Oh this is for a female friend, she is very happy with it. Her daily round trip commute is 6 miles. 1 gallon of gas will last her 3 1/2 weeks. We sold the 150 trike to a guy with a couple of them. Ours turned out to have cracked welds on it and with my arthritis, my welding is bad

It's LEGO Friends over here. You might have seen me pushing her down the street in her Barbie stroller/trike yesterday. LOL That's OK guys, when a good looking woman half your age wants something, she gets it.

yeah this thing has been abused. Previous owners were idiots. Fix everything with wire ties and tape. The cable for the seat release broke so they used a bolt to hold it in place. As long as i get the mechanical problems fixed she can worry about the paint herself. Everything has to be pink, I kid you not.

The weather finally was nice to get things done. New shocks, intake manifold, coil and spark plug are installed. I have a new cdi box to put on it. Fixed exhaust hooked up new battery and started right up. Took it for a mile ride to get it warmed up. Noticed a few things, throttle seems tight, and idle seems a little high. May look for a new throttle cable. Reverse not working so I need to check that out. It also seems jerky when you start out, have to do some reading on that. Had it up to 45 mph and felt sturdy. Ill play with it more tomorrow

This is why I'm asking questions, after looking at the rear shock some more it's not broken. Looks like the bottom clevis was unscrewed all the way. Alley, I'll pm you some model specific questions since yours is close to mine

Since the weather was decent, I got to tear into this thing. Found a broken shock on the rear, looks like someone took out the starter dogs on the pull starter, it does have a uni filter on it. I'm putting a list of stuff together to hunt down. I noticed the intake manifold is covered in silicone, so that will be replaced. Not sure if I can but if the pull starter parts can't be had, is it possible to install the kick starter set up on it?

That looks like it's mounted under the seat. I may have to see if I can relocate mine there. I'm planning on replacing battery wires and upgrade the glass fuse holder to a blade type anyways.

I carry a pair of Springfield GI's in 45acp. Only time I'm not armed is when I go into liberal infested states like NY,NJ,and MD. 30 years and never had to use them, but felt better knowing they were there.

What is the correct size battery for the ice bear pst150-9 trike? The previous owner put a oversize battery in it and it's too tall to close the door.

Thanks guys. Suffered a major set back this week, what thought was carpal tunnel syndrome in both of my wrists turned out to be a upper motor neuron disease. It's gonna take a lot more testing to narrow down which one it is. Either way it's not gonna be a picnic. I replaced the sight glass in the master cylinder, put new mirrors on and new pink grips..I have to get the correct size battery for it. The idiots put a bigger battery in it and removed the lock from the battery compartment door. After that just need to bleed brakes and check fluids. Gonna be in the 40's and 50's this week so it shouldn't take long. Off to dinner and drinks to half celebrate my birthday

Thanks guys, I have to replace the sight window on the right master cylinder. Not sure if I should get a new assembly or not. Other than body pieces most everything can be replaced. The rack on the back does bolt on. I should have really looked at it better before buying because its been rigged instead of being fixed properly. I really want to find a windshield for it. If not I may put different handle bars on it and mod it out big time.
