It’s the nicest Fat Cat I’ve ever seen – it’s also, by far, the most expensive. If you believe the seller’s story, this Fat Cat has been ridden just once by a child who didn’t like it, and it’s been parked ever since. This is one of the nicer Fat Cats I’ve seen – I’m just stunned to see one where the decals look good, even if they’re new replacements.įind this Honda TR200 for sale in Chesterfield, Virginia with bidding up to $1,602 and the reserve not yet met here on eBay.Post Listing Update: This Fat Cat did not get any interest at the BIN of $15,000 or best offer.

Want to learn more? Dirt Bike had a great comparison review back in June of 1986, available here. Now, though – the Fat Cat is much more rare, which is why you find it in front of you right now. At the time, you should have picked up the TW200. While it was an excellent entry-level dirt bike, the Fat Cat was targeted way more towards beginners. The lack of a real clutch made it more difficult to corner, and the chassis design kept it slow around the corners. The suspension was overworked, and for experienced riders, there was no reason to pick the Honda over its Yamaha competition.

This bike was arguably rushed out as a competitor to the TW200, and this bike wasn’t as developed. Honda pulled the engine for the Fat Cat from the ATC200X ATV, and they detuned it. With a 199cc four-stroke engine putting power through a five speed transmission and an automatic clutch, this bike was unique due to its use of two ATV-style tires. Sold for just two years, the Honda TR200 (better known as the Fat Cat) was similar to the more popular Yamaha TW200.
