I have a honda fat cat bottom end with clutches and such. I also have a atc 200 with bad clutch shoes. Will the shoes from the honda fat cat fit in the atc 200?
Same goes for the secondary clutch. Will the clutch basket from the fat cat fit on the atc 200 as well?

185 common as dirt. Parts can be had on ebay.


Fatcat, Rare!!!! if you only have the bottom end in still sure you could sell it for way more then you need to buy the clutches, and you could make someone very happy!



I do not believe they direct swap.

I agree, i wouldnt swap the parts around. Plus, whats going to be more reliable than the OEM parts?
If moneys the issue than sell it like was mentioned above and also have a few bucks left over.

Well I also have a honda fat cat. Just rebuilt the motor on it a week ago. I want to keep the extra bottom end for parts. But I also wanted to know if I could use some of the
parts for my atc 200.

Hello


Go to cmsnl.com and compare. It says clutch basket and centrifugal shoes are different on a 200m at least

If it were me i would just order the parts then and keep the fat cat parts for when you need them. Im sure you know how hard they can be to find. But, its all up to you. Compare, and if it works then i works. But you risk damaging those parts and potentially your trike probably.

I have some 185s parts if you want to go used, you just rebuilt the fat cat, if you plan to keep the 200 around for a long time, new is typically best for wearable parts like clutches.

I looked it up and the 185s and atc200 share the same clutch basket by part number. I could pull the clutch(s) off and sell you just that, or if you want a spare motor for parts I would take $100 + shipping for the 1982 185s engine. Story on the bike from the last owners is that it ran last fall, and this spring it wouldn't start. I checked it out and it is sucking and blowing out the intake every stroke. Something is wrong with the valve or seat. It had spark when I was messing with it. Here are some photos I have on it, the kid had a hay-day with some spray paint.
