Noob here - Just picked up a trike!

[3 Wheel Burnin']

Howdy all,

I recently acquired a 1984 ATC 200S, for free! I have a few questions to start and am sure many more will follow. All 3 tires are shot & I just won a front tire with rim on ebay ($5.50+25 to ship) & need 2 rear tires. Was looking at a few different brands, looking for something that will work in both the mud & hard pack dirt of New Mexico. Here are a couple of links to some I am interested in - maybe some of you have tried or use 'em:

Here are a few photos of my new trike! I have been wanting one for many years, had a 185 back in the day...

It had been sitting for about 2 years with about 1/4 tank of old gas in it. After about 20 pulls & messing with the choke it fired up. It runs very strong, looks like it was hardly used minus the trashed tires. I am at least able to ride it for about 3-5 minutes till the front tire is too soft to ride

The previous owner said his friend gave it to him but only after swapping out the near new tires on it for a friend & replacing them with these you see .... If anyone has a pair of rear tires they are looking to get rid of please let me know! I am also looking for front & rear racks.

What other wheels will fit on a 200S? There are so many sub models but I am not sure what bolt patterns will work on others.

Thanks for any help!
By the way I did search thru a lot of the threads & yes they have been helpful!

Damn man that is NICE and a hell of a deal, good job. I would stick with the closest stock tires you cant get,I tried a lot and none work great. Maybe some one else will know.

Please don't drill those fenders for a rack. They are mint! Pick a brand of ohtsu tires out 

Thanks! Always happy with free (duh who isn't!) & I seem to have some luck as I got a free 1984 Fourtrax TRX250 back in January, another minty, perfect plastic bike.... That one just needs to be put back together. Here's a couple pics, first photos - as it was found, in a building under years of bird crap & tons of dirt!






These are after I started to fix & clean it up





As far as tires I need something that will get me around, we live in a very remote area with nothing but dirt & rocky terrain. The mud here is unbelievable when the monsoon's show up not to mention the trails & roads in the winter snows... I want to ride it so I am going to find a beefier tire for it. I am leaning towards the Mud Lites and am ready to buy but just not sure...

I didn't realize the fender needed to be drilled, not happening if that is the case. The front rack just bolts on?
I have seen some OHTSU tires on ebay, damn they are expensive! I need a mud/dirt tire...Being 2wd it will be a challenge around here.

Thanks all for the input!

These look like what is on my Fourtrax, will a 23" tire work without trouble?

WELL... I just bought the OEM OHTSU'S! $180 for tires & a manual shipped.... STOKED! Thanks so much for sharing that link, I have used Beatrice before with my CT90, forgot about them

[tripowersport]

Ya That's a hell of a deal I think.

What is the word on the 2 piece rims? I didn't realize I had them on my trike... I got the used front & tire wheel I ordered & am wondering what I have to do if anything to be sure the bead seats & the tire does not leak. I am guessing the rears are 2 piece also?
