    I have joined the Big Red club!

    Well I finaly joined the Honda Big Red club, I picked up my 1983 Honda 200E on Monday. I got it from the original owner who I have know for a few years. He bought a Polaris 5 or 6 years ago but didn't want to sell the trike because he still liked using it for yard work. After it sat in the barn for the last 2 years he told me he would sell it. I charged the battery, cleaned the carb. and put in fresh gas it runs great. This one will be the start of the perminant collection.

    I'd call the police. It's obviously a child molestor.

    thats a sharp big red, its hard to find them that nice unless you get one from an older person cause they are workhorses. Would it be too personal of a guestion if i asked how much you got it for?

    Are you sure it's not an es ('84)? Either way, she looks good.
    Edit: nevermind..I just realized that the 200e has the sub-tranny like the es. Just no reverse?

    Yeah, it is the E, not the ES so it has Hi-Lo but no reverse. I wanted to set the Little Red on top of the rear rack of the Big Red but no one else was around to help lift it. Sunday I should be able o take it out for its first trail ride, the weather report calls for rain tomorrow and Sunday so it shoud be lots of fun in the mud.

    Oldshell- If you need some picks just ask, the decals are there they just have a couple of chips missing on the edges.
