honda 200s forks on a 1980 honda 110?

[clmeue37]

I kind of hit on this topic in my thread in the commencement section but figured I may get better feedback here.

I've read that the front end of a honda 200s will bolt directly onto the 110. Can anyone confirm this? I'm aware that I would probably have to modify the steering stops in order for it to work. I only ask because I happen to have a spare laying around and would love to try it out.

If this is possible to do does anyone know if there is an updated bearing I can use or am I stuck using the loose ball bearings in the neck?

About updated steering stem bearings...
All balls makes a set. A link is below. But, if you swap forks out I don't know if the updated bearings will work.

Thanks for the reply! I'm going to give it a try once I get some time. There's nothing wrong with the original 110 forks but since a true restoration is almost impossible for me at this point I figured "what the hey" I've got these forks laying around doing nothing anyway.

Thanks again yaegerb!

Ok guys I'm sure there are gonna be some mixed feelings on this subject but what are your opinions of the knockoff carbs on ebay? I'm leaning toward buying one because mine isn't looking good, I've got it soaking at the moment but there is so much scale built up in there, not to mention the float is cracked and is full of gas. I just don't think it's ever going to be 100%. I have one of these on my 200s and it hasn't skipped a beat and now I'm thinking of putting one on the 110. Any input is appreciated!

I have one on my 84 200ES, and i have bought them for others, i haven't had any trouble with them! You do what you got to, and carbs just wear out.

[clmeue37]

Yeah especially when these carbs can be had for just a little more than a rebuild kit :)

Well after nearly 3 years I finally found some time to get the front end swapped. Still have to buy another 200s front fender. The fender in the pic I borrowed from my 85 200s for the time being. I also have to weld a new steering stop on as this front end uses a different setup than the original.
