Trying to figure out which one to get. TheRedcat VX150 or VX200. What are the advantages and disadvantages of an automatic vs. manuel? If something goes wrong is one easier to fix/cheaper? Which would be more fun to ride in general? Also, I see there is a backup kick start on the 150 is this true of the 200. I don't think so.

Thank you and Happy Holidays !

 

There is no kickstart on the 200. The 200 will be quicker, faster and more powerfull and is water cooled unlike the 150.

 

There is a kick start on the 150 take a look even thow it's not listed in the spec.
Kickstart

 

Thats not a kick start. That puts it in neutral or forward gear.

 

That's not a 200 it's a 150

Take a look even from Raceway
