big 200x scoops

[kwit]

.. do they make large 200x scoops? like huge ones like on a 250r... i have an aftermarket plastic tank and i was wondering if i could find a pair of large air scoops... red ones tho.. would 250r scoops possibly bolt up?

[speed20]

i dont know if 250R ones will bolt up but maier makes super scoops ( i believe thats what they are called) i have a pic of them on my 200x....you cant really see what they look like...but ill get the best pic i can find. the only difference i have noticed is that the maier ones have a curve to them whereas stock are flat.

where did you get that seat cover that says Honda accross the back in such big letters?

[speed20]

as far as i know its stock.....lol if its not stock i dont know where i got it from besides the previous owner, and lord only knows where he got it from.

I don't really like the looks of the 83-85 200x tank, and the maier super scoops don't help it very much. Im working on building a race engine, and plan on adding an oil cooler. so Im wanting some air scoops that are more functional. So I started playing around with some photos. I haven't committed to the idea yet, but I do have a 86 200x tank and Im sure I can make it fit. But, I really like the looks of the 350x tank on the 200x...
Hehe... Kinda like buying your girlfriend a boob job :-D

Okay, the oil cooler purpose makes sense to me, but if you dont have an oil cooler mounted in there, what would be the purpose of large scoops in a machine without a radiator? Im losing sleep over this.

Maybe I'm way off, but I have my reservations about how much cooling those fins actually contribute to cooling on an air cooled system w/ no radiator. Seems like thermal protection in the way of running synthetics, etc. would be a priority. Any thoughts about this?

on a 200x it would prolly be for looks 8)

TRI-Zbrian, go read your private messages I don't believe you have received them yet.

The front fender and tank scoops on the 1985 200x were tested in a wind tunnel for maximum airflow over the cylinder head.
