Many custom full suspended frames and other performance parts still float around auctions and sales even still today. Small enough for children to ride, but powerful enough to carry around their parents, the 70 has been long favored as the perfect family machine, and an excellent pit bike! 70 racing actually developed a large following spawning a large support from the aftermarket. Weighing in at a measly 163.1 lbs but touting a 72cc displacement engine really gives the little ATC an incredible power to weight ratio. Like the US90, now renamed the ATC90, the ATC70 received updated body styling, engine and drive train refinements along with it's bold new graphics. Missing from action for 2 years though allowed Honda to refine the machine for it's return in 1978. Speculation leads us to believe that sales may have been poor, or perhaps the public just wasn't ready for the little trike. Length 1300mm, width 800mm, Height 785mm, Weight 74kg. 16x8x7 low pressure tyres, SPWAMULASS (Water,Mud,Land,Sand,Snow). 3 speed auto clutch transmission (78-81) 4 speed (82-85). Little known is the fact that the little trike was actually missing from Honda's lineup from 1975 until 1978. ATC70, 2nd generation introduced 1978, ends 1985, Features: Model Code for 78-85 models '957'.
Even though in many circles, the adults seem to ride these like trikes the most, the Honda ATC70 was actually the first children's ATV ever produced.ĭebuting in 1973 Honda released the smallest three wheeler offered in their line up and continued it's production up until the 1985 production ban. Following Honda's undeniably huge success of the US90, the motorcycle giant set their sights a little lower and introduced the Honda ATC70.
