Hey I'm posting around to see what kind of response I get, but I'm thinkin a New Year's Eve ride down off County Rd. would totally kick. If my 200x isn't perfect I'll have something to ride anyhow, and I'm tired of sittin on my arse or with family on New Year's. I say we get some girls, a cooler, and a bunch of fireworks and other dangerous stuff to blow up and go down there and have a ball. Anyone up for it? I also think it'd be cool if we could pull it off with just trikes. LMAO but I guess it'd be nice to have a Raptor around or something to carry our cooler. J/k. The more threewheelers, the merrier, but everyone interested please respond.

Hey man you can't go wrong with a 200e. I've got one and those things are mud monsters. You can't beat em. And you know, I dunno if I'd rather have a larger, heavier 250es or not, because when if I get stuck, or if it dies, or I get water in the snorkel, I just get off and it floats to the top, so it's easy to pull to the side, and then I just blow off the filter and crank it back up. This happened one time when I was driving it through deep water when it flooded a few years ago in my neighborhood. It was so deep that I had to water wheelie to keep it going. Well I got into some deep stuff and some woman walking in the shallow water on the sidewalk saw it die, and started talking mess. I pulled it over onto the sidewalk, and let it drip off a bit, cranked it up, and then nearly knocked her over with the wake I made as I went by. Those things are great!
