Hello:
Call me "Sam". New here, though have been lurking for awhile.
Been around 3 wheelers for a long time (since late 1970's), and had a 1980 Odyssey for awhile in the mid 1980's. Didn't have the necessary wrench skills, fab skills, or money at the time to do it justice. Ended up breaking the chain and shattering the reduction case in the process. I traded it to a friend for a bunch of 3 wheeler parts, but ever since, I've felt as though I've had "unfinished business" with the old FL250's.
Fast forward a few decades. Somewhere along the way I'd managed to acquire a pair of ATC250R's, but found out in 2020 that my aging carcass just didn't have what it took anymore to ride them aggressively anymore. Ended up selling them, but didn't take long to realize my 2 stroke itch still needed to be scratched.
Wound up picking up a few basketcase FL250's with the intention of putting one fairly sound / clean one together out of the parts. But while searching for FL250 parts, I came across a deal on a 1989 Pilot that I couldn't bring myself to pass up. So I come here now as a FL250 & Pilot owner, plenty of searching to do, and a number of questions for you guys.
More to follow later...
I started out on a Lime green ATC90 that was like new moved up to a 83 ATC250R then a FL400 Pilot added a 2010 RZR-S in 2010 its at 18,900 miles
