Is it possible to put the front forks from a honda 200s onto a 1982 honda 200? the difference being the shocks. If so is a simple, take one off put one on, or is there more involved? Also will it make much difference in the ride. being I would have to purchase the fork, I wouls like it to be worth the effort. :?:

u buying the complete forks or just the shocks, or would u want to buy a set of 200s forks. i have a set of them that are fair. as far as i can tell it wouldnt be too hard to swap the front forks from a 200 to a 200s. the ride i am sure would be about the same.

Yes they should go right on, i took my parts 200s and put the front end on my 185 frame which was sold suspensions, it made a big differenece even though it was only like 2inch travel, i now took them off and put a 84 250r front end on, and now its is awsome, just that little bit of suspension makes the hole trike seem smother, next will be back suspension on it
