Whenever I finish my AT2M project I've got three AT2/3 bikes on deck. As slow as I am I'm set for the next 30 years.

Donniejoe, took me 5 yrs on my 360 and I am still not completely done.   the bike was such a mess, handlebars were smashed 50 different ways, wrong lights, wrong switches if any, bolts from unknown sources, front wheel warped > 1" and out of round, no headlight, taillight smashed from wheelies, wiring melted and spliced with home electrical connectors (Tinkicker would have loved this one), clutch basket broken off from screwdriver, carb intake made from dryer hose split in middle and tapped together..., fender looked like hail damage, no fluid in forks at all, wrong gauges wedged with chips of wood and huge nuts where cable connectors attached, wiring to key cut completely loose.    BEST PART AND THIS IS NO LIE:  Guy said, "I've done so much to restore this bike..."
I laugh about it now.  I will never buy another bike in this shape.

Working on few bikes. All run but need minor improvements or parts to complete. The DR200 runs great though.
