    Can someone help me I.D. this trike?

    Hey ladies and gents, I have an opportunity to pick up an '86 ATC 200 for dirt cheap.

    It has been sitting for a few years and it's currently not running. The owner knows almost nothing about it. All he knows is that it is an '86 ATC 200. From the pics he sent me of it, I am thinking it is a 200M. Can someone confirm? It would be nice to have another trike with electric start.



    Trikes:
    '81 Honda ATC 200
    '83 Honda ATC 200
    '85 Honda ATC 200M
    '86 Honda 250ES Big Red - traded

    Other toys:
    '69 Pontiac Bonneville (restoration in process)
    '71 Honda CT90 (Trail 90)
    '80 Honda XL250S
    '81 Honda CB900-C - sold

    not electric start, notice the lack of a starter on the front of the motor. Appears to be a 200s, looks pretty clean though, if the deal is right jump on it. These are very easy to work on.
    mine: 85 Honda 350x

    Aah, how stupid of me, I didn't think to look for a starter......der der. What was different about the 200S? The guy is asking $250 for it so either way it is coming home with me. I am just curious since I've never owned an S.

    a 200s has 22 inch rear tire no electric start no rack and the front forks are a little more sporty, they are also light because they don't have that stuff.parts are very cheap and easy to come by as well

    Hey, just a side note; when did Honda start using CDI units on their trikes/quads/dirtbikes instead of points?

    250$ for that bike, if you can figure out why it doesnt run, is a GREAT deal!
