X2. Started with a 110, then 200S, then this. Was a blast to ride. Always wanted a 300X.

Made the jump to 4 wheels with one of the first Foremans. You could not stop that fricker.

WOW! The memories of riding around the levees in Pecan Island, two on a bike, shotgun in one hand and cold beer in the other. Hit one of those big ant piles and you'd go flying into the marsh. Damn! How I never got killed, or really more than a little bruised, I'll never understand.

We had a big red and a 200s, would love to find another one but wife said no go, too dangerous.

I flipped the big red going pretty quick one day, didn't really get hurt though. Used to love to ride on two wheels, miss those days

Hand raised - Honda 110, 185S, and the last one I had was the 250 Big Red with electric start and reverse - none of them had brakes that really worked for more than a month

really enjoyed them all growing up.

Had a 200 up until a few years ago. Shift peg had broken off. Put a pair channel lock pliers on it to shift. Ran like a top.

My stepdad had a 185 atc I rode all the time then he got me a 250r when I was 14. Needless to say I had it about 3 months when I hit a drainage ditch doing 60-70 and broke my arm and f'd my leg up. Mom threw a fit and bought me a foreman.

Had a 110 and, then, a 185s. Can remember trying to go up a levee but didnt have enough power. Let off the gas a little to try and slow roll down the hill backwards. Started going too fast and gave it the gas. Front came over and flipped down the hill.
