200x questions

[peeweesp]

well its been a while scince i have posted, i know a kid with an 85 or 86 dont know for sure, 200x it needs and exhaust, axel bearings, piston rings and probobly valve adjustment. he said 250 and it is mine, i know it runs but is it worth it?

thanks

Hell yeah. Get it while you can.

I think that is. If it is a 86, its a steal! I mean exhaust is about $100 ebay and a good piston set from wiseco is $100 and axle bearings arent to much i think about $30 . I would go for it all forward, but i'd watch it if i were you. These 200x's are trouble. Someway they'll get you! haha mines emptied my wallet several times, currently just did so i could buy a working ignition. You'll have a good trike on your hands.

Do you have any pictures of you 1985 200X?

[peeweesp]

heres a picture and is the 200s piston the same as the x? becasue i have a whole 200s in parts.

[Blown 331]

That's an 87, get it for sure!

[thefox]

That is an '87 200x so no, the 200s piston is not the same. $250 would be a deal for that trike.

[peeweesp]

so you are saying no matter what buy it, i mean i could buy it fix it resell it, for a good price, i would keep it over winter but ill see about pickin it up for sure.

[slothminx]

An 87!! snap that thing up, if you really want to buy it do it up and sell, but i think once you have ridden it you will want to keep it.

87's are like chicken teeth... buy it .. fix it.. ride it.. and sell it for 4 times that much in years from now !!! GET IT !

[chris200x]

Buy it and I'll give you $400 for it. Parts are kinda hard to find for that.

[peeweesp]

ill probobly pick it up and resell after the winter, my 200s broke so i havent refixed that yet. so i need a winter bike

[edog]

Buy it and keep it.

[Somekindofjerk]

really you should keep it, after you ride it you wont want to sell it!

[kilabeez0]

my 200x drained my wallet and it "ran" when i bought it. parts are insanely rare for those, unless it ran well i wouldn't do it to try and make a profit which it sounds like * want to do. make SURE all it needs is a top end. Any shifting problems and your out some serious bux!!! and make sure the rear end isn't rusted solid or you'll go from needing new bearing to needing a complete rear end!

[peeweesp]

i will probobly fix it and sell it like i said i really have no need for another one, i guess i could sell the 200s and keep the x but who knows i really want to get a new streetbike so we will see what happens. but i was talkin to him earlyer he said it runs fine it just smokes like a *****. but im sure once i have the x and get back to riding trikes i will be hooked again lol

[edog]

Yes you will....

[peeweesp]

well with my 200s i never really did any serious offroading, all i really did was do wheelies all day, but when i did offroad it, it was fun besides the fact hitin jumps is horrbile lol and i could never keep up with my friends but i was suprised what it would do.
