Trike Fest 2024 - How do you prepare for the biggest three wheeler event of the year??
So, Trike Fest 2024 has come and gone... and I'm JUST getting caught up with pics and videos from our time at Haspin Acres. So if you're watching this and thinking Trike Fest is next week... it isn't... I'm just late in getting this edited. Anyway, in true "let's bite off more than we can chew" fashion, I decided to bring 9 machines with me to Trike Fest this year. For me, it's normally a 12 - 12.5 hour drive from eastern NY to Laurel Indiana. So it's a haul. My daughter was going for her 2nd time. My son Bennett was coming for his first time. He's in this video a few times... don't let his blank stares fool you. He's normal... just being a wise guy.
Anyway, almost every machine I picked to bring needed a little something... I got through everything in the video. Mostly just some carburetor cleaning type stuff. Some wiring work on the Pink Palomino. A couple oil changes on my ATC 350X and my sons ATC 250SX. We rebuilt the front forks on that machine too and did a tire change. The new Serwa Tires make that machine look nice and correct now. My lifted 200M needs more attention... but I brought it along for the ride just because.
What you'll see in this video is I have a tendency to go overboard and way overpack. Half of these machines I didn't even touch while I was there... except unloading them and loading them back up. But, it's all part of the journey. And stay tuned to see what I picked up along the way! I'll be getting to that in my next video!

Have you ever heard that the word BOAT is just an acronym for the words Bust Out Another Thousand? Well, it turns out it doesn't apply just to the boat itself... but boat related things too!! I built my dock back in 2015 and figured... I'll probably get 20... maybe 25 years out of it before I'll have to mess with it... Boy was I wrong. Well, maybe if it was a normal lake... but not the unforgiv...

It's been 3 LOOOOOONG years since my 85 ATC 250R was torn down for a little face lift. I don't know why it's taken me so long to get it to the finish line. I thought this video would be the one where I finish it off... but unfortunately you'll have to wait for ONE MORE VIDEO to see it all complete. That little face lift of a project has evolved into a full blown nut and bolt, full motor tear do...

When your buddies Gavin (Shred Eighty) and Noah (Swamp Outlaw) get ahold of you and tell you they "want to come out and lift up one of your three wheelers..." you say LET'S GOOOOO!!!

    You've taught me something.. an old dog CAN learn! When I was 3 (as I recall) my older brother & I shared an ATC 70. When he got a regular dirt bike (Suzuki ts 250) the little 3 wheeler was all mine, but he had to patch the many flat tires I'd get from rattle snakes striking tires & leave hollow fangs, letting out the air. I learned it was a '73. I've never seen another like it until this video. I've described it to people.. orange with flames from the factory. People just looked at me funny. When I got older my dad traded it for a 90cc with huge balloon tires. I hated it, but it did float if I wasn't on it. Under powered for the tires & it took all I had to keep handlebars straight. Probably a bad wheelbearing... Anyways, I had such good memories thatwhen i seen an '85 on a job site I bought it for $100. Needed tires and carb rebuilt. My son outgrew it and since my brother had younger kids I sent it with him when he moved to Idaho from Washington state. His kids outgrew it and he was moving to South Dakota, so I took it back. I gave it to one of my son's friends with two small boys & a smaller girl. He loves it so much he got a full size 3 wheeler for himself - not a cool one like a 250X or something.. people think they're worth their weight in gold! But anyway, thank you for showing the different years, I'm tired of the crazy looks when I describe the '73. Cheers!
