    Reliving my youth

    Hello, in the last few years I found myself searching for a 200x and love this site, from NE Iowa. I can't believe how the values of these machines have skyrocketed. I sold my Polaris scrambler and am looking for a 200x because every four wheeler to me is like riding a craftsman lawnmower. Hope I can be some help around here. Thanks Bryan

    Yeah, I know what you mean, back in the day I drug home every 110 and 90 I could get my hands on. My nephews still run them today and it got me thinking I need one, so the search begins. Thanks

    Picked up a 85 200x auto last night, took her out for a spin , boy does that bring back the memories. The sound, sliding around corners, shifting again. No more polaris, this is the way its supposed to be. Still smiling.

    Bill is right!!! My slippery slope was pretty steep for the first year or so! I went looking for a 250r like I had in my teens and came home with the R and a 350x. Now I have 6. Trying to level out a little now, haha. Welcome back to the trikes!!!

    I know what your saying, picked up a 200x and now I find myself wanting a 250sx but during the search I wouldn't turn away a 350x or big red or 200s....this is going to get out of control. Bryan

    It is definitely an addiction. I kept the atc dream alive for almost 20 years after 87 and only a few people even cared that you restored a prime atc. Sold my trikes in early 2000's,Bought all quads. Now with the all the new interest in trikes ,I'm back to 8 trikes and only 1 quad (don't tell anybody lol).

    Bought a spare 200x engine last night. Now I just need a roller, maybe just a frame to get started. This is going down hill fast!! Lol
