No it won't fit. The 86/7 motor only fit in 86/7 frames.

I wouldnt be so quick to tell him no. It wont bolt in. I've seen an 86 engine in a 1st gen 200x. You need engine mounts atleast. and probably alittle more work.

Why not? That is the answer to the question.

You can also use any of the 200 185 motors with pull start. The are a direct bolt in.

Thanks guys !!! I will wait for an 84 or 85. or maybe just rebuild the one I have . It only needs a top end and I already bought the top end kit w/ cylinder. I am just not a 4 stroke guy. maybe This winter I will learn seeing as how all motocross bikes will only be available as four strokes shortly.:crazy:

Really?? That is nuts. Why are they getting rid of 2 strokes bikes? Global warming:crazy:

A 83 200x motor will work also so.
