My gf wants to ride a 3 wheeler when we go out rideing but the sx is alittle to heavy and wheely happy for her and she's not good with hand clutch model's so i caught a deal on a 110 i think with hi and low range would this be better if not about what cc or better yet what trike would be better for her to start out on?

A 110 is a great starter but i would lean towards a 84-85 125m as they have electric start as well as hi lo range. The 86-87 models are hard to find but they are even better. They dont have hi lo but they are 5 speed with reverse.

Even a 185/200 would work. If she has a hard time keeping the front down on your SX, maybe you should work with her on throttle control. Just a suggestion. Mine doesn't seem to be overly wheelie happy.

The 110 was alittle uncomfortable for her cause of her height but there is 185s model we are going to try thanks for all the replys anyone know if there is a difference in a 185 and 185s?

The 185s is more sportier than the 185. I think has a shorter wheel base (I could be wrong on that though), 3 inch smaller tires, higher top speed. the '83 s models had front suspension. They had the exact same engine too except for the the '80 185 which is just had one tiny difference.
