The 200es will not fit, it is shaft drive.

The motors that will fit are:
1980 185
1981-1983 185s
1981-1983 200
1982-1983 200e ( Big Red )
1984-1985 200m
1984-1986 200s

The 200es will not work because of the shaft drive set up. ;)

I have been told this also. I didn't include the 200x in my list because I have not tried it to be 100% sure.
Hopefully someone else here has and can give us all a update. ;)

I do know these fit:
1980 185
1981-1983 185s
1981-1983 200
1984-1986 200s

The 200e and 200m won't because the electric starter gets in the way of the frame. At least I am 80% sure of it. ;)

LOL, I hope he does know. How ever I don't think he has tried it either. He isn't a Honda fan by any means.



can a 250 r motor fit in a 200x

The key word here is "Can". Anything can be made to fit with modifications.

If your wanting to know if the 250r motor will bolt right in a 200x frame, then the answer is "No". There are Major differences in the motors and the way they mount.

Howdy, For a guy that doesn't really like Hondas. Tim sure was anxious to have a Honda 350x that I finished the race with pull him off the track and out of the mud. Maybe he changed his mind and got a little smarter that day. LOL I have pics of it coming also to taunt him with.
