My forks have gone looney on my 84R I can get my hands on a set of 85-86 350x shocks across the country, does anyone know if the forks will fit in the steering stem? The triples? Axle?

most if not all Honda 3 wheelers use the same steering stem bearings

the bigger sport trikes have a bigger steering stem than the small utility trikes.

The 350x stem is actually a little bigger than the 84 R stem, so you might be able to use the fork legs in your current triples and be a bolt in type deal. I know you have to turn down the end of the 350x stem that goes into the lower triple to use a 250R triple on a 350x.

I think they will fit. The 350x 81-82 250r and 200x 83-85 take the same steering stem bearing and race.oem are loose ball type. The 83 - 86 250r take the tapered style oem.The liquid r front end make a good up grade on the 83-84 250r.

DO a thread search for "fork swap". There are a few threads that deal with this type of swap.

a friend of mine put a 350x front end on his 82 200.He had to change the steering stem from the 200 on to the 350x tripple.
