pickin up a new trike;>

[williewonka]

so im looking at a new trike its a 84 200x. so i was wondering any good info on these trikes. i have owened a tecte same year loved it but i had to sell it for a quad caz my gf wanted to come with but then she left so im just getting back in to the trike scene again so just wanting some info on the 200x's ill put pics up when i get em

[oscarmayer]

do up a search. theya re fun bikes. i'm redoing one myself.

[williewonka]

see i've looked em up and every thing but i'd like some hands on ex with people that em and drive em on a day to day baseis lol

[williewonka]

also i read some were one this site some guy said put 300ex hubs on they back to widen the stance a-bit. Are the mean the 300ex race quad honda has out there or they talking about something else ? some info on that would b awsome lol thx again

[86trizinger]

Yes the Honda 300ex ATV hubs fit directly on and are a little wider. I think the 400ex rear hubs work as well as a few others.

[williewonka]

ooo ok so ya it is the atv hubs and any year will fit right lol

I just sold my 84. It was a great bike, both trail and anywhere rider although rear suspension was a little wore out for the mx tracks. I had 300ex hubs on my rear and it added around 3 inches total. Lots of crf80 85 parts interchange on the brake systems. Parts readily available. Mine was pretty much stock except for DG pipe and sprocket change and it ran like a scalded dog......... Great bike, no not a 350x, but very light and agile on the trails, you should try and score one if you want my opinion. One of the most popular trikes ever built, very reliable. Good luck

Just got an 83 a few months ago and I love it , lot of parts out there for em and they are fun machines . I ride on a Buddys quad mx track and it handles everything with ease . Feels good to air out the old trike on the jumps too .
Good luck with your trike your gonna love it

[williewonka]

[williewonka]

i do have another question tho do they come stock with a twist grip or trumb throttle ?

[seadoo650]

Thumb throttle stock.

[williewonka]

well ill have to change that real quick lol

[williewonka]

can any one tell me wat year of 300ex hubs will fit a 83-85 atc 200x ?

[oldskool83]

all year...250x, 300ex and 400ex hubs also...all years 450r hubs work but are 1/8" nower per side for .250 over all so go with 250x/300ex or 400ex

[williewonka]

will those to hubs make it a little wider in the ass end as well ?

[oldskool83]

yes hubs add .75" per side 250x/300ex/400ex/450r wheels add 1" per side. if you do both you get 45.5" vs 42" stock.

[williewonka]

nice lol thx again guys

[williewonka]

wow just called my local honda dealer for some 300ex hubs and for both side it will run me just under 400 buck canadian. so im thinking 400 buck to have em now or in 2-3 days ooorrr i can go on to ebay and pick up a set for around 50-60 buck plus shipping i wonder what im going to do lol

[williewonka]

so stuff like this pissiess me off i got the mony ready to go pick up the 200x and guess wat i find out last night he sold it to a dick and now its back up for sell and its missing more parts and he wants more money for it stuipd people cant take the world of a guy like that. its hard for guy like us to find part for these sweet ass atv and u take part of em when there is nothing wrong em

[Frankencelery]

Wait a sec...you're saying that the guy sold it, and now the guy who just bought it last night took parts off it and then put it back up for sale for a higher price?

[williewonka]

yepo but its ok now caz i traded my trailboss 250 2stroke quad to a friend for his dirtbike i put it up for sell/trade for a new racing trike and i got a couple bites on two for it one is an 85 tri-z with new dg pipes bored out 0.20 over new tries on the bag and the other is a stock atc 250r 84 just with new tires on the back. id like to pick up the atc only thing is that it is like 15 hours away from were i am and the z is only like 2 and it has more upgrades lol so ya it all works itself out
