it all depends on your skill/ age/ weight. if those are high, go for a 250r, or a 350x or a 200x. if medium, go for a big red, 200, 185. if low, go for a 110, or even that 125m. which eer you decide to get, tell us! :-D

plk i think that the 200x should be in the medium catigory i know many people that have learned how to ride on a 200x and as soon as you learn to ride your going to want the extra power of the 305x or 250r also a 250sx would be a good choise

I beg to differ. I have had 200x's 185's 200s's 110's 90s and a 250sx. The 250sx is a tippy trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro. Plus the 25 inch tires i had on it didnt help but they are tippier trikes than most other trikes. I wouldnt reccomend the 250sx unless you are skilled at riding trikes or at least not begining.

The SX is by no means tippy. Those 25' tires you had on there were the problem. I pretty much learned everything there is to riding on my SX and they are one of the more stable 3-wheelers ever made. My 8 & 9 year old cousins also learned on it because of that. I think the 125m is more unstable (or it may be because of my weight/size)

The 305 X is a small block like the 350X, but the 305 X is a piece of junk, and can only be overbored .030 max, and has next to now power, the 285x overpowers it also.

I love my sx, but it can be dangerous, and im 14 and we have about 16 trikes ive ridden my dad's 250es, then 110, then 125, now 250sx. Best to start small for the younger guys

Heh heh, good old SX, my "first" trike. I have a KLT 110A I got before the SX, but it never ran right so I never really "rode" it (more than like 10 mph, except once in a great while it would run right and probably had it almost topped out like 3 times). It is a tippy machine. But the 250X front end helps combat that. If I ran 20 or 18 inch tires instead of 22 my friends claim that helps a lot to make it more stable, so it will slide in corners instead of going up on twos.

200m or 200es is a nice bike. The es has reverse and hi and low range. A bonus for towing things!! The 200m only has electric start and no reverse.
