I had a 200S 4-wheeler, a 250X a 250R and now a Banshee and a YZ-250,, I have been riding bikes and 4-wheelers for about 20 years, and nothing compares to a 3-wheeler, they tip like crazy and they dont like to turn very well going fast... be careful...

Take that thing to the junkyard so nobody gets hurt on it. My experience is about the same as Chris228's and I would have to agree with the "tip like crazy" Theres a good reason they don't make 'em anymore. Remember in the early 80's how many people got killed on 3 wheelers?

I had one of these for YEARS, used to hunt on it, mine was a 225, sold it 1o years after buying it for $100 more than I paid.

They are a lot of fun if you want to ride wheelies and the like, but as said before, as a "tool" they are WAY to unstable. I used to keep a tank sprayer on mine to spray fence lines and the like, it was good for that, also to haul a small tailer of horse manure around here and there, but at speed, they are deadly. There is a guy in our neighborhood who about once a week I see riding his motorized wheelchair around these back roads. He was hurt while high school age while riding a bike simmilar to this, paralized from chest down.

Mine was an excellent machine, but far to unstable to do much with.
