looks likethat engine fits in there nicely.was there a lot of modifications that had to be done?

[RodKnockRacing]

i love it!!!

[leviblue]

nice job...can't wait to see it in action

engines bolts in, just spacers in the back had to grinded down some and the top mount had to be redrilled since the engine is 6mm taller.

I remember you were trying to figure out where you were going to put the battery. Where did you finally place it or do you have a super long extension cord for the battery charger :lol:

But seriously, very nice installation :w00t:

[tri-Z ripper]

nice job please post more pics of the trike especially the motor mounts and such. those bikes are everywhere and cheap. i know of plenty of beat up 200X that could use a transplant. And those motors are a 6 speed which is great for a trike!

[RIDE-RED 250r]

Nice sleeper, cuz to the untrained eye that engine doesnt look a whole lot different from the old 200 motor at a glance...nice job!

Nice I would love to slap one of those in my 200x. Is that a 350x headlight?

Very cool trike! We need a ride report! I'm gonna get a 200X roller and I want to do this swap. Hows the gearing? Torque? vrs. stock? Thanks in advance.

[Dirtcrasher]

Fantastic, no more kicker gear issues!!

[the great gazoo]

Very impressive! I'd also like to see what the motor mounting looks like & where the battery is. Nice job.

[SeaBass8]

x2 Hows the gearing and tourque?

Looks good! Look forward to hearing a ride report. Thanks

^ You'll be happy with yours John :beer

I promise!

Certainly a great 83-85 200X upgrade........

[Xpress]

Now lets see someone do the lifan liquid cooled engine replacement :naughty:

I want more info on this. Could be the perfect upgrade for my X :D

Bike works great rides really nice only complaint would be bottom end torque, really doesn't start to perform until higher in the power band. And yes it is a 350x head light set up. Battery sits at the back of the bike pretty much right underneath the rubbers where the seat sits.

its got a 400ex batterybox on the back of the airbox, one season of riding and its still holding on
