My first trike - ATC 200S

[DohcBikes]

The sticker on the frame says when it was built, not the model year. There is a stamped vin on the neck. The tenth digit is a code to the year. Post the tenth digit.

Regarding the gear pattern of ATC200S's - 1984 was a down shift model. 1985 and 1986 were both up shift patterns

If the tank and frame are different years - might wanna check the motor number - many other motors fit into these bikes - like ATC200, ATC185, ATC185S

They do say the model year. And right next to it it will say the production date.

Ya I suppose it does but those stickers count for nothing relative to the vin.

Officially got my tires in! Dismounted the old ones and cleaned the rims. One had some nasty hardened bead sealer of something in it and it was horrible to clean and smelled like sewage haha. Should be painting the rims soon (has been raining the last few days) and I'll get the tires mounted up. Should be riding by next weekend!

I'll check that production date soon. The trike is at my friends place like 30 mins away (sadly I live in an apartment complex and have no space for toys ). Should be there monday night for a few.

It's alive! first test drive tonight and it went well! needs some tweaking with the carburetor still. But the tires are awesome so far. Get some pics up tomorrow

P.S. Shifts down. Made 2/84

Nice score!! I cut my teeth as a young whipper snapper on these old bone crushers. My first one was a 185... You been bit by the bug,next is a 200x, then be lookin for a 350x and or 250r to add to the stable...

[REBEL4X4]

Some pics of the progress before tires were all mounted. Re-painted the frame and just about everything else that was black. Made a huge difference in overall appearance.

Looks good, she'll be fun to ride this winter in the snow. Seems to be coming too quick this year.

[REBEL4X4]

Thanks! Definitely should be a good time
