- After striking out on finding a small trail bike for the Brokeback Dual Sport Adventures mini series, I ended up with this 1984 Honda ATC 250ES "Big Red" Not knowing what to expect, I showed up to the trails this morning fully prepared to leave this thing in the woods and walk my way out.
The boys @Sickofohio and @Tilliy2wheel 's reactions were priceless and after an hour of trying to bump start this old pig it was time to head into the woods. Right off the bat Tilliy led us up a hill climb and through various mud holes and obstacles I had to learn how to ride this thing and fast.
Let me know if you are enjoying the three wheeler action!

old honda atc's never die, they only jump time...
Truth haha! Keep that chain tight.
@@AdventureDaily the 84 to 86 big reds were shaft driven the 82 to 83s were chain driven
caden taylor wait i have one and i didnt know it was shaft driven. Its an 84 big red
@@squishytacticalnuke6991 We were referring to the cam chain.
They jump time and that still don’t kill em
dude this is awesome, you can tell its technically more difficult to ride than a dirtbike but you can tell you were having a blast on it, please look after the atc, im in australia and i own a 200es and a 250es and these are becoming increasingly harder to come by. Keep the ATC spirit alive.
Holy f-bomb did a beaver cut the hole for the light on the green thing. 🐻
I just got to that part wasnt expecting it 😂
He used his toe nails!
Tilly seems like such a cool dude lol
He is a legend!
Sounds like that ol girl needs a tune up, but it looks like fun!
Pilot was clogged! Running like a champ now!
@@AdventureDaily 😁👍🇺🇸
Hi Tanner, love your content, I had my first 3 wheeler in 1980 a 185cc and then bought the 250cc Big Red in 1982. They were both awesome, they could go where no 4 wheeler could (back in the day) lol, Couple of tips if I may offer them, always keep your feet on the pegs, more than one person ran over their leg lol. 3-wheelers will wheelie forever but remember you cant get your legs back if they go over to far and lastly, keep the rear tire pressure equal, they will pull bad to one side or the other when pressure is not even. You brought back some memories with this video.... Thanks....Cheers from Cape Breton Island, Canada ( I still ride a 250L)
They didnt make the 250 in 82
ATC 200e Big Red was the only one. They did have a 250R, but that was a two stroke. If memory serves '85 was the first year for the 250es Big Red.
Thanks Phillip! Definitely a learning curve with these beasts.
Sweet looks like fun man cant wait for more
Bro your living your best life, So much joy in your videos.
Thank you brother!! Awesome to still see your name pop up, hope all is well.
That three wheeler looks so fun 😂
Good times😂
That’s awesome! Love the big red. I just bought the exact same, 84 200es last week
Noice reactions boys !
Boggin for days !
Yeah buddy!!
Good video I always got a good laugh in when I rode a 3 wheeler lol.. they are the goofiest things to ride for sure
Grew up on a Honda 90atc, gotta '84 200m. Kick in the pants! Whoo hoo!
looked like heaps of fun, be even more fun when you get it running right 🤙
It was a blast it definitely wore me out though! She is running mint now.
These things look soo fun 👍👍😂
I went on a 80mi woods/fire road ride with a group of quads. My 82 big red 200e made it no issues. Swapping bars with older guys on much larger faster quads but they didn’t have the same skill or balls so I hung with um.
I feel like you enjoy getting stuck in muddy puddles at this point 😂👏
It's a love hate😂
You had fun😂😂
I just bought a 1984 Honda 200ES cheers 🍻
This looks alot fun! The closet I've been to a 3 wheeler was a quad bike which was freaking ace!
It is a blast but wore me out big time!
It’ll sure bring the kid out of ya having fun muddin. Looked fun
I had a blast on this thing!
Sweet 84 200es👍✌️
Thanks Mike!
Definitely need more vids of the big red! Only thing missing was your girl!
For sure! Coming soon!
That's a nice red
honestly i love my trikes more then any dirtbike ive ever owned.
A tune and a bit of love
For sure! It is running like a beast now!
