Just bought a 1985 200x last week. It came with a nice aluminum loading ramp that I needed also... so not a bad deal for $500. I used to ride a 250r WAY back in the day. It's been a long time since I've rode one but I have had a blast on it. I bought it for my girlfriend to ride but have been riding it quite a bit myself. It's actually a little easier to throw around and climb hills, etc... than my quad. Anyway, here's a pic of the 200x....

right on. Glad I got a good deal. He was asking $750 but the clutch slips a little when hammered so I got it down to $500 for that reason, clutches are pretty cheap though.
I'm in Norman Okla.
and yes... sometimes girls gotta get their knees dirty to get a 3-wheeler
It actually had $700+ of work done to it before I bought it, with receipt. Top end was redone, new fork seals, new tires,etc...

here's a shot of the aluminum loading ramp. I'm glad to hear that I got a good deal. I see 3 wheelers for sale all the time around here. Just saw a Tri-Z for $500 yesterday in the paper.

yep here's the actual ad. It must have sold though as its not listed in friday's paper.


Tri Z-250, 185 Honda, $500 each. Call 401-4112

that's a 405 area code btw...

Cool though, I was wondering if I got a decent deal... It needs a clutch and new sprockets/chain but other than that its in great shape and has had the top end rebuilt lately.... I got a full service manual with it too.

It was actually listed in the RV section of craiglist and no one had called about it... probably why I got him down to $500 so easy. Everything works on it, even the lights, it starts in one kick usually... no smoke,,,, nice little bike

Thanks for the welcome

heck the clutch for that thing is only about 40 bucks with new springs. I just did it to my 200X a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I bought a complete gasket kit instead of just the clutch gasket, I had to take the kick start cover off and tore the gasket. Jim
