my first ATC70

[John L]

i always wanted to have an atc 70 to screw around on and well this thing came up, my friend had it sitting behind his house for like 5 years and he told me about it, he said it ran when he parked it, i picked it up for 50 bucks and i should have no problem getting it started.

does anyone have an extra pull starter they want to get rid of? pm me please

Keep an eye on Ebay for a pull starter or you can buy a new one for 133.00 from DRATV. I just bought a new one for my Tonka Trike. I also bought a new carb rather than fight with the carb I just rebuilt. 109.00 for a brand new carb.

well those pictures up there are the before pics, well i've been tinkering with it for a while now and pretty much doing a ground up restoration on it. and also building the motor to have even more fun on it.

well this is the pipe i got for it off ebay, i really like the look of it and i bet it's going to sound really cool

well i should be done with the bike very soon, i have a rollin chassis, i'm only waiting on one more part and then i can start assembly,
right know i'm in the process of sealing the tank and painting it, painting the engine and assemble it.

:headbang: :headbang: :headbang: I've started searching Ebay myself, but haven't seen the exhaust.......................spill the beans, where you find it?:chuckle:

[John L]

type in exhaust pipe muffler crf50 honda and that should pop up alot of different ones they run about 50 shipped, mine was 38.50 becouse i got a coupon for 10 off shipping from ebay otherwise it would be 48.50.

looking great john!!! usually the bug bites hard BEFORE the first one is done to get another!!!! so far it looks good ,,, i like those tires they are the right profile for a 70 too,,,,,, i also have one of those pipes,,, its a pit bike pipe,,,, i have never installed it either,,,

[ScottZJ]

Looks like you'll be "CRACKIN' KNEECAP'S" with the rest of us ...REAL SOON!!!:thumbsup:

[Hippie459MN]

Looks good and nice score for only $50. I still cant find one around here let alone 2 of them like I want.

[ATCeeYa]

And I thought I scored a cheap one! Good deal! I love those tires you put on it too. Kind of sucks I just got new ones but standard style. I really like what you did with it.

[John L]

got it almost done, have everything together, all i need is a seat cover and i will be done

this is to see what it looks like with the plastic on it

I like that John. Looks clean..

[Gdkarma]

:headbang: :headbang: I like the white and red, that looks much better than I would have imagined. You've done some nice little touches here and there, and helped me get some ideas:hail: :hail:

I've got to figure out that cheap exhaust. You bought a complete, chromed exhaust that fit without bending it and cracking the chrome?

[ScottZJ]

Nice job John......nothing like being able to step back and look at your wonderful creation. Then.....hoppin on it and taking it for a spin.:headbang:

[225DX DUDE]

Very nice job John!!! I also like the white and red. Now get it dirty hehe.

[jenndnn3]

These guys do all their own work! And their stuff is awesome!

John you coming out to Spinreel? Look in the rides section..

[John L]

i'm thinking about it what date is it on, and about the pipe it does requer some bending not bad tough

[Millsi]

love the white!

[John L]

this is the completed project, i took it all out already and the thing is really quick
