    My dad is a funny dude..........he's not much for change. Last year we grabbed some 4 wheelers and while he was more then happy not to walk all the way to the woods or drag a deer by hand he mentioned more then a few times that the steering wasn't easy for him (he has a bad neck) and how much he wished he still had his old Honda.


    A few weeks of watching Craigslist and an order to Andy over at Ultimate Camo and she's done with plenty of time to spare. We are going to put a lefty Remington 700 30 '06 in the gun rack and give it to him for Father's Day.


    If he tells me he wishes I left it red I am going to beat him like a rented mule :)

    While it didn't make my day.. cool ride indeed.

    I think you'll have a hard time getting him off of it.

    Is that a 110? My dad had a 1980 110 that he kept until 2000, still ran great when he sold it. Cool ride.

    It's a 1983 Honda 200cc


    Guy still had the freakin' owners manual..........starts on first pull and runs like a champ. All I did to it mechanically was change the oil.

    Dad had a 1980 and a 1985 and kept them forever, finally selling them because they just sat there collecting dust. We hunted state lands almost exclusively when I was a kid so we couldn't use them for hunting then.

    He has been moping about selling them since the day he did..............like I said, he doesn't like change.........at all. He has a SWEET new snowblower that is almost a joy to use but ask him about it and he will tell you 10 things his 40 year old Toro did better :)

    He's been killing deer with the same Remington Wingmaster for over 40 years so that 30 '06 should go over like a fart in church.

    Atlas, sweet ride! My first ATC was the 185S. Finally couldn't take the jostling around anymore and got the Foreman.

    Sweet Atlas,

    I still have my original 200cc. I replaced the original gas tank with an after market version. Mine still runs like a top!

    You're a good man Charlie Brown!

    That's a Honda for you!

    How I didn't kill myself when I was younger on a 3-wheeler is beyond me.

    That's AWESOME!!! I sold/gave my Big Red away back in March after it blew the engine. The guy I gave it to takes basket-case 3-wheelers, and restores them back to good working order. The thing was more fun in the snow than any 4-wheeler you could ever play on, if I find one for a decent deal again, I'll buy it in an instant!!! :tu:
