Just wanted to share a recent purchase to add to my riding pleasure. 84 200es. Solid runner and looks pretty decent. Haven't touched a thing yet.

This is the year that I get a bit more involved with my ATC's and going to get my feet wet in servicing them. I really want to learn this year.

Here's to a great 2021, God only knows this year has to be a better one! Ride safe boys N girls!

Pretty nice looking machine. They are the cream of the crop when it comes to hard tails.

Thanks. I must be getting old cause the thought of using reverse puts a smile on my face. :)

I'm right there with you. The E start is sweet too. I was going to put some mud tires on my 250ES until I rode it with the old knobbies that were on it when I bought it. I made it from my garage to the street and thought "Nope. These things ride like a Cadillac. No mud tires for me!".The bonus for me is that the Cheng Shin knobbies actually climb rocks in the mountains really well too.

Love my '84 200es. It was the one that started my 3 wheel addiction. The Cadillac of my fleet. Enjoy the ride.

I was wondering how some of those mudders ride. I'd love to get them but driving this beast around is like floating on a cloud. :)