Usually watching you ride makes me want whatever you're riding...can't say that for this one lol. Tippy stiff ol girl
I can agree with this statement😂
My first ride was a 185s ATC. Fricken awesome.
Same here. Somehow I never got seriously injured... lol
That's awesome!!
What the heck are you doing? Looks like you sir are having fun! Big Red looks like a hand full to drive but damn that looks like fun though!
Who knows haha and it was well worth it!
I love the big red videos
Thanks Grant! Plenty to come!!
Man, my first bike was a Honda 185s and ate shit at first, quite a learning curve with 3 wheels. It did give me skills that transferred to 2 wheels later on though. If you don't die from a 3 wheeler landing on top of you~ you are good man 👍
That's awesome Dan! Definitely a learning curve for me. I appreciate you watching.
Lol lol tanner lol dude bad ass!
Thank you Jeff!!😅
The guy with the beard is so cool and funny
now i want one !!!
They are a blast!
That thing is wicked!! Looks so sketchy tho!
VERY sketchy!
I would definitely recommend cleaning the carb jets and new spark plug and air filter
I wanna ride w y’all looks like a blast
I love trail riding atc’s…. My back doesn’t but it’s worth the beating…
Sucks that Honda got sued so many times, they stop making them. I rode them a few times and they are a blast to drive
Trevor Powell My cousin broke his leg on a 200X... Got his leg pulled under the rear wheel, lmho!!! Wasn’t too funny at the time for him tho, lol🤣👎
Victor Halada yup that almost happen to me too lol
I am loving it!
Attention Deficit knew another guy Buddy in High School who had the ATC250R... Kid was ABSOLUTLY CRAZY on it!!! 2STROKE CR250R motor in a 3wheeeler!!! What the heck was HONDA engineers thinking to release these to the public, Hahahaha!!! Dude would powerslide corners with those smaller diameter squared off hard compound race slicks... ABSOLUTE CRAZINESS even to this day!!!🤣🤣🤣🤙🏽
The rear fenders weren't long enough/sturdy enough in front of the rear tires, older quads same way (Honda, Suzuki etc) where you could get pulled under the rear tires just as quick if you weren't paying attention 😜. But yeah seriously sucks there's dumb people who sue anyone or anything because they have no self accountability. I think with better/different legal counsel, whitness's trial proceedings most of them lawsuit case's would have been thrown out today.
DAMN no flip I was waiting for it
Stay tuned!
THE RED MUD PUDDLES BEAST
Let her EAT!
I'd like to get my hands one a Big Red. I had so much fun on the one I had.
You should! Brings back a lot of memories for people. I am trying to get a 250ES now.
Leave it in high for mudholes otherwise it can't spin fast enough to clear the tires.When you're turning around in a muddy area like that weight the inside footpeg and shift your weight to the center and hammer the throttle using the pegs to force the rear end around like you're drifting. Make sure you commit to it because if you let up and it regains traction you'll roll.
Good tips! I am new to this more than two wheel stuff.
Bro my face hurt from laughing during your whole vid!!! Nothing like putting around at safe speeds where ya don’t have to worry about maiming oneself, lmho!!! Dude just an idea??? A lot of times after my toys sit for a bit they sometimes tend to be a lil hesitant firing... I’ll pull the air box lid and shoot a couple lil sprays of QUICKSTART fluid right into the intake and spark plug hole... what’s good about the stuff is that it emulsifies ANY dirt or gunk cleaning your Jets or Injectors WITHOUT having to dissemble the whole fuel delivery assembly!!!😇👍🏼 even pour a healthy amount of SEAFOAM into your tank and blast around a few rides and that should help loosen things up a bit even after it sits She’ll run like new again... USALLY, lmho!!!🤣🤙🏽 BTW the Older Gentlemen reminds me of Santa Claus!! Having a BLAST riding Minis in his off season, lmho!!!🤣🤣🤣 Best of luck and have fun!!!😇🤙🏽
Glad you enjoyed it Victor! Great idea and I actually pulled the carb apart and the Pilot jet was completely clogged. Runs like a champ now!
