200X Blaster

[Xpress]

Well? How much lines up??????

I have seen 2nd gen 200x motors used in blasters in the past. I dont see why it wont work the other way around.

[ironchop]

seriously take a cameraphone pic or something because I`m WAY interested in this idea and if you got one to bolt in stop teasing us...heck, set one loose in the frame so we can see....anything

Xpress....I thought ALL Blaster motors were beat to hell...most commonly blown up quad in the used market short of a Warrior

I would like a cheap two-stroke for a 200x chassis conversion but it has to be feasible economically or I would rather buy a liquid R with a way better chassis....Blaster HP stuff is plentiful which gives huge points to this swap v. 250R

are Blaster HP motor parts expensive?...edit to say DC covered this in his post and I looked it up...and WOW Vito`s is very reasonable which makes racing a 200X I already have more feasible with the 250s....and I`m sick of rebuilding 4strokes when a pinger is sssssooooo much easier

this sounds like a great idea

pics please.

sweeet!!!!! i started to build one out of my tri-z parts bike, but never got around to finshing it

the blaster motor is an awesome motor. alot of possibilities for them motors. throw on a 240 bigbore kit and them motors come to life. add better reeds, bigger carb, a port and polish, timing advancer, lightened crank, they move. my blaster's motor is tweaked to its max, and i love it. and its one of the most dependable two stroke motors i have ever had. you'll have to find a way around the single downtube on the 83-85 x frame though for the exhaust...

240bb kit isnt even really needed, nice yes but needed no.. a $200 port job and a $65 head redesign will net huge gains, and blasters can be relaible if taken care of, its the kids that beat the snot out of them, run them lean, hot seise and cold seise is the problem, in the hands of someone who knows how to maintain, tune, and ride there very dependable! iv herd of guys on modded blaster going 5-10 years on a top end

a 86 200x would be perfect as the frame would alow for the pipe, but with some minor tweeking a right side pipe should be the trick

Okay, I can't do anything with this until I graduate MMI and move back to NY, but my brother has been test fitting it, kind of. The swing arm mount lines up very well which is what I was most worried about. I have an idea for the exhaust pipe, and all other mounts just need a fabricated piece to make everything work in unison. Teaser pictures!!





Honda owns so hard that other companies copies their motor mounts. Frame is an 84 and the engine is a 94. I can't wait to get home!! Whoever does this before me, you're just a douche. Haha. Nah, to each their own, this will be my favorite bike. Just please, don't use my color scheme. (Black white and blue)

[curtis slawson]

so it just bolts right up to stock motor mounts? or did you have to make new ones?

[Dirtcrasher]

I can't think of many motor swaps that don't need new mounts and spacers made along with the other issues to deal with. It can be done well or just thrown together.

I would not put that motor in an 83-85 200X. That solid downtube is right in the way of the exhaust. Even the 83/84R would fit up much better to a Blaster as well as the Tri-Z. I'm not sure if the positioning would be better with an 86/87 200X, I'd have to take a good look at it.........

hey, just move the lower part of the cradle up about 10 inches. just do it!!

[shortbus]

Sorry to dig up a old thread, but i have a blaster & a 200x sitting in my garage, has anyone done this yet?

[willrideanythin]

A YZ490 is very close to the blaster in sizes and mounting. Use that for an istant 55 hp

[shortbus]

Although that would be cool, just wanted to see if there is a update on this.

[snakpacs]

looks like i won

Well? How much lines up??????

Bringing this thread back from the dead! I recently came acquired a roller 86' 200X that needs a heart. I've already got a stock 86 and one with a 200SX motor in it......so this swap interests me. Has there been anyone who has actually finished this swap? Or a different air cooler 2 stroke motor in the 86/87 200X frame? I have seen the one with the CR125 motor. Thanks!
