Its a trx200sx quad motor amongst a list of other things, aka "Super X" the rolling chassis is really the only atc parts. Quads make fantastic parts bikes. The rack is also from the donor quad and I was amazed at how it fit on the 1st gen X fenders. It will take some mods to fit how I want it. I will need to drill the fenders and machine a bracket to mount it flat like in the pics. Right now it is just resting on the fenders.

Rack looks good! If you put it on please add new photos.

I will. Thought it was gonna be a little easier to install. I have to machine some brackets.

it depends on if your only trail riding or going to hit the track. if track, no rack. if trail, Rack that puppy.
Can I suggest something? Get some fork boots on the forks. they are not there for looks. they actually help keep find dust from getting into the fork seals and ruining them and doing internal damage over time. for $25 you can get a set supped off ebay and save you hundreds in bills. I took mine off because they were torn and knew I was building a new suspension for the 200x. but you need them for this trike.

I second this it looks great but i learned the hard way about racing through the woods with a rack. Got back to the house ripped it off and sold it for 5 bucks and haven't had a trike with one since. Not even my big red has one lol

I do plan on putting some but just haven't had the time. This one is quick but it's a trail rider for now. I did pick up a roller and basket case that I can almost turn into a racer. We will just have to see.

If you mostly stand up your trikes on their rear to wash them, that won't work too well with the rack.
That is the only thing I can think of that could be a drawback.
Rack it!!
