Please do not post until this long post is over! This magazine is an 80 page load. It's going to take about an hour to post up completely. Then by all means let 'er rip, with questions & comments. This will be about a 6 hour time investment for each complete issue posted.
***PLEASE, everyone, lets all use the thumbs up or down rating system to the upper right to keep threads like this going. I don't want to waste my time on this project unless this is what people want to read. We should all rate thumbs up or down on each post and/or reply we read/view! Thanks and enjoy!***

Thanks so much!-Andy (BB)

[dcreel]

Thank you sooo much. Brings back memories. I had a subscription to 3wheeling 25 years ago. I wish someone could reprint all of their printed magazines.

Thanks again...

[TriMotoMan]

Thank you for uploading!

[longbedGTs]

Very nice quality, thanks for the pics! Id sure like to have that trailer on page 66. :TrikesOwn

[brapp]

awesome good readign thanks for the info/

[Saul]

Great job!!!

[aldochina]

really cool idea, I will read cover to cover, thanks buster!

[Hoosier_Daddy]

Wow! thanks for sharing this. It brings back a lot of memories. Jimmy White kicking everyone's butt.:twisted: $2.00 for a magaize. I remember the good ole days when magazines were $1.99- $2.00. Seeing all those adds for parts that are mere parts of our memories now. Thumbs up for you!

Those are some of the things on my mind as well. That magazine price would have been lower if I had a subscription back then, but I never had any trouble talking my grandmother into every issue of Dirt Wheels, 3&4 Wheel Action, and 3 Wheeling everytime a new one hit the stands(she loved that I read so much). Of course I had read almost the entire issue before we made it to the grocery store check-out line...lol.

I love the ads almost as much as the features.

[Enginerd]

Thanks for posting this scan! Great to relive those memories.

I especially liked the lead pic in the Marty Hart interview on page 48. The water cooled top-end on that 83/84 250R was incredible. There is also a small pic on page 41 that refers to the top-end too. Anyone have or have ever seen one in real life?

[bandito90]

I'm curious about that motor also.Still drooling over all the 90 parts though.

There is a guy selling an 83R here and over at airfoolers.com that has one all ready installed!!

[atcman77]

Great job on the scans Andy! I know it's rather time consuming to post articles like this but please keep them coming! Love reading those old magazines!! :w00t:

[Saul]

street legal first gen airfooler with tr41Lpr0s - *head explodes!*

[hadar]

Sweet, I think I have this one but still nice work.:beer

[big schott]

Great job Andy!!:beer I had some of those magazines back in the day and used to look at them all the time. I had a 83 110 (I have one now but not the same) it had the rear rack and the fairing on it.(I wish I had that fairing, I bet their were only a handfull of brackets made for the 110's) My friend Carl got the 125m (just like the one in the article) brand new, I can still remember how mad I was that he was faster than me.

Great memories:) ,,,, Wish I could relive them.


PS: I wish i had my 85 350X back then. I could have kicked the hell out of Carls 125M :lol: :lol: :lol: !

[Buster Brown]

Great job on the scans Andy! I know it's rather time consuming to post articles like this but please keep them coming! Love reading those old magazines!! :w00t:

Great, guys! Hearing that you all are enjoying this stuff makes the pains of posting it all, time well spent. :)

I must agree, that Marty Hart liquid '84 is cool as heck! By the way your posted signature '84 is very nice as well. Great job on that one! :cool:

[braunz200x]

time well spent. :)


x two :w00t:

[Taiser]

OMG this is sweet, I remember having that magazine, in fact I had most of them...until I moved into an apartment and had to "choose" what to keep. Unfortunetly my collection of "3wheeling" and "Dirt Wheels" were two huge boxes that had to go...I still kick myself for that...thanks for posting this! :D

[aaron7]

Wow, awesome upload!!

So many old skool parts... drool!!

BTW that truck body for the Odyssey is awesome. WANT!

You see the prices these go for on ebay?! Those old boxes of mag's coulda paid your rent for a few months!

My browser had trouble loading all the images even on my blazing fast connection here at work. Some came up red x's and I had to get the url and go right to Buster's photobucket account to save the image.

If I can, I'll try to post a new issue at the beginning of each month until I run out of magazines. That should be around........ 2025. Well......we'll see, I'll do my best. Feel free to download this stuff for your own collection and/ or archives. Not sure I know how rdlsz24 did that, but hey, more power to ya! Thanks!
I, probably like many of you, love the pictures from the glory years. They seem to bring back the most memories. I only read some of this stuff, if it's real important or pertains to something I'm working on, otherwise I read by the pictures. :lol: A true male! :beer

[Taiser]

I might have a copy or two left in the basement I'll look, I know I still have a very old magazine, don't remember the name, that had my 83 Yamaha tri-moto 200 test in it. I'll try and dig them up :D

[Buster Brown]

There is a guy selling an 83R here and over at airfoolers.com that has one all ready installed!!

