I'm not familure with these at all. Is that the same 2 stroke motor that came on the Yamaha IT 175 enduro?

Normally I don't care what would beat what but would this blow away a Honda 200X?

It looks so light and being a 2 stroke I would think it would have no problem doing so.

Are they pretty reliable?

I was also wondering this, I know 4 stokes last longer motor wise, but how would a 175 two stoke be power wise as compared to honda 4 stokes?

my 175 will smoke a 200x (only if Im running 22's) When I was a kid, the kid down the road had a 175 and it would beat all 200x challengers in the drags, but out on the trail the 200X was king.

Hmmmm.. wonder if Yamaha had put some real suspension up front and added some rear suspension. How's does yours with that Pro-Tec rear suspension match up? You'll have to race some people at Trikefest this year!

Just something about that little 175 that I like.

What would be cool is bore, port, boyesen reed it, pipe it, up the carb size and slap it in a 200X.

It's a 2 stroke and for a 125 I'm sure it's quite peppy.

How fast, ahhhh who cares, just buy the thing!

I'm sure (a wild guess) it's in the neiborhood of 45-50 and that's the fastest I'd want to go on one of those.

How much for it?

I think your pushing it at 45-50... my guess is around 37-40... but who the heck cares ITS A TRIKE... whoa i think my house just got struck by lighting!
