Yeah that would be a joke.... anyway-- Now that I have your attention here's my real question :-D Where can I find a good pipe for an 85 200x? Is it worth getting?

EBAY!
Atleast thats where I got my 350X or your local cycle trader. As far as it being good I dont know Ive heard good things about them. I guess it just depends on what you want it for also Your size(weight+height). I was looking into getting one but I went with the 350x instead Im 6'2 215. If your a smaller person then it should do just fine it would probably be fine for a larger rider also, I dont know myself. I have priced them anywhere between $500 (decent trike) - $800 (really nice) I would look somewhere in that range I paid $1300 for my 350X. I think I might have paid a little too much but it was close to where I live and I didnt have to travel to pick it up. Im sure other that have a 200X can help you out a little more.

A nice 200X is worth more than $500. A totally hammered running 200X might be $500 but a decent one is worth $800. A really clean 200X is easily worth a grand. A 350X varies from 1200 to 1600. At least these are the prices in Southern California.

Lemme guess. You had a Contour? I agree, those are junk. My buddy had one and it was at the dealer more than it was in his driveway.
P.S. Chevys break down too. I got rid of a Cavalier about 6 months ago. That thing was CONSTANTLY needing repairs. And I don't even want to talk about my '94 Grand Am with the Quad Junk motor....Grrrrrrrr........... Every car manufacturer has their good and bad models though.

Not to start a discussion about Ford vs Chevy on a 3 wheeler website but I have owned 2 Ford Rangers and now for the last 4 years I have had a 2000 F150 supercab. That truck has not had one problem, not even a rattle. Look at consumer reports. Ford has always beat GM on quality results over the last 5 years. My friend and my father are die hard Chevy and they have finally given up becasue of all the problems they had - fuel pumps , ignition systems and alternators going out on trucks with less than 40K. You name it. I admit Chevy's are more powerful but man....way to many headaches.

I'm sorry. That was way out of line. Ford and Chevy's are both good. I'm just having a rough day at work. I wish I was out drinking beers in the desert riding my 3 wheeler.

How mcuh are you willing to spend on a pipe. i would get a rmc steel or a dg stager 2 or 3. DO NOT GET A COBRA. i got one and hate it. one no spark aresstor(sp) and they are loud as ****. i am thinking about getting a brand new stock muffler from parts fish, but for the price of that i could get a dg stage 3 . how does that dg sound on the trike muddukie??????
hey dont be hating fords so of us have feelings

Hey now, I just bought a '94 Grand Am with one of them Quad Junk motors, lol. Was your the SOHC or DOHC version? Cause I read that the SOHC versions were truly junk, for pow'r and reliability.

my dad has a '98 chevy 1/2 ton 4x4 pickup with 230,000 miles on it. That thing still runs great and the only thing he ever replaced on it was a fuel pump at 150,000. Still gets 17 MPG too. Just gotta change the fluids when they say to.

I had the SOHC. I could sit here and make a whole list of the parts I had to replace. :oops:
I replaced the '94 Grand Am with a '96 Grand Prix with a 3100 V6. I haven't had any problems out of it yet.

Mine's a GT with the DOHC HO :twisted: 175HP. 3100s are nice too. My dad has a '96 Ceira with a 3100 V6. That thing moves.

This one has strayed way off topic, and is being locked.
