Yamaha did not make a 200e Honda did. And it still didn't have reverce. Its probably a Honda 200es or a Yamaha 225dr. Does it have hi and low range also or just reverce? And does it act frozen up or just won't move once its in reverce?
Own-Honda 250es, Kawasaki kx60, Yamaha 350 warrior
Owned-one honda 350x three honda 90 s, one honda 110, one honda 185 , three honda 200e s, two honda 200s, one honda 200es, one yamaha 60, four yamaha 125 s, one yamaha 200, one yamaha 225dx , and two kawasaki 160 s, all of wich were good runing three wheelers. Also had lots of parts bikes. Also had lots of dirtbikes, 4 wheelers, gokarts, mopeds, and snowmobiles.

4 Wheels? Huh?
Sure they did..they made several models of 200e. The one you have 'redneckswamp' is likely the 200ern Yamahauler..the only 200e model I am aware of that had reverse.

The yamaha 200 has to be in 1st gear in order for it to go into reverse. Hope that helps!

Do you mean it starts to move then kicks out, or the shifter goes in and pops out without even having it move? I have seen exactly one 200ERN, not very common around here for some reason probably because we used to have like three Honda dealers back in the day.. LOL
The one i have seen belongs to a guy i did some work for, we used it to haul some wood around on his farm, i always had trouble with reverse on it as well, but it would go into reverse then give it some gas and start to move then pop out, it would usually do that a couple times then stay in, never could figure out why.

Are you sure you are squeezing the red handle on the lever as you try to put it in reverse? Also there is an adjustment on
the linkage. Just back off the small nuts on both sides of the adjuster and then turn the adjuster accordingly.
