I was just wondering for when i go into shopping for a new trike to have id like it to have reverse. is it only the X models or are their some that have it. i have a 200s and later on down the road might go to a 250x or 300x possibly.

Kawasaki klt160, 1984 ,85 and 86 Honda Big reds, 85-87 Honda 250sx, Suzuki alt125, and 86 and 87 Honda 125m I beleive as well. There were some aftermarket kits to convert the early 200 honda chain drives to a reverse machine"rare". Yamaha 225dr also had reverse, and not real sure about the larger cc Kawasaki klt's??

Some Suzuki ALT185 had reverse too, not sure about the larger KLT's but pretty sure none came with reverse.

It was weird Kawi never put reverse on their KLT250's. Would have been a great utility trike if they had reverse.

Kawasaki klt160 did not have reverse and was chain driven(same with klt110)....But the KLT 185 is shaft driven and has reverse.. I believe the 200cc+ KLT's also sported reverse but I haven't had time to research them.
With that being said the klt 185's are rare, and if you find one you should snatch it up they were only sold in 1986
the over 200cc klt's are more plentiful

You sir, are incorrect. The 85 KLT160 is in fact shaft drive and does in fact have reverse.

So it's between a quad and something that doesn't exist. I'll take the one that doesn't exist.

Won't be the first time I'm wrong...but I not a noob. I haven't found one yet, and the specs say it never came with reverse. show me were your getting your info and I'll readily admit I was wrong.

Hmm, interesting. I guess you are right. so what about the 110's? I was told from like half a dozen people that the 110 and 160 were kissing cousins while the 185 was entirely different
Your bike looks exactly like my 185....hmm
Edit: I just looked up the specs(for my self). it would appear that my friends at the shop are a bunch of dumb atrailprotrailproes it's actually the 160 and 185 that are alike and the 110 that's different

I mean a 250X is a quad and a 300X doesn't exist.

i believe all zuki alt185's have reverse...as they were only made for one year...i dont think they came with "options"

well yeah if u have it tuned right. but like when the rope breaks. or when you need to buy a rebuild kit for it. its a pain in the butt and alot of money.