6:25 he sounded like cyclecruza 😂😂
Definitely haha! I use his voice time and again. Love me some slide action.
Definitely an 84 200es. Definitely needs a valve adjustment, if it doesn't have an aftermarket pipe on it then it has a exhaust leak (pretty much every 200 does lol) carb clean and jet it for the leak
That is the weirdest looking thing ever 🤣
It is pretty unique😂
I have the 86 250es big red they are so dependable and go anywhere.
That's next on the list!
I had a 200 X, which you would love. It’s fast, light, reliable, but kickstart only.
If I could find one I would get the 250SX which has shaft drive, reverse and decent power.
I am getting a 250ES soon and then I would like to find an SX for sure. I already have an ATC problem and it hasn't even been a week..
@@AdventureDaily my dad has a 350x, its awesome! After you get every atc you want, get the 350x. Its like the cherry on top!
i have a 86 250 sx and love it !
You big red is ten times better shape than mine. Nice find.
Thank you! Should be picking up a 250 here soon.
250R maybe👍👍👍
The big red will be a different machine with some mud lite AT tires.
What were you reaching for on the handle bars by the light? Looks like the choke.
Big girl needs a crab clean
Bro that crab was dirty but I managed to get the salt water out of it.
Nice ride, I take it there’s a part 2 coming?
Absolutely! Tonight at 7!
Runnin too rich ! New spark plus every like 20 runs for those old
Guys
Atc200 super moto build? 👀😂😂
Negative haha maybe street legal though.
Next purchase should be an ATC250R lol
Now that's a deathwish!
Anyone no if u need tabs or registration on any of these old three wheelers? For trails or lakez in minnesota??? Lmk
Do you think big reds are worth it I’m wondering if I should get one?
Carbs bogging maybe clogged jet or floater if not check air box sometimes when it’s wet I can do that
Next time it’s flooded like that, turn the gas off and find the flat head at the bottom of carb, loosen it and drain the carb.
Good thing it wasn't running good because he was already afraid of it and I must ask is this the first time he ever rode a 3 wheeler. LOL
Is it clutch driven or automatic
You should definitely snorkel it
Where does that vent-hose lead to on the gas tank. I have a ‘84 Big Red like this and it has a metal gas tank with no hose so...
Vent hose just leads to the ground, plastic tank is nice to not have to worry about dents but the metal is original and classy.
Attention Deficit cool thank you
Where is this?
Them some big boys on some small bikes lol
For sure!! That's what makes it fun haha.
When I use to tow my 125m “AKA Bouncy” I had to turn off the fuel or it would flood the air filter and the air box with fuel. Almost killed my self sooo many times on it. But there a blast and are tough as nails...Can’t wait to see how the rest of the day goes
That's crazy! The pilot was clogged on this beast it is running like a champ now, thanks for watching!
Attention Deficit That’s awesome glad you got it running good..I am looking for a Honda 350X but there either clapped out or super nice and they are asking way to much for both
Don't listen to all the Nancy's.... 3 Wheelers are a fucking BLAST! You just have to know how to ride them. LOTS of body english and you'll be fine. Figure out your carb issue, probably needs cleaned good, maybe some jetting depending on the pipe. Get a new plug too. Big reds are great, just keep an eye on valve adjustments and timing chain noise.... I have a 250SX, love that thing! I'll never get rid of my 3 wheelers, they are just too much fun, but you can't have idiots ride them or else bad things can happen fast. That's primarily why they got outlawed...
I agree 100% you just have to learn to manage the machine and no its limits whatever it is. Pilot was clogged it is running like a champ now. I am trying to get my hands on a 250ES and an SX now haha let the addiction begin.
@@AdventureDaily LOL! For sure man! You can't just have one! And honestly, the bang for the buck factor is off the charts! 3 wheelers are fun! Glad you found yourself a nice one!
