Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Well the teens that live down the road have been telling me about a 3-wheeler for $100 for a few weeks now. Saturday we load up in the Jeep and ride out to where it is to check it out. When i see it, im amazed to find out its the same one i used to own about 2 years ago. I bought it right there for $100. We get it home and put jumper cables on it and it fires right up. It still more or less the same as when i had it. The seat cover was gone and the front rack has been removed. Its a 1983 Honda Big Red ATC200E. The custom made receiver hitch on the back was the give away that it was my old one. I added that to it and ive never seen another with it.

Here is it now after i made a new seat cover for it and made a small jump seat for the toolbox lid.



Heres how it looked back in '07 when i first owned it.

That will beat a Gyro any day.

Lol, yea it will. GPS checked in high gear it will do about 47mph on the road. d*** near impossible to control at that speed though. Its a farm bike though, we live on 48 acres with horse pastures and its going to see life as a fence checker and path clearer.

And don't * around...(I knew it was going to roll but I didn't think it would hurt THAT much).

great find! That thing would be worth at least $900 to $1000 here in my neck of the woods in that shape! those things never die!

I'll have to keep an eye out for them, they are going cheap here.
