    Question Big wheels & Fat cats at TF '13?

    How many of you plan on bringing these often overlooked machines to TF? I will have mine providing I can make it (I'm doing everything I can to ensure this) maybe even a drag or mx class for these? A BW/Fat Cat only ride? Post up your thoughts and wether or not you are bringing one!

    I know there are several members that have them. I think it would be cool to have a MX class for them.

    I think it would be awesome to beat my TR200 around a track. Even if it is just for shits and giggles

    You know, Whoops might be a bad idea with the subpar suspension on these....

    I put my snap ring on the highest setting to tighten up the rear shock and plan on swapping to a 200X front end with disc at some point

    My Fat Cat will be there for sure. It takes minimal trailer space so it allows me to bring 6 machines instead of 5. I did suggest an exhibition MX Class for 2 wheelers. It was met with mixed reviews.... "It's not bikefest"!! Still, I argue that it IS an all terrain cycle.

    Side note: I have been out twice this winter in 6-8 inches of snow on the Cat. What a blast!!! The TR in TR200 must stand for "traction".

    I had mine on some ice and that did not go too well, but it chugs right through everything else!

    I don't think there would be an issue running one or two races with them, the people who don't want them there are jealous they don't own one and hate being reminded of this

    Big Specht and I are bringing our BW 200s for sure and hopefully our BW 80s. We have been hoping some people would bring BWs and Fat Cats so we could have a group ride. BWs and Fat Cats are kind of the brother of 3wheelers so they should fit in LOL!

    I finally got ahold of a pdf version of the bw200 service manual. If you need a copy, pm me your email address.
