I'd go 250sx.
or 200x.
Although if you are looking for something similar to your lawn mower. Go with the Big Red. Kind of like a tractor.

I agree that the Yamaha made good trikes,,,,BUT getting parts can be a bear!

When i was around 14 the first trike i got was an atc honda 250es bigred either and 85 or 86.. i Still have my 86 and it hasn't let me down yet. There could for a fearly big person and they can push alot. They have lots of power could for moving stuff and they can keep up with alot of bikes out there. You can find them on line and in the paper for around 500 bucks... or even lower..
hope this helps.. alex

200X has my vote. Great bike. I had one when I was 16 and my uncle still has for a spare bike and it can still haul my big Arse around really easy.

Believe me I have riddinn the 250SX and owned a 200X and the 200X is quicker(maybe not over a long drag), better suspension and a better all around ride. You will be able to hit 35-40mph on the 200X. Also easier to get parts. Just my .02

Yeah get a big red but after about 1-2 years youll get tired of it it isint a fast bike ill tell ya what, if ya wanna be like me get a tecate for your first bike

Yeah the Big Red is a great bike. Or if you want something alittle more sportier you might wanna look at a late model 200X. Great begginer bike in my opinion. Not to much power, but plenty to have fun with and learn on.

Okay I am 14, 15 in Feb and was wondering what would be a good atc for me, I am about 5-9 145 lbs and don't know what to am for, should I go for somthing special or just what ever I can get?
Well I was/am big into riding lawn mower, I have a really nice one that I fixed up that I could sell and after I put the mower deck back on for around $200 and have saved up $150, I know that that is not veyr much but it is a start.
My friend has a 110 I think, that was pretty fun. I was thinking a 200 or maby even a 250. What do you think isa good beginers trike is?
I live is Washington state also.

Big reds are not fast... Well if a 250 will hit 35-40 i will be happy
