200s is perfect for those conditions, just make sure to dielect greese all electrical connections including the spark plug cap

Hell yeah the 200s can handle that! Ask me how I know :naughty: The auto ..to me .. is perfect. Makes for a nice easy ride. She will climb most anything, cross most anything and if you run the air a bit low in the rear you can get a pretty soft ride too, just don't go to fast with low tire pressure around turns. Depending on water depth Just water proof the electrical and have fun!

hells yeah you cannot go wrong with a 200s. no clutching makes for a perfect trail ride. A little hard on the arse at times... but there perfect for water crossing (make sure you have a good pull starter gasket--i used silicone) and make sure your connections are tight..no loose wires cos water will stop ya dead. Have fun!

lol, mine has no recoil... so im assuming i should get one?
also where is the air intake?
one more thing..is there anyway to take off the flywheel without the special puller?

do not even drive that thing around water without a pullstart! u will screw up your stator. and as stated above use a silicone to form a seal. and make sure your pullhandle can "plug" the rope hole.

Very good all around trike . If you ever feel like it you can always stick the engine in a 200X frame and create an auto x

use a correct puller or you will damage something, JR graham has nice ones for around $30. I have a 200s with some mods and it is great for the riding you are looking to do. I have had mine almost up to the bars and up to the seat in water and it did not miss a beat. The water was much deeper than we thought. The machine was starting to float down streem even.