Saul, your site is top notch looking and very nicely laid out! Great job. That '83 R w/ the liquid head is very cool! (pardon the pun) Though, not quite as trick as Marty Heart's Honda backed jug and head, that's still got to be a pretty rare aftermarket set up. Whosoever that is, thanks for sharing, and good luck with the sale!

[factoryX]

lol, I love the aftermarket truck body for the odysseys...

[toocheaptosmoke]

AWESOME! Thanks so much for doing this, loved reading that mag!! Just one question, I saved all the pics but it seems like p. 14 is missing, just wondering if the picture link was left out? :beer

[Kintore]

Great Read! funny you post that cause I was lookin for info on steerin stabilizers since im puttin an elka on mine. Thanks for the pages!

[Enginerd]

...By the way your posted signature '84 is very nice as well. Great job on that one! :cool:

Thanks for the compliment! :beer I am actually working on an Odyssey/ATC hybrid motor similar to what Daddio & 1upfornt are doing. :D

[KILLER]

Thanks for posting this scan! Great to relive those memories.

i went and picked one up yesterday .almost the same set up .:D theres pics on here allready . :beer nice job with the magizine scan . :beer wicked reading . thanks .

[Hoosier_Daddy]

For all it's worth, for those who are wondering about Marty Harts liquid cooled 250R, I remember very well that there were several companies selling aftermarket heads and cylinders for the older air cooled bikes to add performance. I remember how much of a big deal it was back then to even be able to get just a liquid cooled head, let alone a cylinder, for your air cooled bike. These aftermarket liquid cooled conversion kits were especially popular for Honda Odyssey's.

Link not working for me :( anybody else getting a 404 error...maybe the bandwidth is maxed out...cry

[WIkid500]

Very cool. The articles and looking at the ads and those prices just makes me want to go back in time for a bit. If you have more and time I know I would like to read more.

[Buster Brown]

AWESOME! Thanks so much for doing this, loved reading that mag!! Just one question, I saved all the pics but it seems like p. 14 is missing, just wondering if the picture link was left out? :beer

Here's the problem with page 14. The photobucket generated direct link includes the words "TRAIL PRO", so it comes up like this when posted:

http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp334/k10seibel/50c05trailprotrailpro9.jpg

The "TRAIL PRO" tag fouls the posted page from appearing. Sorry, I'm no computer whiz. I'm not aware of how to remedy this issue. The page contains only ads, so in haste, I just skipped it. It was a long night of posting! Here is the photobucket album. Buy the way, can anyone look through my entire album by going to this link, or does just one specific page come up?? I don't care if everything can be viewed, I guess. I'm just curious how it works when adding a link to my photobucket account. Everything in my album is "clean". No naughty stuff.:lol: :lol:

http://s425.photobucket.com/albums/pp334/k10seibel/?action=view&current=50c05trailprotrailpro9.jpg

If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, please enlighten me! Thanks, and sorry for my ignorance! :confused: :wondering :beer

[ATC-Eric]

Love the pic of the kid on the zinger, and that marty hart water pumper fooler is cool!



Thanks for posting dude.

[Dirtcrasher]

Hey Bx2, very AWESOME of you to do this....

Lots of people are short on time and for you to spend your time and SHARE with all of us is simply awesome and very much appreciated :beer.

Thanks very much and I look forward to more issues :D

[rdlsz24]

Works for me still... As far as I know MediaFire doesn't have a restriction on bandwidth usage, or so they say...

[ATC185R]

I bought an NOS set of terry cable fork spring and damper rods on ebay a couple years ago. They are exactly like the ones described in the article. They realy did make a difference too. That's really neat...does anyone know what those springs and rods would be worth for a 185s after they have already been installed? I have the original package and stickers too.

[Autophysn]

Great find, Thanks Andy!

That's cool, darn trail pros fouling things up again. :lol: I guess it's just the word filter blocking something.

I personally can't view your album, it looks to be set on private, it asks for your password when you go there.

[greythorn3]

I remeber as a kid drooling over that 110 frame withthe shock and swingarm for mine, never got it.. oh well.. thanks for posthng that up... takes me back to the cool days.

[riverrat]

Hey I really enjoyed that read.
I never knew about the commander trike. With the pouch for cigs.

[chris200x]

OK.. I am ready for another.. :D

[DixiePlowboy]

Me too!

I vote for the '85 Tecate, R, Z shootout from any of the magazines.

[Vealmonkey]

You have to scan an early mag now. How about one of the 1980 issues? Great job on the scanning but I have that issue! LOL People have more parts that are in those mags than you think. You just gotta keep looking. Keep up the good work.
