Hey All,
I recently got an 84' Honda 200M from a couple of guys who had hot wired, jerry rigged, and did just about anything and everything you could think of to short-cut their way into riding this trike for the short term, including welding a bunch of pieces to each-other(poorly I might add).
One of the things that they welded the crap out of was the front forks, so it is not only miss aligned, but it has no suspension and now the threads on the axle are ruined. This leaves me in the market for a whole new front fork set up.
Sooooo, my question is this. How interchangeable are the front forks on the Honda 200's? Do I need the 84' "M" specifically or can I use any of the 200 model forks? The forks that are currently on there have the cage around the headlight which I would like to keep as well as the front brake set up which I believe I can re-use once I cut the axle off. Is there anything that you can think of that I should look out for when shopping for some replacement parts?
Thanks a million!
