Rear hub interchangeability question

[booblinker]

Bought an 86 200x and its missing a rear hub, what other model/years will fit it?

Late 80's, early 90s 300ex hubs are the same, maybe even late 90's as well.

From what I read on other posts those will work for the 83-85 but not the 86

They'll actually work for all 200x's and are require when upgrading to the later style 9 inch wheel (which the 86-87 200x uses), but the 83-85 200x hub won't work with the 86-87 200x's, they have a shorter stud and notches in them to keep the wheel centered, which ineterferes with the rim on the later style wheels. I can assure you that the 300ex hubs will work (I've done it), and I'm almost positive that all the 400ex hubs are the same. Stay away from the 85-86 250r and 450r hubs...the spline pattern is just a bit too big, although the lug patterns are the same.

If you look on Ebay, you can get some killer Billet 400ex hubs that make the 400 almost 4" wider and from what I hear the 400ex stock hubs make the 200x wider. So maybe close to 5" total and including shipping you can get them for under $90. :naughty:
