Worst thing ever to happen to me

[ATC crazy]

Honda200...

If you bought your trike with your own hard-earned money...I dont see how your dad could tell you to get rid of it. He should not have a say in it if he didn't put one dime towards the trike. At least thats how it works in my house. Do whatever you can to keep it...and do whatever you can to keep it AND get the quad..

Good luck

Just imagine your me for a minute, (actually dont wish too too hard, i dont have a great life, lol) i am out workin on the 200X and i go in for dinner, my dad says when i sit down: now son, i know you love your 3 wheeler, but, its not safe, we want you to sell it, and we want you to buy a 4 wheeler.

MY GOD!!!! HELP ME!!!!!

i heard something about wheel spacers, add like 2 and half inches each rim or something for stability?

I told my dad about them, he said he would look into them if i found a site for them, and i even told him about the Tri-Z havin the gas tank under the seat so it has a low centre of gravity, but he still wont go for it, he wants me to get this warrior for 2K, runs, looks good, but i want to keep my 200X!!!!

Someone please help, ATC crazy, MR ATC, JEB, HOWDY, 250RMAD, MANNY 55, anyone!!

denniskirk.com sells wheel spacers. Durablue.com has wheel spacers they cost 110 bucks though. Whats your tire size on there now. Tell your Dad to give you a chance to prove to him you are good enough to ride the 3 wheeler. What made them think of this all of a sudden.

Curtis

[Manny55]

from what i heard wheel spacers help a lot. The link didnt work either.

hey man...i know some people that had a honda 200 or 250 3 wheeler...i havent seen it in like 3 years anyway ill get straight to the point u can do 1 of 2 things...buy a big knobby front tire and wheel spacers or convert it to a 4 wheeler i know people that did it but i have no clue how..i say dont convert it unless u absolutely have to it'd ruin it

al

[Manny55]

Do not convert it to a 4 wheeler whatever you do. I heard that they cant handle for trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro when you do that.

they handel awesome if u do it right...if u wanna convert a 185 3 wheeler u need a 185 front end...if u dont it will suck at handeling...my freind has a 185 honda 3 wheeler engine in a 185 suzuki 4 wheeler frame and it will smoke my other freind when he rides his 185 suzuki original 4 wheeler...i find 3 wheelers are geared better then 4 wheelers but thats just me..converting it would be a waste tho

[honda200]

well i have decided to sell the trike, the dirt bike, i am buildin a mini bike with a 3 and half briggs and stratton and then the tri moto out back, then hopefully have enough money for a quad, the reason is, i just went on some LITTLE trails my dad goes on while on the back of my friends quad, my god!!!! not even a 350X could make it through the little hole!! lol, so, i am lookin into a quad, the world of 3 wheelers will still live on without me in it

Thanks to everyone that took the time to reply to this thread and look up info for me, thanks again, talkin to all of you was great.

Curtis

P.S. how much do you think i can get for my 200X?? new rear plastics, new rear bearings, starts up in 2 kicks cold, aluminum rims, about 65% tread left on rear tires, about 80% on front, looks sharp

Wheel spacers do make a big difference on a 200x. FYI your bolt circle is 4x110 mm. You'll see a big improvement in stability with them.

Yay, another person has sold out. Whatever, if you get a quad, ONLY get a suzuki LT500R (AKA QUADZILLA) or a LT250R. But for gods sake dont get anything else! Im staying with my trike till the end!

Don't be so harsh man; I understand what that pressure from dad is like (more like he tells you have have to do it). Great get an LT500R, they have nice strong swingarms (my friends 500 swingarm has like 4 big cracks in it). And what's wrong with the TRX250R, Banshee (well I can think of some for that one), and a lot of the newer high revving/high output 4 strokes? I guess I'm being kinda mean too, sorry if I am.

[honda200]

well guys, lots of good deals i have seen, not scooped any up yet, lol, just waitin for the right one, but an LT500 Quadzilla would be nice, lol, no way, i aint going to own another 2 stroke!!
