    There are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those that do not.

    Yep she be a ATC200 very wobbly and easy to roll , loved by farmers but were banned in the states due to many accidents etc.
    Usual Honda build quality in the engine almost impossible to kill.

    I can vouch for that, first time I tried to ride one I hit a fence and nearly rolled it!

    Fun to ride if you don't just sit on them. They needed to be ridden similar to a sidecar - weight forward for steering, back for traction and off the side for cornering.

    You trying to do me out of the worlds ugliest atv title TT? Still getting over the ride I took down the street the other day with the throttle stuck wide open and the front wheel pointing to the sky and trying to hold the seat on at the same time.

    haha just about, got it for free so cant complain. I think the starter solenoid is fucked though, lights light up etc, but hit the starter button and nothing (it worked yesterday)

    pulled the two small wires off it and bridged them (assuming they lead to the starter button) and still nothing. but when I jimmy up a wire directly to the starter, she cranks over right away - so my pick is the solenoid is tempermental and worth throwing out and getting a cheapy chinese bit to replace it with.

    Yep as above ATC200, have the shaftdrive version sitting under a tarp here. Excellent fun to ride, and they float across rivers if they get a bit deep. Had hours of fun on mine over the years.

    You lucky bastard TT, the Trimoto has only the pull starter, on the left hand side too, which can be a real pain in the ass.

    With those words I would imagine you had fun also ! Could they slide in the mud or what..

    First, ahem, bike I ever rode.

    Nightmare steering on wet farm grass at any speed beyond walking pace. You had to countersteer, with your weight hanging way out to the side to get a decent power slide going.

    In the same category as the venerable CT90, in terms of return to the NZ economy.
