Hi all, I'm from Indiana. I'm a bit younger than most of you guys on here at only 20 so I don't remember these when they were new But still have a lot of good memories on them.
I just got an 86 200x. I used to ride an 83 185s with my dad when i was little but it eventually died and got sold. So i saw a cheap running 86 200x on facebook marketplace a few days ago and had to get it.
It's in rough shape, missing the plastics,headlight and brake light but someone fabbed up a decent light bar mount and left the bar on for me. It also runs really well, i brought it home and adjusted the valves and cam chain and it has no noises now, just purrs away.
Looks like its been rebuilt. i poked around in the cylinder with a bore scope and saw a new 65mm piston, idk if it's a 10:1 compression or a 12.1:1 though.
I ordered new wheel bearings and already ripped the old ones out.
Now im just hunting for a set of rider plastics and lights.:lol::lol:
