    another 200x today.... build

    Picked up this baby for $100. It has been sitting outside for a while. 84 Honda ATC 200x rolling chassis. Im planning on turning this into another auto-x, and it will be for my father to ride. Do you guys think it was a good $100 spent? I have most of the parts to get it going minus the footpegs, and I have a tank, but it needs to be coated. The frame is mostly complete, but I dont like the yamaha busted up 225dx fenders with the 200x seat, and the jacked wiring harness... One thing that suprised me was that it still had the rear swingarm skid plate! None of my 200x's yet have had that. This is the way I buy them, but a lot of muscle and elbow grease into them, and turn them into a reputable, reliable rider. Let me know what you think.....

    great deal its nice to see another trike ressurected.


    This is my trike.
    There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My trike is my best friend.
    It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life.
    Without me my trike is useless.
    Without my trike, I am useless.
    I must roost faster than my enemy who is trying to beat me to the finish.
    I must beat him before he beats me.
    Before God I swear this creed.
    My trike and myself are defenders of track.
    We are the masters of keeping quads the losers.
    So be it ... until there is no quad left.

    This one will be turned into an auto x. I actually got it all together yesterday, and took it for a ride! It did good. I pulled the motor from one of the 185's that had some drive train issues. I got a set of footpegs coming my way, which I needed for the build, and I need to figure somthing with the gas tank, its really rusty inside. I used these two parts from my 200x, just to be able to take it for a spin. I will also be on the lookout for a decent set of rear fenders, and a muffler, nothing special, just for a rider. Thanks for the input, and i'll get some better pics when the progress gets further along!
