I've always loved trikes. My son apparently must've picked up on that. Not only did he surprise me with an 85 Big Red to restore, but he picked himself up an 85 Tri-Z to restore as well. He's definitely got a lot more money and labor wrapped up into his, but damn she looks sweet. Just finished his this week and he just can't stop staring at it. I tell the kids they'll be burying me with my Big Red.238948075_159561542965736_3294403076747070689_n.thumb.jpg.85b4b1768eaceb46591a2d2645e5f3f6.jpg

Very Cool!  My Big Red is pretty original with a ton of Hondaline items.... HL guard, Work Light, Speedo, Rear "Trucker" Mud Flaps and even a Honda of Canada block heater!  Non Hondaline assessories are CMP foot guard/skid plate and a Cycle Country snow plow.   Where did you get those side mudflaps on the back?  Honda made those side trim pieces that are nearly always MIA!

      Restore my junk
      By Indiana-George
      Good morning riders! Just a quick thought...
      I bought an old ATV from some kid that is missing plenty of parts and had alot of bandaids on it. It's a Suzuki quadsport lt230s. I really want to see this thing in it's former glory but some of the parts are really hard to find. One in particular that I'm having trouble finding is the trap inside the air box for the filter. Why is this part so hard to find? And why is it missing? Is there a replacement I can consider?

      does any body have access to a labor rate guide for an 88 LT-4WD?
      By rebeltaz
      I've got a 1988 LT-4WD I'm working on. I'm pretty good at giving prices (I usually screw myself, but...) but this one... This is the first time in my life that I have EVER had to pull an ENGINE just to replace a GAS TANK! I'm calling it about 8 hours, but some of that time was spent dealing with other customers, looking for tools, etc... I would LOVE to know what the rate guide actually calls for for this. 
       
      Side not... I wish engineers would have to spend a few weeks/months working on everything that they designed. Pretty sure designs would change REAL quick!
       
      Thanks,

      1995 400 xplorer 4x4 restore from storage
      By Micah Gafford
      I bought this ATV from a friend who had it stored in their shed for a few years. I've been going through it getting things ready to fire it back up and get it driving around. So far I've changed out fluids, removed and cleaned gas tank. I am waiting on a fuel fitting to be ready to able to put the gas tank back on and fire up the engine. I'll follow up once I get to that point with whether or not that went smoothly.
      Right now however I've got a brake problem. The brakes were locked up. I took the brake line off the master cylinder and made sure that it wasn't locked up, it works. I proceeded to try and flush them no luck. Then I just disconnected the brake lines. They appear to be blocked up. I don't know if the hose portions deteriorated or what. I've found the front left and right brake lines, although $70-80 each doesn't make me happy... I can't find anyone selling the rear brake line 1930751 or the primary 1930760 that goes to the inverted flare cross fitting. This leads me to wonder if I should buy parts and tools to make my own brake lines.
      Two questions:
      If I should decide to make my own can you point me to any tutorials out there on doing that and what size are these lines with the flared fittings?
      Can anyone else find the two brake lines i listed for sale somewhere?
