Whats the difference?

[Cro577]

I was wondering. What is the difference between The Honda ###x, the ###s 3wheelers?
And what other models are there? I have a Hond ATC 200X, i know theres the 'X' the "S' models.

If this isnt making any sense, just say so, its not making any sense to me either.

Thanks,
Cro.

the "x" models have full suspension,and are more for sport riding, the "s" models are hardtails

there are also r,es,sx,m,and e models

[Cro577]

and what are those models?

ES are Big Reds, with (electric start)... I am sure others will chime in with more details on the other models... (I have only owned, X, R, and ES models)

200E is more of a utility rig with aux power and electric start. 200ES to what I remember is either shaft drive or just a fancy 200E. 250SX is a shaft driven, reverse gifted 250 with a type of RFVC. The X is kind of like a 350X by what it has, but is smaller, has 2 valves instead of the 350X's 4, and smaller features. Those 200Xes can really bruise your shins if your foot slips off the kicker.
Enjoy your ATC!

If you browse the old spec pages, you might gain some insight to the differences.

The Full Line brochure from 1984 should clarify things:

This was very helpful, thank you! Just identified my newly purchased 1985 250 ES thanks to this thread. :-)

And changed one thing in the link above and the Full Line brochure for the 1985's popped up. Thanks for using standard naming conventions!

Never mind. Just went to find the manual based on this info and there is no manual for an '85 250 ES, so maybe that's not right after all.
