    Remove carb - remove jets - clean jets, re install jets, reinstall carb, give her a go - sounds like a dirty carb problem to me!

    The ES carbs are finicky with the smallest bit of crud in them... I had to take mine apart twice and rebuild it to get it running correctly. Also, double check and make certain the jets are correct size. I got a rebuild kit once with the wrong main jet (way too big)

    Are you sure what machine you have? There wasnt a 200ES in 1985... 1985 was the first year of the 250ES

    I would start looking at timing, and also making sure the exhaust isnt plugged... Mice have created plenty of problems in exhaust systems....

    How is the exhaust? If it runs decent on half choke, it leads me to believe you need to fatten up your jets.... (it isnt a former "high altitude" machine is it?)

    In Soda's defense, I do believe that in other parts of the world, Honda did infact make a 85 200es... (not positive, but thought I read into that here on the forum somewhere...) Sure would like to see a picture or two!
