1st gears and 2nd gears ?

[muddyatc200guy]

I just bought a 1983 honda atc 200 and it has a seperate gear knob by the shifter. I was wondering, what is that for?

Hi-lo range tranny. You sir, have a Big Red.

cool you got a 200e! those are bad ace for muddin and pullin stuff..and with the right set of tires..you can float!

It has to be - the only other 200 available that year was the ATC200, and that had a single range tranny only.

Are you talking about that thing by the shifter that clicks everytime you shift?

[Mike_Ham_250R]

But other than that you DO have a 200e.... get pics

[muddyatc200guy]

I am 100 percent positve its only an atc 200 thats what it says on the vin number and everything is original. but i will have pics in a couple of days to show.

if it is a 200e they are great.. i never get stuck in mine, goes along good too. and the lever would be to switch into low range and high range.. if not its just an inicator for what gear you are in.
