ok here is my question, has anyone ever put a 200ebig red engine or a 200m engine in a 200x chassis, and just used all the wring and stuff from the other machine, and that would be pritty awesome if someone did do that cuz if you put the 200e in the 200x you would have electric start, hi/low range, and if you used the 200m you would have elctric start, so if anyone has done this convertion i would like to see some pics.

it would work, but you'd have to whack the down tube so the electric starter would fit, and who would want a 200e motor, you have to take half the bottom cases apart to get at the front sprocket, the motor is definitely a poor design on honda's part. If anything i'd go for the 200m, i have heard of a few of those. A few ppl told me they just whacked the down tube with a hammer, which is pretty much all honda did, just a little more professional like

With electric start youd have to find a spot to put the battery on the 200x though.

the 200x has different compression so it would be different performance-wise
