Pullstart 62,795 #3 Posted October 16, 2019 Big Red was the work machine I always used at my aunt and uncle’s growing up. We were 1.3 miles from their house and they gave me a Honda 110 one time as “payment” for working I a field pulling stumps for a weekend. I’d drive it back and forth all the time. I do know, the 200 Big Red was no where near as fast as the 200S... and I once grenaded the transmission when I was going too fast down the “killer hill” out back a little too fast... trying to downshift. Have fun, be careful! I probably don’t need to remind you of that... but they are too easy to get a little out of control... @dells68 I was a thinking about you, we’ve had our three wheeler chats before 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 10,738 #7 Posted October 17, 2019 Super cool machine! It is like a time capsule from the 80’s. I grew up driving 3 wheelers including a buddies Honda 110. My favorite was a homebuilt that my uncle made out of a Honda CB360 motorcycle. It had a jackshaft and was headed down to only do about 35mph in high gear but was stout enough to pull a hay wagon with a half load provided that you had enough “ballast” on the 3wheeler. It was great for running between the farms and we used it for all kinds of chores and play during the late 80’s and early 90’s. Super fun stuff. Glad you found the machine that you have been looking for. I love your screen name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