It does go through the mud pretty good but it looks super unstable at higher speeds
Believe me it is haha.
@@AdventureDaily I saw that you had a hard time keeping the handle bars straight and it has no suspension
That bike will run longer than it back can take it
Should just need a carb clean or carb kit should make it run pretty good
Pilot was clogged! Running like a champ now!
@@AdventureDaily awesome
if your keeping the choke pulled you need a carb clean
Already did that it runs mint now thanks though!
Is that a clutch lever or rear brake lever?
It’s a wet clutch system so that lever is rear break
Had 250r 60 over Wisconsin had pipe reeds thing was death machine dont put your feet down or it would pull you off the machine 1 leg at a time and don t ride behind it the rocks it would chuck would kill you other then being a death machine it wasn extremely fun
Did you sell Clifford the Big Red already?
It’s still here!
Ever been to Kensington Ohio strip pits
No, is it worth checking out?
Yea lot of hills
if your going to take apart the carb again might as well do a full rebuild on the whole motor
Engine is fine, the pilot jet was clogged.
Bit of a difference between tasks there lol carb clean or a rebuild 🤔🙃
I sold mine 3 or 4 years ago what a mistake
3:00 lmfao, not a choke a decompression lever to help on startup if you are using the recoil.
I just started to rebuild my track we can ride
Let's do it!
Don't know if it will make it? Its the most reliable off road vehicle ever made lol so simple.
Lol a Prius pulling a three wheeler wtf😂
I daily drive a big red 200 to work everyday in my village Aniak Alaska they are a lot of fun but they will run you over while your still driving some how.
That's awesome !!
Ur gas cap isn’t breathing right or u need so clean spark plug! Reds are notorious for running a little rich and fouling out the plugs. But when it gets started u can’t stop em
Pilot jet was clogged and the carb had a slow leak.
choke was on it
I've seen them converted to 2 wheelers
I would love a fat tire bike someday! BW200 for sure or a Fat Cat.
@@AdventureDaily I've got a tw200 done for the rough trails
That thing is aiming to kill you, those 3 wheelers were banned in the UK over twenty years ago due to their instability on steep ground,too many people dying. !!!
That's what makes them awesome though, this thing is weak compared to the atc250 2 stroke. Would love to get one and restore it in the near future, 2 stroke 250 that's is
I rode a 3 wheeler when I was a teen, im still here... stop trying to ruin everything because there are stupid people who cant ride.
@@MrTheguywiththemoney I am definately not trying to ruin anything,just stating a fact.stick to two wheels,much safer and a lot more fun.
You just have to respect the machine and learn how to ride it! Same risks apply to all machines.
I've got a first gen 250r and 1st gen atc200. I think I like the 200 better
It sounds like it’s not getting enough fuel
Pilot was clogged!
I like the 200s but its just slow and sluggish you need a 200x lot more fun more power and speed
I'd like to get my hands on a 250sx!
I can tell you don't ride ATC often 😂
As I stated in this video this was pretty much my first time riding one!
Id rather the ATC over the minis any day
Another bike that takes 2 hours to start
Well let's give him the benefit of the doubt, he and his pals are newbs. Big middle aged men riding sub 150 4 strokes?! I mean come on.
Carb needs rebuilt. A ATC with decent compression and a clean carb will start one or two pulls, all day.
Pilot was clogged, running like a champ now!
What is this trail place called?
Too bad the Big Red wasn’t one year newer... 250cc, rear suspension, easier reverse, back up kickstarter
Working on it!
There were actually two different versions of the Big Red, The 200E which his is most likely and the more sought after 250ES which were the bigger ones with full suspension. I'd love to get my hands on a 250 SX, it's almost like a little bit taller and sportier Big Red. That or try to find a decent Yamaha 225DX. Luckily for my brothers and I we learned to ride on my fathers old 1982 185S, that poor thing was solid on front and back so no speed was gentle unless it was a smooth road. :)
That was painful watching your method of trying to start the big red.
Sounds like a carb problem
Oh it is!
Junk and it sounds funny
