Cole you should try some YFZ or Raptor hubs, bad thing about Blaster hubs is that they are the only ones in the Yamaha family to use that bolt pattern.

Tip: If I am not mistaken with a little work you can get the CRF50 aftermarket pipes to work on a ATC70, but I will verify this.

ATC 200x hubs fit also... that will give you the 4/110 pattern

Changing the bolt pattern makes it easier to buy rims, stop you from having to run the two piece wheels with the oring.

Weight that is funny the amount of weight is nothing compared to putting an adult on a bike that was made for a little kid, so I dont think that really comes into play for us.

3wheeler.org!!!! thats what I am talking about!

oh, and a little note, if you decide to run larger rims and tires, you may need to fab up some spacers to raise the rear fenders for clearance, there is a thread about this on .org in the 70's section. along with alot of other helpful information.

Different tip:

After tips from a variety of sites, including this one, I did the muriatic acid to clean up the majority of the rust inside the tank. Flushed it with gas, but still had a little. Went back and used CLR with some nuts and washers, shook the sh*t out of it, and re-flushed with gas. Taking to a radiator shop next to do treatment. Looks new inside. A little muriatic acid got on the paint and its chipping so careful if you want to keep original paint.

Tried compressed air to take out dents on the side from the forks. one came out, but the other is stubborn.

I like the sterdy exhaust, but the cobra is cheaper. any feedback on the cobra exhaust?

:ynot:

I bought an after market big bore pipe off ebay for my trx 70 and had no problems bolting it right up.I had to bend it a tiny bit for clearance issues but it was minor.Of course I have no rear fenders on mine so I guess that would change alot.I think the best thing to do is ditch the whole motor and drop in a bigger one.It makes it so much more fun to ride.The aftermarket motors will bolt right in with no mods to the frame.

Here is a more recent pic of the TRX110.It doesnt matter how long this thing sits it always fires right up and runs like a top.This is the only bike ive ever owned that gives me zero issues.
