    Talking Is it Possible to mod the ATC 200es to a quad?

    Does anyone know if the ATC 200ES can be modified to a quad? Was told this is possible. Would appreciate any info anyone could share.

    In all honesty mate, that is just a dumb idea. The 200es is fine in its trike form but you just need a bit of body language to drive it, its the same with all trikes. You would be better off just selling the 200es to somebody who appreciates it as it is in its trike form. With the money you make from the trike use that to invest in a quad, maybe a trx200 (the cousin of the atc200es).

    Its just not worth it in the long run, it would look ****, handle crappy AND it would be a quad

    Mate, why would you even bother??? If you want a quad, go buy one. Don't destroy a beautiful 3 wheeled machine, and turn it into a 4 wheeled pansy ride.

    The money involved to do this is far more then the money invovled to go buy used quad of the same caliber. While the trike now feels like it has planty of power I'm sure after you add all the conversion weight its gonna feel underpowered.

    I think if you look in the quad central there is a sticky on quad conversions.

    Smokinwrench iis right. This was something people did in the late 80's when trikes were cheap and quads were expensive. The kits alone sold for $1600-$1800. Now you can by a TRX200 or TRX250 which are the quad version of your trike for less than the cost of the kit, and still have your trike left over.

    Dumb idea. Not only would you have a 4 wheeler,it would be be a crappy 4 wheeler with no resale value.Sell it and buy a golf cart.

    dude, you picked the wrong place to ask that question. just sell it to someone who appreciates 3 wheelers and use the money to buy a trx 200. it's basically the 4 wheeled version.
