its the same place

yea sure ....

Don't tell Mike, the guy will buy the whole place out ! :lol:

I was thinking of having a look myself though, pretty hard to resist and I like digging for parts, there could be a few hidden :naughty: treasures.

Chevy, I think the grey plastic one may be a Honda 200 series and that plastic is just setting on there .

How is the owner, a nice guy that lets you snoop all day ? How old is he ?

You have a lot more pic's you say, can we see them all ?

New Berlin is 60 miles from there, I'm not from there but go to the Unadilla MX race which is close by, is it in that direction ?

Can you pinpoint exactly where this place is on here ?

Maybe a few of us could meet on a Saturday ?

Is anyone going to get a phone number of this place. There is a bone yard about 25 minutes from me with a sh*t ton of trike stuff. Frames all over the place. Its called Caldwells motor toys. They try to rape you on things but you have to wheel and deal with him.

Do you have the name of the place and a phone number. I am in Alpena and don't want to go there for nothing . I go to Flint often and could make a detour by there if there was something they had that I needed. Do you know who posted the pics of it?

Hey huffa, no problem man. Its actually outside of cobleskill in a town called central bridge (you can see it on the map there), its probably about 15-20 minutes from Cobleskill. I've been there 3 times now, and it sounds like he is trying to get rid of all his trike stuff, or at least everything not sporty like 200x, 250R, 350X, etc. He is a pretty cool dude, one of those guys that the more you talk to him about stuff and the more he starts to realize your really interested in trikes, the price starts to drop :) I got a Hondaline fairing in decent shape, a Hondaline fender brace for 250R, grab bar and an ATC 90 tail light for $30 bucks at the end of the day, so yeah he can be pretty cool.

he's got one big barn with a few rooms, one room has about 4-5 atc 70's (was a blue one, but I missed that one by about a week :( ), an attic FULL of plastic, a bunch of sheds with trikes, and all the ones outside you can see in the pics. I'll look for his number and I'll post it on here when I find it, let me know if your thinkin about heading out I might be interested in making another trip.

Heres some pics from over a year ago, he doesnt have quite as much stuff anymore

those are some of the best ones I got then, but keep in mind he gets them and sells them each week so there might be more stuff, I havent been there in a few months.

wow talk about old threads....lol. hahah yut thats the same placce i go to chevy...doug is his name. doug bull, and he calls his business bike trikes and quads. he hasnt been doing alot really lately, his grandson is taking a more active roll in the business cuz dougs wife is kinda sick, i think cancer, but he is still around. i shoot the bull with him everytime i go up there. lots of good frames and odds and ends there. havent been up ther ein a few months but have had the itching to go up. maybe i will do just that. hes actually in sloansville. about 15 minute drive outside fonda, or cobleskill/ central bridge area.

Chevy200s
10-29-2007, 03:51 PM
Yup, thats him Doug Bull. I didnt know about his wife, that sucks. he and his grandson are really cool to talk to, that kid is getting really good at racing too, I've seen some pics of him taking 200x's off of some pretty big jumps and I guess he does really well racing with his yfz 450. Anyways, yeah I've noticed in just the 3 times I've been there that each time there are less trikes, kinda sad. My buddy and I are actually planning on going out there soon to pick up a certain trike that will be perfect for a crazy project that I honestly havent seen done here yet, so if anyways interested in going let me know if you want to meet up.
