3 Wheeler's Rule, 4 Wheelers Suck! - Page 2

Klaus, you must have been going fast! because I've done my share of high-speed's through the woods/fields/dirt roads and yes if you do about 30-40 thay will try to throw you off, but thats part of the fun!! it appers to me that you are someone that's had very little time on a trike, if so you'd think otherwise. ohh and im glad you own a bushpup, do you want me to take some pics of me and my belgium made BLR in .243? or my 1969 remginton 870lw 20 gauge or my colt .357 mag(mine, but it's on my father's pistol permit) or one of my other high quality guns?? bush pup, hay that reminds me of the joke my hunting buddy cooter told me last week, although it was something about "bush master", but anyway.

Well trikes of all types drive me crazy, because I can't properly lean into turns. I doubt I was going 30, since it was an old beater ATC-90. I have no doubt that they improved the suspension, but still would not want one. Now, I would gladly take a KTM or Husaberg Dual-Sport 4-stroke off your hands, for a reasonable price.

yea i can't ride those three wheelers like i used too but i like themtwo wheelers just fine tothe last two wheeler i had was a 1980 RM400 it was clocked around 125mph to 130mph. and beleave me the front wheel never touched the ground unless i was shifting or let off the throttle. i had a friend he was about 290 pounds and he was on the gass tank of it and it came up in every gear.it was bad to the bone .and that was with no egzaduratio aczadurati well thats with no bull****. i have throuble with those long words. oh hear it is exaggerating my wike broke out the dictionary for me.

glad to hear you guys(tommy, klaus) like dirt rideing, my only dirt bike right now is a honda 83 XL185S and soon Im going to buy my buddy's honda XR250R, needs a valve job, but runs and has the PRO-LINK rear mono shock, a sweet ***** machine!.

tommy · 05-05-2002, 09:17 PM

hey dodge i just got through cleaning my carb on the 84 atc 110and the slow jet was clogged up 100% well i un clogged it and the thing would not run at all just a few puters. any way until the new jet comes in i stuck a small drill bit in it to plug it off and do you know it runs now it won't idle but it runs very good at that go figure

dodge · 05-06-2002, 06:04 AM

actuly im not surprised, I've seen ot done with a hosehold screw, same thing wouldnt idle though. check out www.atvpart.com thay have carb kits fot 110's for $14, pretty cheap.

tommy · 05-06-2002, 02:38 PM

yea i got one on the way . and did you ever check to see if your air intake tube is still conected in the frame of your 110 and sense you have a 125m check to see if you have one in it too . i had to show the guy who sold me the three wheeler where it was .every body thinks the air intake is at the breather box level but it's not so check out your's and let me know.

dodge · 05-07-2002, 04:35 PM

I checked and mine isnt connected, I've never worried about them tubes.

Momoney567 · 12-18-2007, 09:33 PM

Wow idk how old this is but i do believe you can go to hell

tommy · 12-18-2007, 09:59 PM

what??

Snakebite · 12-30-2007, 05:09 PM

I know this is an old thread and Momoney is a complete and total idiot. I just had to add stuff.
First of all I rode bikes. Everything from a Honda 70 to an arse puckering GPZ1100. I had some crashes that put me in the hospital too. Mostly due to stupid drivers.
I can still ride bikes with the best of them but my ride of choice is a quad.
I'm getting older and I tell you what ...A quad aint that easy!!!
My choice to quads was very easy. Luggage racks, the ability to carry everything you need for a few days camping (including rifle) extra gas...you name it, a quad can carry it. And about not going places a bike won't. VERY few places I've seen I cant do it on a quad and in most cases it is much better on 4 wheels.
I have done the 2 wheel, 3 wheel and 4 wheel. I'll stick with 4 wheel. 4 wheel drive of course!

tommy · 12-30-2007, 10:01 PM

i know i ain't givin up my hpx unless it's to trade it in for a new one.i can trow over 1000lbs in the bed or tow 1200lbs on the reciever hitch am/fm/cd stereo .lol i'll never go back to 4 wheelers again not that i could with my neck injury .but they are esaer to ride.

Magnumsrule · 01-11-2008, 08:25 PM
