Well it has been a long time since I have had a trike. I joined this forum ten years ago when I was 14 and only had an 85 atc 110. Well needless to say priorities came up and I've been trikeless for far to long. I have a 3 year old daughter and a wife now. We are buying a house and in the garage sits an old beat up trike. I didn't get a chance to look at it long but it is a 200x with white fenders. What's left of them anyways. I am assuming its an 86. He says it runs great but its stuck in 2nd gear. He said he never messed with it after that. I'm hoping its just a stripped shifting peg. What else can it be? Oh and the guy said if I wanted it its one less thing he has to get rid of. I definately want to restore it this winter but don't know which way to go. Stock custom or in between. What after market parts are available anymore. Thanks in advance

:welcome:welcome back ,:wondering if its a 1986-87 , it might be worth restoring mostly stock ,if you can find the parts , if its the more commen 83-85 200x then parts are easyer to find and there is more aftermarket stuff out there, so it comes down to how much $$$:naughty: and how fast vs reliable do you want the build to be.. the 200x is a great all round trike :Bounce,if a little underpowered in the sand, deep mud ,step hills ,:rolleyes: but for most riders it will do most any type riding you want, stock they are very relieble,:pics::pics::D

I meant it as a question asking if that's not it what else can it be. I know it can be something else but has anyone had a similar problem

I know, but that's like saying 'What's the worst that can happen', or in my area 'Y'all watch this and hold my beer'.

Well I got the broken piece out however I don't know what it is. It goes around the star gear to select the gear. Any idea what it could be and where I can find one. It has hb5 stamped on it
