I have a great 250ES that I use for everything..work, play, trails, EVERYTHING!

I thinik I want to get a sport ATC (Honda, of course) just to play on. Take on rides, go to the lake etc.

I don't want to restore just have a good mechanical decent looking trike. My question is, which will I be happiest with, a 200X or a 250SX. or others?

My main concern is availabilty of parts at a fair price.

Any thoughts?

Sounds like an SX would suit you pretty good.

Well the SX is a great all around trike if you like the utility side of them. It can work just as hard as the big red but yet has enough to play on some hills or jumps. But if you are looking for a clutch based trike, I would hit the 350x. Its a super dependable trike and super fast and sporty. So just depends on what you are wanting out of it.

A 250SX isn't going to be THAT much different from what you have now and a 200x might be a little small. I say 350x if you can find one at a decent price or a 250R if you want a real rush.

Forgot to tell you I definitely want a 4-stroke. I agree with dammit. My friend has an sx and they are just about the same (very close as you all know).

I have had a 200E and the size was fine. I don't mind shifting and I think I would like to have a 200X. My concern is parts. Are they available?

1983-1985 200x parts are pretty much a dime a dozen. Very easy to find just about everything.

Sounds like that's my choice.

I think you'll like a 350x alot more. taller, better suspension, six speed, and best of all, fast.

Yeah. The difference between the SX and 350X is like night and day. So much roomier to sit on, and in my opinion more comfy. And the suspension on the X is about 2 times more heavy duty than that of the SX. Comparing the suspension of the X to that of the SX is kind of like putting a lightweight boxer up against a heavyweight champion.
