Another passion of mine: Honda ATC's (3-wheelers) Anyone else into them here?

Wheelers, particularly the water cooled two strokes, require tremendous amounts of body English to ride competitively on at high speeds without breaking yourself to bits!

Yours look suspiciously pristine and too clean.

Having raced two stroke 250 motorcycles at Saddle Back, and an open class 85 YZ490 in the desert, it never ceased to amaze me that my buddy's hopped up 85 250R wheeler could accelerate past me out of the hole with far less HP than I had on my 490. It's because he had over twice as much rubber on the ground than I did!

Why do you say that??

Trust me, I ride em! Those are just my better pics I get every now and then after a good washing.

Always loved them. here are mine.

From left to right:
1985 350x Bought used in 1988

1984 200x Bought new

1986 250r Bought used in 1989

1986 350x Bought new

The '86 350x is stock other than rear rims and tires, headlight guard, MC guard and tank cover

Here's a couple old pics taken at Silver Lake sand dunes in Michigan. This was in '88

To the OP, those are some nice ones you have there. The 1985 - 1987 250r's were the best ever made. I actually rode a 1987 250r ATC. When we were at Silver Lake a guy from Canada was there with one. It was mint and the factory plastic was white with a layout like the 1986 350x. Sweet looking trike. The only 4 wheeler I really liked backed then was the 1988 250r. Buddies had them and they made scary hills a piece of cake.

I knew it as soon as I seen that first pic, I thought to myself, that has to be Silver lake. Those two Silver lake pics look like something right out of my own photo album. Nice bikes Kevin!
