@tricycleguy2657 6 ай бұрын

Honda owned "ATC" no other company could use that without a lawsuit, ATV became the general industry term.... quad and Trike are what I consider slang terms

It's painfully obvious how much heat the 3 wheeler industry was facing. This was Yamaha's chance to say "..see our videos, look at how proactive we are with safety." Apparently it did work. The other video I posted regarding the 'Consent Decree' showed a steady decline in ATV-related deaths/injuries between 1982-1987. Unfortunately it was just too late to turn the ship around by that point.

@MacWorthVintageATVs it could also be possible natural selection was tipping the scale

⁠@@tricycleguy2657lots of these guys that had these machines back in the day were skinny usualy and lighter usualy a 13-18 yr would ride a 185s-200s.,x,s,m or ytm200-225…. You already know those machines are 250-300+lb machines at 15yrs i had a 185s and i weighed 200+lbs and i think the more u weigh the better u can survive on em 😂 man i still miss my old 185s sometimes had a goki electric start to

You realize the 200 chain costed more than the yt125??? Brand new also the 200 is faster way faster than 125s but not 175

@doug2445 Күн бұрын

@trimotomann653 200 was not faster than a 2 stroke 125 and the 175 was faster but not by much.
