Is it legal to own / ride a 3 wheeler ? I know they were banned from production but not sure the legalities around owning an old one. Thanks

Sure, at your own risk, still wonder what my parents were thinking getting me a Honda 200 at 12 years old. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

Need to go back to making and selling them. Make men out of boys and weed out the others. Many of use grew up on them and taught us about common sense, pain, and responsibility’s. My boys ran the hell out them and dirt bikes before I let them get four wheelers .They didn’t die.

I had a lot of fun riding that thing all over our deer lease and flying down county roads in Coke County. Hard to believe that was almost 30 years ago.

Yeah, but I've seen a photo of you holding a large boar hog with one hand.

I have cheated death too many times already to ride a 3 Wheeler when the world is full of 4 Wheelers.

The one off road vehicle that really shouldn't carry a passenger.
Those back tires would eat your leg and drag you right off the rack.

Fun for one though !

I think those were the only man made items that actually made you smarter and raised your IQ after riding them because if you didn’t learn real quick they were like a pissed off rattler in your sleeping bag. You wised up or became a statistic, I did both and have the battle scars to prove it. I wish I still had my ATC 70, those were the days!!!

Forever ago I hunted off of a Yamaha 225, it had shaft drive, reverse and a rear rack. I had it 4-5 years and enjoyed it, was a lot of fun to ride. No one told me it was a death trap. The only people that had trouble with it were motor cycle riders that would jump on it, put their foot down to make a turn and get pissed when it rode up the back of their leg.


An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

We had an orchard in the Valley. Polio took the use of my grandfather's legs, so Big Red was the only way for him to check the citrus and navigate a couple of resacas. Meanwhile my grandmother bungee corded porch furniture cushions to that metal rack for my 4 year old brother and 6 year old self to sit on. Shame on you Mimi ... but thanks for good times and great memories!

I love mine and thankful to the forum member that gave me the great deal on it several months ago. Over several years I have had 4 of them total. This one now that I repaired it, I am taking better care of and only using it to get from point A to B and not joy riding it. The shin guard and foot guard I put on mine makes it very difficult to put your foot down in front of the rear wheels. the headlights suck on these, but I am in the process of replacing it with an led one right now. I found one on ebay that could be adapted to the stock bezel and light housing.
