    Thanks for the trip down memory lane! My brothers and I wheeled almost the exact setup. 78 C10 long bed with a Honda Big Red, 250 sx and a Suzuki (50 cc?) dirt bike that was later swapped out for Polaris Scrambler 3 wheeler, requiring us to use a trailer or a second truck. Back when gov. ground was free to ride and no numbers required. Many summers of fun in Indiana! Awesome that the 250 sx still has brakes. Ours did until they didn't and we never fixed them. First gear on the downhills was enough. Great video!

    Thank you for the best ATC footage the internet has seen in a long time! I haev over 30 Honda ATCs and have done almost exactly what you did with nearly all of them; buy them beat for cheap and fix them up to former glory. I have nearly every ATC Honda ever made and the 250sx is a true pleasure to ride. My 250r's and 350x;s are great, don't get me wrong, but the 250sx is just easy to start, predictable and has a lot of realiable grunt! Awesome video, and fantastic rescue of that old Honda!

    Im out here in New Zealand and had a early Honda ATC 200B?. The big red For those who don't know its the one with the big Ohatsu tyre and no front shocks. I remember riding along a nice flat beach in top and hit a hollow spot. The trike went up . I went up. The trike came down . I came down. I bounced up off the seat and the trike carried on without me as i disappeared off the back and bounced . the bruises lasted for a while ouch. LOL Too much pressure in the front tyre was just as bad as too little pressure . There wasn't a sweet spot that I ever discovered but it was a lot of fun. I''m probably lucky that it was on 200cc and not the 250cc two stroke. Nearly every tree in New Zealand is ever green so they dont go those fantastic colours before they turn brown and drop off. I was in Maine in 2015 in November and the colours were fantastic. Awesome vid Kevin
