  • It was too much to fit into 1 video... so we're did 2! In part 1 of our video, we hit three stops on this trike adventure. We sold some fenders, we bought a project 85 250ES merged with a 350D 4x4. Our 3rd stop brought us to the shop of Vintage Motorsports owned by Mike Palmgren. Mike has been in the business of restoring Vintage 2, 3 and 4 wheelers since the mid 90's and is the best in the business. This was seriously an honor to have this 1 on 1 time with Mike and get the behind the scenes look at his shop and see where all the magic happens. There was so much to see and record, it was too much for one video.
    So, video 1 ends when we left his shop. Part 2 gives a quick recap of Part 1, then picks up at Mike's home workshop... goes through the shop, the upstairs NOS Stash, some other NOS parts areas, then ends in his office... and honestly.... that probably wasn't even half of what there was to see. You couldn't deal with a more humble, friendly guy than Mike. These 2 videos summarize the 6 hours that Mike spent with us that day. It was being a kid in a candy store... Can't wait to go back!
    Thank you Mike and Holly for spending this time with me and Palin. This is a day we're going to remember forever.
    If you want to check out what goodies Mike has for sale, check out his ebay store at:

    That was a very cool 😎 👍 tour. I'd say he has a plethora of vintage parts. Now I know a good source for parts if I need them.

      Here in Canada the 200m rack differs slightly from the Big Red rack. Here the Big Red rack has reflector mounts and the 200m does not as the reflectors are mounted on the grab bar. Trivial, I know but thought I would throw it in here.
