Bigger piston 12:1 I believe that's what he said new cam port and polishing The works Everything new and improved .I can not reamber all the stuff he said he was going to do to it . But I will post all new parts once he sends me a list. Has any one heAr had there bike worked on by Ct racing ?? I'm try and send my top end off next week . I'm also getting New tire's and rims and new axel by Durablue and hubs new chain new fork boots and new brakes cylinders from and back . If any one knows where I can have my rear shock worked on that would help a lot I just won't new seals and gas put into it .? I will post pics as the build goes on 240574 my 85 200x

Just ordered a new clutch kit too

[yaegerb]

Had a 200x head ported and flowed with a five angle valve grind from CT once. Worked pretty well.

How was its leisure riding mannerisms with the modifications? Was it just the porting?

Worked just fine putting around. Worked great when hammering the throttle.

Quite a bit. You could definitely feel it in the pants. It's not cheap though. Blow the Cobb webs out of your wallet.

[Bama88]

It ant that pricey. When all said and done time I'm finished with the bike I have around 2,500 in it

[yaegerb]

How much is CT charging you for the head work?

[Doug8765]

CT does good work they did my yfz 450 it's a rocket

He said for everything 700 to 800

[Bama88]

That's new piston port and polish and new cam and a few more thing I can't remember

[AZ1320]

how trailable is you bike with the work done by CT? and I have heard nothing but good stuff about CT.

[Bama88]

This is the rear master cylinder I bought from eBay to go onto 85 200x. It's off an 2006 Kawasaki Ninja . I will post more pic once I put it on the bike . I could not find a new rear master cylinder for the 200x. so I went with this one everything I read so far says it will fit . 240788

[Bama88]

One more question I pulled the spark plug out of my engine and it's a DR7EA not a DR8eal. Should I put the called for plug back in it or get anouther DR7ea ?

[86125m]

the dr7ea and the dr8eal are substitutes for the dr8es-l I think my 200x had a dr7ea when I got it as well but the correct plug is a ngk dr8es-l. honestly though it really doesn't matter whatever plug your honda dealer says will fit and has in stock will be just fine.

[Bama88]

This is the fork boots I bought the ones that are on my bike now are dry rotted. I will post pic once I put them on 240839240840

[86125m]

I have the same boots on my 200x and they look great and the best part is the rubber is super thick just like the oem boots.

[Bama88]

Since I'm going to a 20-10-9. In the rear should I go with a smaller front tire too. ?

[Bama88]

How do u I adjust the rear shock on 200x

[yaegerb]

Change rebound or change stiffness?

[Bama88]

[Bama88]

I have need help can any one tell how to put my new cam in time. It is a web 362/362

[yaegerb]

Put cylinder and head on the motor. Ensure piston is at TDC. Put cam in, lobes down. Make sure to put some sort of grease on lobes and camshaft where it rides on the head journals and rear bushing. Also fill up the head pocket with the same oil you will put in the bike. Place cam gear and chain on shaft with the "0" at 12 o clock. Use 1211 bond, or equivalent (spread thin) on surface of head and rocker box. Torque rocker box to cinch cam in place. Tighten cam gear to cam 7-9 ft lbs. then, follow this.

Thank you so much I was stressed out over not knowing how to put it back in time . I will get some sleep tonight. I got one more question. Can I just rejet my carb or will I half to put a bigger carb on it ? If so what carb

[yaegerb]

What all is done to the motor? And the "grease" on your cam should be molybdenum.

It been bored to 66mm with a 10:1 compression I was going to go 12:1 but changed my mind. And I got a web camshaft 362/362 Port and polish head new everything in head .

[350for350]

I don't think it would be necessary for you to get a bigger carb. You could always try one a ways down the road if you feel like experimenting.

That is what I was thinking I was just going to rejet the original carb .

[yaegerb]

24mm stock will be fine. Disassemble carb, set it in berry chem for a 1-2 days, rinse with warm water and clean with toothbrush. I then bead blast them. If you can't bead blast then clean uber spotless with tooth brush and high pressure air. Then pick up a shindy rebuild kit and replace all components. Then go to jetsrus and pick up some genuine keihin main jets 118, 115, 112, 110, 108 and a 40 pilot. Start with 118, needle clip in middle position and 40 pilot. You will probably end up with a 115/112 main. Plug porcelain should look like a brown paper bag when jetted properly. Also, replace OEM filter with a oiled uni and use airbox lid. That should be ball park.

2nd pic in post 31 is your head back from CT ? You'll be happy with her when she's done. If I were you,I would put a pause on this,.get a degree wheel, research,research,research, learn how to use it, and then assemble your top end with it. You will pick up some ponies and have no hesitation everything is correct.

[Bama88]

Thanks so much yaegerb. I will go ahead and order them ��.

Impact driver and heat. Stick a penny between the gears so it won't move on you.
