Does anyone know the weight of a 200X? Or atleast close to what the weight would be?
I am trying to get a trike from down in St. Louis and I need the weight to get a quote.
He is also selling a engine with it, so add that weight onto it, too.. any guesses??

And has anyone ever dealt with Yellow Freight? My dad says there is a terminal close to here.

Thanks
Ben

I'm pretty sure the 83-85 200X's were 278-282lbs.

I have dealt with Yellow Freight. With a 60% discount (which you will normally not get), from IL to CA, a trike cost me $420 to ship. So, in other words, for a distance of that amount, they are brutal. However, for shorter distances, they may be cheaper than the place I'm thinking of. I'm pretty sure it was about $450 to ship within any given "zone". There are a couple of ATV/motorcycle shipping companies out there that have good rates. They pick up the vehicle, crate it, and deliver it to your door. And they are generally way cheaper than Yellow. I have the name of one at home if you can't find it by doing an online search.

I don't know why I asked for the weight.. lol. I remembered the Specs page shortly after I posted this. Thank you for the reply, though!!
What I really need are the dimensions of 200X's.. could someone measure theirs for me? lol
My dad had a Swisher mower shipped from St. Louis a year or 2 ago and it cost him under $100 (he said around $90) to ship it here, and that mower is heavy. I would guess it is around 300lbs.
I sent emails to the 2 companies asking for quotes, but I know I'll need dimensions..
Thanks
