[4cfed]

iv owned this trike for 3 months, put swinger bearing it it, axle bearings, and a1st gen 200x axle.. and finnaly got to ride it today!!!!1





throwin a roost




and my favorite picture of the day!!!!




over all the 86 200x rocks!! sucks straight line not fast enough for me ( im usedto modded blasters, and air cooled 250r trikes, my 426ex quad and my old banshee..
but in the woods it was amazing!! it went sideways any time i wanted it to and would power wheelie 2nd and 3rd gears with out a problem!!
gonna get some spacers on the rear though, found my self high siding more than id like to but i never lost it and it was easy to correct, but i need a bit more width in the rear for my riding style

one more i forgot about... 1 foot wheelie

very fun but cold... old exhaust set up is shot.. made it 70 feet into the trails and the connector broke, so spend the 2 hours riding with no muffler, and no way to get the other one back on

Dude, that happened to me on my 200x. Bummer it was.

I have to agree with the Man of the thread. Love my 200x in the trails but it's a little lagging in power for wide open spaces. Amazing trikes they are though.

4cfed, I have a very nice DG exhaust that I believe is for a 2nd gen 200x. I bought it sight unseen thinking it was for a 1st gen, but it is not. I'm about 1.5 hours south of you. I can post a couple pics of of if you're interested.

wish i woulda seen this sooner, i just mailed out payment for the fmf mega max im using for my custom set up

but yeah, definatly love the 200x on trails and the river, open fields and straight aways its about as exciting as watching 2 turtles drag race,

hey 4cfed i got to agree with you my 86 200x is amazing on trails also what brand and size are your rear tires i love my 86 200x i have two tire set ups 22'' on stock 9'' rims and 18'' on 8'' rims the 18s get there faster but the 22s have a little bit more top end

[4cfed]

my rear tires are 20x11x9 chin shing ice tires, on stock rear rims, im thinkin of gettin a set of douglas rims for a 400ex with a wider off set to add a bit more width to the rear. Im running a 1st gen 200x axle with a stock sproket
iv been tossing around the idea of droppin the rear sproket down and upping the front, but i like the fact in dirt i can roost in 3rd and 4th gear with out a problem, (im a rooster lol its something i enjoy doing very much)

in all reality, due to my size i should be on a 350x or a liquid R im 5'10? 5'11"> i forget and 245 lbs. but i just love the 200x's i also love blasters, i like the small machines, there easy to 'toss around' id like to move up to a liquid R in spring or build a blaster powered 200x
