It's an 85 going by the sticker on the tank, but the only way to really know is by looking up the number on the frame.

85 did not have black forks, but it coulda been changed, as well as the tank. But it's an 83-85.

THere is absolutely no way to tell from that photo. It cna only be classified as an 83-85.

Just like my 85 200x. I didn't even look at the forks in the picture.

How much did the 200x frame change from the first generation (83-85) to the second generation (86-87) suspension wise, and what else changed?

COmpletely differant ergonomics. If you could take a 350X and shrink it, both in chassis and engine....youve got an 86-87 200X

Yeah the 83-85 200X's have the round tubing, 86-87 200X's have the square tubing........

Has the suspension changed much from the 83-85 models compared to the 86-87 models? I heard the 1986-1987 200x's had 7.2 inches of travel on the rear monoshock, and 7.6 inch travel on the forks. Is this the same for 83-85? Thanx.

O yeah, I FINALLY GOT THAT 200x ROLLER!!!!
