    Question Handle bar height of a 1986 Honda ATC 185?

    Anyone know the Handle bar height and rear axle width of a 1986 Honda ATC 185?
    I need to figure if it will fit in my 1996 Ford explorer with the seats folded down.
    I can get it for the price of a case of beer but I need it to fit into my truck.
    Cheers!

    Take the tires off and twist the handlebars down and you should be good. I put one plus a atc70 in the back of a 1988 Mercury Tracer doing this. And the hatch was closed. It was tight but it worked.

    Not to be a stickler, but they only made the 185s' from 81 to 83. But yea you might even get by with folding down the handle bar and letting the air out of the tires.
    1. 83 185s: (the money pit) xr200 cam, 200cc cylinder, 10.25:1 piston, 83 250r front end, 450r hubs, full suspension
    2. 85 Big Red 250es: in pieces
    3. 85 200m

    4. 00 Polaris Magnum 325 2x4: stays broke
    5. 02 Yamaha Wolverine 350 4x4: trail bike

    The 185 was made in 80 not the 185s. But I see now he was asking about the 185 not the 185s. But regardless neither were made in 86. So whoever is selling it to him is wrong. If the year is right it's going to be 200 or bigger. If the size is right then it will be an 80.
