My friend and I decided to restore this 1984 diamond in the rough for a winter project.....back in 2008 haha. When a new shop was built we took the trike to an old shed where it sat in 100 pieces until I stumbled upon a few months ago. We've had a great time restoring this thing! Probably went through more money worth of beer than we did for parts so it took a little longer than expected....But here she is, we aren't completely done as we ran out of beer and parts but with saying that... What do you think so far? The original was quite an eye sore.

I'll take an 86 or 87 any day. They are unbelievably fast and handle like a dream. And that's coming from an ATC250R owner.
