    Newbie

    Hey... I'm Rick "Ziggy"W.
    I'm from Indiana and I'm axiously waiting to pick up a 82 Honda 200, Sat. am.
    Reluctantly I have to admit I don't know squat about them, but ready and willing to do what it takes.

    I'm already enjoying what I've read.

    welcome to trike'n.

    the only advice I give to people new to 3 wheelers is, dont put your feet down!

    I suppose many have seen the pic from Ebay. I talked with the guy on several occasions and got a good feel for it.
    I hope (and really think) it's as good as he says.

    We'll see.

    and dont forget the timing chain adjuster, most people let those things get way to noisy.

    Looks like it's in real nice shape. My first trike was an '82 200 and I had a lot of fun on it. Those old Hondas can really take a beating! They are a blast in the snow. Just don't go too crazy with a trike that has no suspension except for the tires.

    I used to run over my leg at least once every time I took mine out.
