Need some info on a 1987 200x

[Mattyp7]

I am in the process of picking up an 1987 200x for a good price. My only concern with this machine is if it will fit me reasonably well. I am 6 foot 1 and about 165lbs. My previous machines have been a 1994 Warrior/1989 quadracer and I still have my 85 250sx trike. I am looking for a sport trike and this thing came along. Is the 200x bigger than my 250sx or should I keep looking for a 250r/350x/tri-z?

Thanks for any info you guys can pass along.

Buy it by all means.

87's are fairly rare, your size and weight will fit fine. I had 2 of them at one time (86's though) and am 6' -190lbs and had no problems with them.

The size should be larger then SX overall because of more suspesion travel but the ergonomics between bars, seat and pegs I'm sure about.

What shape is it in? How much? Any 87 in real nice shape should fetch at least 12-1500 I would think. Even more if it's really nice!

I'm 6'4" and 215# and I liked my 86 200x. The only place it wasn't that good was on top end in the sand. I couldn't keep up with some of the other bikes I rode with. They are great in the woods and tight trails though.
