i have recently purchased a mystery year honda 200m. anyways, it runs great and all that. im wonderng what the M stands for? i know S is sport and E is electric, what M? I rescued this trike from sitting in storage. plastic has seen better days, and the pull start is broken. But it runs like a champ. here is 2 pics, as you can see the plastic is hooped. all the stickers are off, lol. so im going by his word its a M. IDK im curious to what you guys gots to say.

That is not a 200M -the 200M models had electric start. That is an ATC200.

What made you think it was a 200M?

i just got into trikes, i was into 4x4ing before. now im trying to sell my 89 4runner. I bought a yt 125 a couple weeks ago, and was hooked from the minute i got on it. Then this came along, got it for a very good price of 40 bux CAD. I know nothing about trikes, but i am no stranger to repairing and maintaining my machine. This is just much cheaper than my truck fix and maintain for trail use. is this a fairly good machine in general? what can you tell me about it?? thanks for the fast replies guys.

I have a 200 and its very reliable. A rough ride though.

im going to be using it for muddin, i just dont like how the chain is so vulnerable. ill need to fab up a cover of some sort..... these things just dont die eh? watching some vids on utube. lol i was pretty suprised when i got it running on the 2 year old gas that was in it. but after seeing some of these vids. rough ride yes, but dependability and durability.

It originally had a chain cover on it like this:

pull the motor and put it in a 200x chassis for suspension

i would but i dont have a rolling chassis just sitting around. But i did find a atv salvage yard not even 30 minutes from my door, thats some great news. ill see if i can score some plastic and pull start from there. And my Yt 125 could some parts as well. I need that chain cover, i hope i can find one, and soon. i dont know how long i can keep it out of the mud. im a junkie.....
