Default 200x, 250r, or 350x???????

Haha, this is gettin old with me postin all these messages about what bike i should get. I've narrowed it down to these three. Which one is the most reliable? Which is the funnest to ride? Which will get me in and out of any place i want to go, mud, big hills, etc.? Which one has the best suspension? Which one would be able to smoke a blaster in a drag race? Which is the best on trails? And which one handles the best? Everyone who reads this post please give me ur own opinion about this. I need a bunch of peoples views on this topic.

you should just ride them all and pick which one YOU like... ANYTHING will beat a blaster [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] jk ... nobody can really help you unless you give more details.... weight, hight, riding style, terrain. you know the basic things that determine what is best for you in OUR opinions.. My pick would the the 350x just because there is more displacement than the rest...although the 250r is a really nice quad, reliable, and FAST!!! ride a couple, find a good deal. buy it and enjoy, good luck

I have owned all of them. To me the 350x was the best overall trike because it has a little beter suspention and it has some power too, but if you just love that adrenaline feeling and a racy trike with great suspention then get the 250R. All 3 of them will beat a blaster, but it will be clsoe with the 200x but with the right rider it will beat the blaster. The 200x is an awsome trike also. They just WONT die. I have put mine threw alot of beatin, and it dosnet stun it. I have been suprised with the reliablity with all of them.

I say 350x. I have ridden all three and like it the best. I hate 2 strokes and the 200x doesn't have enough power. JMO

Throw out the 200X if you're looking at a 350X or a 250R. The 350X will develop it's horsepower from low RPM on through the mid range and then some. The 250R like most 2 strokes needs higher RPM's to stay in it's powerband. I think the 350X is better suited for tight trail riding and mud. The 250R is better suited for open terrain and dunes where you can take advantange of the mid/high RPM powerband. Don't get me wrong the 350X is an excellent wide open terrain trike but just not as good as the 250R. The same could be said about the 250R also. It is also an excellent trail riding bike but doesn't have the low torque of a 350X for those tight hills and mud. Either way you can't really go wrong because they are the best two trikes ever made IMO. I'm sure there are some Tri-Z and Tecate riders who would beg to differ. I personally have two 350X's and wouldn't mind trading one of them for a 250R just so I could have the best of both worlds. Good luck on your choice for a 3 wheeler. Besides "everybody" knows that Trikes are better than Quads.

350x if you like to cruise and have some fun once and a while

250r if you want something with endless potential and want to haul *** everywhere.

I will admit, my R isnt half as fun to just cruise and site see on as a 4 stroke.

Ok, theres a 1986 350x with top end rebuilt, new tires, and comes with 2 extra motors in my local trader for $1450. I'm gonna try and see if my dad can get it soon so its not sold when he finally agrees to get it.
