If it's a 87 Honda ATC 50 please tell him i will buy his 87 Honda ATC 500R... There is no such thing as a production Honda ATC 50. Honda did have prototypes and pre-production units but the 50 never went into full production. in 87 Honda stopped producing its high performance and or/ new models planned for 87 release ( 500R, 350X, 250R, 200R, 50,) .
just think what might have been :( :( :( . there have been rumers of some of the 50's getting bought buy Honda employes and showing up but, personally i have never seen one. if it is a true Honda ATC 50 (not hand made) its worth some serious money.

who said it had to be a honda. Did suzuki make the alt 50 in 1987. ?

[MR ATC]

when the term "ATC" is used its in referance to a Honda if used correctly since ATC is a Honda registerd trademark. if it was a suzuki then it would be proper to use ALT 50...

[ATC crazy]

Ohhhhh....BURNED :D

[Kilborg]

Right--All terrain cycle was a Honda trademark for the duration of the sport.

The ATC50 was a prototype, which much like the atc500r, was dropped in '87 in favor of quad production.

HMMMMMMMMMMMM :rolleyes:

[ATC crazy]

HMMMMMMMM yes...But thats not an ATC50... ;)

[bentwrench]

I know what it is I was reffering to the alt50 that wanta250R was talkin' about. :D

[wanta250r]

A lot of people now are using ATC to describe any threewheeler thats why I said it didn't have to be a honda. ?

[MR ATC]

hmmm...Yamaha ATC 250TRI-Z, Kawasaki ATC Tecate 250, nope just dose not sound right i don't know these" lots" of people

ATC=Honda
TRI=Yamaha
KLT=Kawasaki
ALT=Suzuki
ATV= any motorized balloon tired personal machine, 2,3,4,5,6,or 8 wheels

and for the record there was not a Suzuki ALT 50 offered in 87 to the best of my knowlege

[wanta250r]

someone's trying to be an a$$hole again -D

[J.D.]

No, nobody is trying to be an asshole, just trying to get the facts RIGHT.

LISTEN I know only honda used the ATC word. I guess they only say this where I live. Like when I tell someone I have a 3wheeler. They might say- what kind of atc do you have or something. Maybe because there are a lot more honda's than any other brand that they have come to calling everything atc's . I am not saying that they call suzuki's atc 50's or atc tri-z 250 . do you guys understand now. x

one of my friends said when he was little his dad bought him a atc 50. i guess it mustv been a prototype? he also said he drove a highoutput prototype, like a 600 or somehtin like that he said. mabey he meant the 500r. :?

I see what you're sayin' man. We sometimes interchange 3 wheeler and ATC around here too. Halifax PA style. (20 mi. north of Harrisburg.) It's quicker to say and sounds better. Although I reconize it isn't technically correct. Then again, I only know of 2 non-honda trikes around here, this kids 200 Yamaha and my KLT110. The rest of the known fleet is 2 250SXs (yeah, one is mine) and the imfamous 250R owned by Dave Borden.

they put it on the description so when someone like me or you types in ATC it brings it up, because alot of people dont know about the suzuki's being ALT's....pretty much allows more people to view their item...thats what i gather out of it anyway. now about the 87.... i havent the slightest clue!
