    You can bring tire presure down for traction.

    In the winter I would wake up early in the morning and go shovel my drive way, and my neighbors driveways, load the snow in a tobbogan tied behind the trike and spread it around lightly to go boggin through.

    Re-jetting for winter is very important with a 2-stroke. You need to jet richer in the winter.

    I used to love winter riding on my 200x by the way. Out of all the trikes I've ridden in the snow, my old modded 200x with the stock tires on it was the most fun. Here's some pics.

    winter rides

    I ride more hrs in the winter cuz I have more free time. I have a trail out behind the house, probably nearly a mile loop. Everytime it snows I go out and break the trail open. Get off the trail into 3 foot of powder and you are SCREWED. but the hard packed trail turns into an icy highway. we have a blast as long as the temps don't head south of zero
