So I recently picked up a 85 ATC70 for my 3 year old, actually got a hell of a deal on it... I traded a spare 200x front tire/wheel/hub and rotor for it.

So it was missing: the tank, recoil and cage, front sprocket and retainer.

Had a trashed exhaust, seat was plywood with a vinyl wrap, throttle was beat and 2 tires were shot.

I have never been real fond of the seat and tank look of the 70's any way.


So, Its getting a XR80 tank and seat. White tank,and blue seat makes for a sweet look and are much less expensive than the ATC70 seat and tank.
4 inch frame stretch makes it fit great.

Headlight from a 200M looks great with simple mount fabbed for it.

Stock thumb throttle from a 450R looks great on the bars and functions great too.

200X switch cluster solves the kill that was on the 70 throttle as well as the headlight.

Got a universal brake light switch going inside the frame at the rear by the brake.

New cable for a 85ATC110 took care of the longer brake cable.

Down the road its getting a complete late model XR70 flywheel and full cdi setup.

As well as a SL 70 Intake and an XR 80 carb and a late model XR70 topend (bigger valves and higher compression) and I will be modding a 2 Bros CRF70 exhaust to fit.

I will post the before as well as during pics within the next day or so but even just mocked up it looks badass to me..... Macgyver76

Can't wait to see some pics, and I'm not a big fan of the stock tank and seat either.
