It's been a couple years since I've been around, after I sold my ATC185S and the ATC200, I've been into street bikes. Now I've left them behind and about to get back into 3wheelers. :cool: A friend has a Yammie 225 with a bad motor, and a good motor on the side that I can get pretty cheap. I'm also thinking of trading my jetski and my Heald Super Bronc for another Honda ATC.
I'll be around fellers. :beer

This thing ain't bad but it lost a wheel somewhere and it doesn't do deep water too well. :naughty:

Yep. That's an ad for the first generation VT8 8hp. Mine is from the mid 80s. Almost mint condition. I had to rebuild the jackshaft and the motor doesn't want to idle on it's own. But it will pull my extended cab GMC uphill without a burp. Major low end pulling power. But the CVT primary slips when wet.

Who'd have thought it? I'm getting both my old 185S and the ATC200 back by the middle of next week. :beer

I've missed them ever since I sold them. Both need to be gone through as they sat up for a while. Pull the carb down clean it out and back in business. I think I missed the 200 the most even though it gave me acute tendonitis in the right elbow. I guess I need to get the compression release to work properly. LOL
Looks like "Ol' Smokey" and "Brutus" are coming home this weekend.

Got the '83 ATC185S back today. Looks rough but looked rough 3 years ago too.
I need to clean the carb and get a new plug first then look into exhaust. The ITP Mudlites I put on still look good but the front tire is trash. I'm going to rob the wheel/tire off of the 110 parts rig and I'll get pics up soon.

I should have the '83 ATC200 back early next week. :D

One down, one to go.
All I really want is another front fender for the 185S
