Can anyone tell me if an 86-87 200x motor will bolt into an 85 200x? Im tired of dealing with a slipping kickstarter. Wouldnt be half as bad if i could just call honda and order the parts, but when the microfiche says call for price, you know you are screwed. Thanks for any help guys.

You mean under cutting the gears? I want top get a hold of a spare engine. Also don't have a garage right now to even think about splitting cases. Wouldn't want to practice undercutting gears on my only set and wild up with a push start 200X. Or do it wrong and have a tooth break off and mess something else up.

Did you under cut your gears? Was it hard?
