Well I finally got a replacement for my 200x that I did some work to and sold (bought for 200 sold for 600 :) and finally the trike Ive ridden literaly all my life has been handed down to me from my grandpa. I always ride the little beast hard so Its not going to be a full resto but I will do some things just to clean it up at least. Now Im not sure whether its a 185 or 200 it has the Hi-Lo-Rev on the side with the selector so I think its the 200 but Im not sure. So after I have an egine rebuild or tune up at the local honda shop I want to do a couple small things to just up it. New wheels and tires prob nothing fnacy just something nice and light and a tire with decent tread. And for a bit more speed I want something easy so itll be an air filter, and somehing else but Im not sure whats out there anyone know of a pipe or a bit larger bore?

If it has a hi-low box, 110 or 125m.

With the high, low, and reverse. Sounds like a 1984 Big Red.

Not wanting it to be just a bit more power, this is argued all the time so I am not wanting to have a racer. I just want to go through the trails and on the straightaways faster. So Air filter, Pipe, Cam, and Bigger bore are my options right? Does anyone have any company names or parts you are selling.

Check dennis kirk for exhaust (if there is even an aftermarket one), webcamshafts,com for a cam, and get a K&N filter. Boring really doesnt help proformance but a 10.25:1 comp pistion will make you have much more punch. and maybe some smaller tires on the back. Good luck if your doing this to a 200es.

Well heres my options from DK. Cobra Utility Series, Cobra Quiet Series, and Cobra Megaphone. Not a fan of cobra because Ive heard of the rusting, who has experience with cobra's performance and its rust problems. Moose, KandN, and Uni filter. A 67mm bore Piston (thats the highest if its a realy big jump from stock ill go a step or two lower). Or a newer carb. I want to mix and match two or three. Airfilter is in becuase its the least expensive. This trick doesnt have to be balls out fast just some easy add ons for more power on the trails and not kill motor life.
