I bought a 85 200x that needs alot of work and I'd like to swap a 97 300ex motor that I aquired into it. Any help with advice would be greatly appreciated.

I dont think a 350x frame is in the picture, I wouldnt molest a 350x. I've always liked the 350x and thats really about the only reason I bought the 200x was to molest lol. Im not prejudice but 200cc bike dont do much for me even though I own a KTM 200exc with motard wheels. 2 strokes are just different. I have a old 86 xr 600r and contemplated putting that motor in the 200x but got talked out of it but a few friends.

i was just trying to say that the 200x frame is a lot smaller then the 350x it would be a lot better to use that instead of a 200x a 300ex motor is a dirct bolt in to to 350x frame

No problem, streching frame is no big thing, can do. I didnt mean to be snappy just a little tired. thanks for your help
