Old Honda trail 70 motorcycles

[greg vess]

Who in here remembers those in riding one of them. I'm sitting here watching Roadkill TV show on motor trend and they actually have two of them they're riding around on I can't believe it. He actually looked around and found two of them for him to buzz around town on. I can remember as a kid riding around on one of those funky looking motorcycles

Remember the old ATC three wheelers ? Lol
We had one as kids , they would float - some . Had the balloon tires on them.
I remember riding the trail 70 bikes though….they were cool too ! Of course we tore up everything we had raising hell on them….until we got the Yamaha YZ125

Was a guy that had a pretty good condition big red Honda on here not too long ago. Those things are awesome.

I think they started calling them Big Reds after they came out….ours was just called an “ATC90” ……but yeah, they were fun ! We gave ours hell !

Wonderful machine, they'd run forever. There is one on here for sale, it looks really nice. I never had one, but I have ridden them some. The ones that had them rode all the time

I had one when I was a kid, too young to ride on the street. I've since thought it would be great to have one again - for short errands, an emergency vehicle to tuck into the corner of my garage/truck bed.

There are several 'bolt for bolt' Chinese clones available, many with 125 engines like this one:

I’d stay away from the China clones. They are garbage.

Not necessarily. Most are exact honda copies. Some parts may be cheaper steel or plastic, but can be upgraded with Honda parts in a lot of cases. Of course I'd still buy a Honda for the right price, but with values rising, a brand new clone at half the cost is a good option.
