Hey man my grandfather has one. Im not quite sure what year it is. I think it was made in the mid 80's like yours because it has pretty much the same body style. His is all rusty, it has some dings and dents, some plastic is broke off toward the rear wheel well, it has cobwebs, the tires are flat, and it has been sitting there lately. Yet, it was only recently it stopped working (only needs new battery). That goes to show how reliable and high quality it is. Great vehicle. Nicely built.
Ihad a 85 and you could not kill it, I flipped it ,rolled it , hit a wall at about 20 mph, hill climbed, crossed creeks with water above gas tank, hauled a vw bug about two miles these things are tough.
I had an 84 and I rolled that thing off a pretty steep incline and bent the handlebars. I took it to the lake and put it in the water and the thing floated, with me off of it. I would jump hills with it, do wheelies until I scraped my back once. I treated it like dung and it kept coming back for more, great atv. I wish that I still had it.
I agree. Like I said, my grandpa has one. Its old, and he let it sit there for a while, but the thing still works great. Im only twelve, and it was so reliable to survive the 23 or 24 years so I could expierience the fun it brought. By the way wish me luck when I ask my grandpa to race me when I get my Raptor 700 I'm saving up for lol.
ummm lol 700 raptor could tear a big reds ass.... but one thing bout it wont have to worry bout the big red breakin down cuz the 700 raptor will be in the ground before this bike even hits the mudd
i got a 1983 honda bigred 200e and its been runing for years i fixed it up but i was riding it yesterday and it just like shut off it has spark has compression and has gas to the carb but wont get gas to the plug i tried starting fluid in the carb with the throttle wide open and it still wont run HELP!!!!!!!!!!
nice got the same thing but mine has a dent in the gas tank and its a little sraped up the only thing we put in it was a new carborator and three new tires ( kenda bear claws in the back and a kenda scorpien up front ) you cant kill big reds!!!
has that wheeler been in storage for the last 23 years? nice I have a 85 big red, still runs great but I dont ride it much. what do u think I could ger for it?
I have a 1983 honda big red 200 E and i was riding one day and it just like popped then shut off i checked the spark plug, the valves, the gas to the carb, clead out the carb and made sure it had great compression but it wont start does anyone know how to check the timming? HOW DO U CHECK THE TIMING?
i have 2 that i am selling that are just like this one but brand new but old. they where bought then put in a garage and have been there since 1986.$2500 each
Sorry my vid response isn't all that clear but it was pissing down outside as it has been 4 about the last 14 days, ya could hear my feet on the waterlogged grass and i made it with ma nokia 6630 so the sound isn't all that true either but shit happens, opps below i said 86sx aswell. 87sx . So come on lets see what you all got if its better than mine :)
Nice :) but i would have to say mine is just as good since in all round original condition with no new paint. its awsome how the head light has a meter long cord so u can put it anywhere on the ground :) I also got a 86 250 SX but shes a little ruff.
!!WOW!!.... The lovely Big Red. Mine was 1988 and believe me, the best motorcycle I ever had in my whole life. the new quads are ok, but that one was simply.. THE BEST. Greetings from Mexico.
Its one to keep it in excellent shape, but that thing seems like its never seen mud!!! Thats no life for a big red. For shame. I am truly dissapointed in you.
that trike went for $5,000 If it went for anything lower than that....then that is ashame
