  • Steve: I knew it! I could tell it by the way you gave answers to questions and the three wheelers. All these years I kinda wondered where you went. I am very glad to here life has been treating you well. I am writing this on the computer at So cal Edison's data center in Rosemead where I work "sorta" these days. When we worked at the Hilton I remember I would call the Honda 50 my brother had a mini bike and you would say no mike mini cycle mini cycle. If you want to give me a call my cell phone number is: 323-793-0256. My home phone is: 818-352-5549. I work Tuesday thru Saturday swing 2 to 10pm. My cell phone doesn't work at my place due to the mountains. If you get this today (Saturday) and want to give me a call, I'm here till ten tonight. Mike
    Steve: I am a new member (about a week) to old mini bikes and saw your name and I used to work with a steve Durham at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. We used to talk about mini bikes and go karts and always woundered where he went after the Hilton. Mike
    steven,

    im definitely interested in a wheel. I noticed one of them is a two-toned in color. I would prefer the other one if it's one color, no paint.

    What would you charge?

    Well Cris : Some things are best left in the past that may be one of them. Boy that big tornado sure came to close to a lot of people in your area and made a big big mess in Missouri. I don't think I could stay in an area with that much potential of weather related disaster history. We just have a Volcano 50 miles up the road.
    Keep the faith. Steve
    Just a little late getting back to thank you for reminding me I'm getting older. B-Days are no fun any longer since I quit drinking back in Oct. 07

    Before I looked at the forum I checked out my PMs. In there was a request to get the fuel tank off the Wisconsin engine. I PMed back to him before reading your post that said you were interested! I'm sorry.

    Did I get you right, in a previous message, that you will sell a James 2-speed for $50? I would like to buy it. But I don't want you to have to go to the trouble of shipping it with me paying only the 50 plus the shipping cost. I happen to know it is a big hassle to drain oil, find a box, get other packaging material, tape and etc and then drive to the Post Office. I would like to pay you for at least part of your trouble. How about we make the price 75 plus shipping cost?
    Well....my hauler is picking it up Tues and it is on its way to MN. It actually came with a second body set.....a seat that you straddle like a motorcycle and a different set of forks with a fairing.
    Yes It was so weird looking, couldn't see myself crawling into that tunnel and if I did I would probably never get out.
    Steve
    Hello Rick : Well no one I ever talked to could say how many were made. The first ones were the single seat made in 1974 in the latter part of that year they came out with the two seat model same frame only the body was changed. Now a few people made new body's with their own two seat configuration them stretched it longer and dropped the passenger down behind the driver.
    I have had one of the 1975 two seat trikes and sold it to a guy in up state New York it was a black trike and it was a factory color never any mention of any black units.
    I will say that the 1200 number will have to stand till some real proof comes out.
    I can send you pictures of the odd ball Centaurs if you let me know you e-mail address . Mine is sdurham11@comcast.net
    Steve
    Steve, You seem to be the Centaur guru. Had mine out for a ride today...got the inevitable "expert" talking to me. In the conversation I told him "according to my knowledge" there were about 1200 made. He says there were way more than that. Do you have definative numbers on the production? Thanks, Rick
    Hello Painter : I saw your name over on the BTW site right. I have been a BTW member for 9 years and go by the handle of ( I Dream of Trikes )
    About the Tri-Sport utility trike I have no experience in them but pictures do help out a bunch. I know a few of the people here have some of them. So put up questions and picture in the more than 2 section and there will be some replies.

    I have A Allsport 3 wheel ultilty cart with dump bed with a 10 horse motor. My dad bought in the mid 70's.Runs great but the brakes need replaced can you help me ?
    Hello Walt : Well this manual is very big and has a lot of pages for pricing and cross referencing parts numbers. Lots of good information but a lot of things that I don't ever look at. I have been thinking I would post up some of the fact sheets for the type of things we use like the early TAV-2 and the 500 and some of the smaller systems too.
    Steve
