    Having to get rid of my 200x...im gonna cry

    Guys my riding has recently changed from tight wooods and mx tracks to open fire lanes and dirt roads. Due to a recent family crisis me getting a job and modding my 200x has become impossible. Hard times cause for drastic measures. I am going to trade my pristine condition 200x for any running condition 250r. As loyal as I have always been to my fellow 200x's riders, I am going to have to change to keep up with the bikes i ride with. This seems the only thing to do........sooo if you know anybody with one just lying around send him my way. Its weird how we get emotionally attatched to a 3 wheeled hunk of metal.

    whats the point? .. your gonna do a straight up trade for a air cooler r? ... that is gonna **** more gas in ... why bother, to me there is no point... Drastic measures in my opinion would be selling the X to feed the family .. not trading it for a R ?!?!?!

    Feeding the family is not the problem. But for the next 2 years my family is going to be spending alot of time at the hospital. Me being the oldest means I have some responsibilities for my younger brothers and sisters. But seriously man there was some sarcasm in that post. And the point is that I need a faster bike. What does use more gas have to do with anything? Both bikes use so little gas its insignificant and i only ride on the weekends soo its not like im gonna be breaking the bank. The only thing i'm wondering about is why I bother answering to a post like that^^^^^^

    well cause see I really like my 200x and I dont have time for a job right now to mod it out. Because I ride with a banshee and a couple two stroker dirtbikes. and the little x just isn't cutting it. Check the classifieds the post has been in for a few hours. I just posted over here to let the guys know, plus more people read this then the classifieds.

    Wouldn't matter if you did mod it out. You weren't going to keep up with them anyway. An R is the right way to go if you want to stay on 3 wheels (or a tecate or tri-z but parts for the R's are easier to come by).

    Sorry to hear about your sister. My father had a battle of a somewhat similar nature a few years ago and won. My best wishes to your family.

    Thanks , Its gonna be tough for the next few years but we'll get through it.

    Now all I need to do is wait for the right deal to come along. Hopefully somebody is looking for a good condition 200x and has a r they would be wiling to trade.

    You might have better luck ebaying the X and just buying an R in cash.
