    For pulling or working, I'd rather have a 200es over a 250es any day of the week.
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    Not me!!My 250es out performs my 200es hand downs.I still love the 200 though and it has its place/use's

    On topic,from what the weather guy's said were supposed 6-14 inches and 1/4-3/4 inch of ice.They keep changing it though

    Did you ever have a 250es or a 250sx by a 200es? The 250's outsize the 200's by alot and they got rid of that whole low and high gears with a simple super low first gear and the 5ft gear is an overdrive override? gear. Also, you have 50cc more. However, the way I see it is that whatever gets the job done is good enough.

    Yes, I own a 200es, and an 85 250es. And I can tell you from experiance that, while the 250 is the easier ride, and is faster, and better in many ways, for pulling my 84 200es will outpull it.


    If you don't beleive me, then fine, but you don't own my trikes, thats like asking me exactly how fast they go.


    And I never said I prefered a 200es over a 250 completely, just in certain fields.

    Sorry, I didn't catch that you mentioned for working or pulling, and I didn't know that you had a 250es. They are all good, but there's a reason why the 250es and sx were made until 87 and even 88(the es) and the 200es was pulled off the lineup. I guess since it didn't have rear suspension it allowed it to be a better pulling/towing machine.
