    200E is a little lower geared than most... and no rear suspension (atleast not on the 83 models) Is a great trike but not the fastest in the fleet... maybe 45 if you wind it way too much downhill... lol.. but it does great in snow and mud.

    i looked at a 1983 Honda 200E a while back...it was trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro the swing arm was welded...poorley at that and the chain always fell off...the compression was weak and he wanted $600 for it...around here u can get a good running trike for about $800.

Hardly any air in the tires helps though.Doesnt do hills very well because the clutch is going and its hard to downshift when your going uphill. I have a spare engine with a good clutch. Is the clutch hard to change in a 185? It looks like you might need a special tool????
    yep special tool.
