Hate to say it but have to thin the heard.


Picked up a brand new sportsman and need the space for the new utility quad.


So now the question is what one to send down the road.


first canidate

1984 200s meyers plastic, two motors, extra forks, extra rear axles, two sets of rear tires, goki electric start. (My Old Daily Rider)

Second canidate

1983 200e Big Red. plastics faded and a crack in one of the rears. Runs like a champ, first pull everytime, electric start works no battery. Front forks need new sliders. (Was bought to play in the mud, Drag stuff around etc)

Third canidate

1985 250es Big Red. Shafty with suspension (good shocks), runs descent. plastic is beat, starter motor is dead, Aftermarket hand levers for reverse and choke etc. No key switch. Brand new Dirt devil tires. Random pop sound from the rear once ina while. Hondaline Speedometer. (was bought as a replacement to the 200s and the 200e)


I'm still up in the air on which one to send down the road. Mind you the new bike has 4wd, hi low auto tranny, suspension like a cadillac, winch, the only downside is its a 450 so its not a rocket ship, but will easily hit 60.

I say keep the 250es, its the ultimate in trike utilities, sell the other ones and get the 250 lookin and running sharp, it will probably go places your new 4x4 wont!

Yes keep the 250es.....even though I am alittle biased on that decision. I think its even better than the sportsman.

I agree with Syko. The 250's are awsome trikes and are great for trails. Also it has suspension. I fI had to get rid of One i'd choose the 200s. Their bith hard tail 200's but the e has hi/lo etc. But you also have alot of extra parts for the 200s. Hard choices.

Id let go of the 84 200s, but not before removing the Goki and selling that separate.
