    The frames are different. Also the 185s had a compression release and I don't think the regular 185 did, but not sure. The rear fenders were different. I think the 185s had higher compression than the 185 and I think originally the cams were different. I think honda later changed or superceded the parts numbers though.

    i guess that would explain why my 185 frame weights almost as much as my 185s complete bike lol

    185 was only made in '80 (orange paint!) and pretty much became the 81-83 ATC 200. 81-83 185s is a completely different trike.

    i'm sure 's' means sport, i had a 200s and in the brochure they insist that it is stripped down for a reliable play machine, but who wants to play on a hardtail?

    When I had my first trike in the 70s, hardtails were all that there was! Heck, Honda wasn't even making the 110 yet!!!

    ATC185 models became the ATC185S in 81, "S" denoting sports, new tank design, 1 piece rear fender, round headlight replaced with rectangular unit, tail light and rear carry rack revised. Brake drum enclosed within cover plate, minor difference in rear axle.
