I think they are the same engine, but don't quote me on that. You really cant go wrong with picking up the fourtrax (for a good price), they are good machines anyway's.

If it's a 84, it's a 200.

The 250 came out in 85.

no joke thats what i thought. i asked the guy but he keeps telling me its a 250. i was thinking this because its electric start only. can you pop start these? thanks

Have him give you the VIN from the frame. Will be on the front of the frame between the front tires for either model. Once you have that go here: http://decodemyvin.webs.com

There is a 200SX quad...but I don't believe it was made in '84.

200sx came out in 86.

Use Rob's VIN decoder, as he suggested.

84 trx200 is the same as the 84 big red 200 shaft drive i belive. i think its totaly different that the Atc 250sx. if its a 85-87 trx250 it should work in a Atc 250sx.

The fourtrax 200sx is totally different from the fortrax 200... they made a shaft drive fourtrax 200 and 250 and chain drive fortrax 200.

trikes4life is right on the trx200 shaft drive is the same as the bigred 200 shaft drive... My grandfather has a trx200 utility quad that's shaft drive with H-L-R i think I cant remember.

Looks like this http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e144/derrickdrew17/e75abed9.jpg

I think the only year it was made was 1984 if im not mistaken.


Four Trax 200sx like the one I have looks like this
