    Lol "put down the anti- depressants". That's why people were so happy in the 80s, cool ATVs, hair bands, and less stressful times. Super job on this Yamaha classic, beautiful machine.

    All joking aside, they do float perfectly when you get off it and swim beside it!. But dont let go of it cuz they like floating best upside down!

    Also that is not the reverse model, the 200ern had the little "reverse gearbox" by the engine output with a little shifter handle.

    @davesmith6929 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    @kaplan cycles I don't know if there is one but look for a lever on the side of the engine for the reverse, if there isn't one then you might just have to shift into reverse using the gear shifter, I'm pretty sure on some of the older ATV's that have reverse you shift into neutral then once more up, I could be wrong though, it's just a hunch

  • @kodiak880

    I almost killed myself on a Dx225 racing a xr500 and a rm250. I hit a washed up root across a downhill trail, just hit 3rd gear bounced up on 2 wheels right into a oak tree, shattered my collarbone. Those things are a blast once you learn how to throw the ass end around they like to plow when you turn them.
