I found one for $850 it is claimed to be in good condition... I haven't seen it. Is that too much? and if not is the 200x a good trike for a 210lbs 6'2" rider?

 

200x might be a little weak for someone your size. But they generally where good machines. I would check on the '87 part, as I believe those where somewhat rare. I have never seen one, and I've been riding honda trikes since the early 80's If it is clean and runs well, $850 is not a bad price. You need to really look these machines over for worn/broken,cobbled together parts and beat the selling price down accordingly-if you are willing,and know how, to do the repairs yourself. If your counting on getting a banged up machine fixed at a dealer, go buy a newer quad.

 

That would be a great deal for a 1987 200X.

The '86 and '87 models are highly soughty after by diehard ATC fans because of it's power and handling for such a light machine.

It was definatly the best fourstroke ATC and wont have any problem smoking most of the bigger sport quads made today in a drag race.......IF you can keep the front end down.

 

If you think that 87 200X is that powerful and fast try to get ya a 350X, they will smoke 400ex's left and right no problem. Fastest 4 stroke made until the introduction of the ds 650.

 

Very mild mods to a 350x will stomp a DS or a Raptor in a drag,provided you can find one with a good head on it.

I have a 87 200x. They are very raer machines. Id say the 3rd rerest, 2nd and 1st being the 87 250R and 350X. $850 is a superb deal. I paid $750 for mine in fair condition (its liek new now but when I got it--wheew)
