Catch me if you can
Well you could pay me an enormous amount of money for them
One of those guides matches the 85, the other, (Check Parts Unlimited), I'm not sure on the other.

If your looking for the (gear) part of cam well i suppose it looks like it is removable BUT to find a new (gear) i would think is near impossible. I dont think i've seen a worn out 86/87 cam gear. Cam lobes yes.Originally Posted by 250ES5984
Yup new guides are $$$ you probably already know that.
Good luck, you gotta get it running for spring!!!!

So it seems like a number of parts are interchangeable between the 200x and sx. Are the motors the same?

Well, the top half is. Bottom end not so much just a couple small odds +ends.
Then you have the 86/87 fatcat , the 89-9? trx200d but the rockers dont have the decompression stub molded into them.

Ok, so with that said, would the timing chain guides interchange? I would think so myself unless something mounts different. If they will interchange, should the honda part number be the same?

The part #'s will be close i think the first five digits would be the same, then the next 3#'s would change per model.
If u try searchine those machines for the guides it wont work any better, but u may find trx's used guides are cheaper because some sellers dont know.

The guy building my motor for me called 2 nights ago and told me that the guides and tensioner were all okay, so that's one less thing to worry about.
Got my piston kit, gasket set, and carb rebuild in yesterday. Just waiting on clutch kit.
Stupid me forgot to order a right cover gasket when I ordered the clutch kit, so still have that to do along with ordering a timing chain.
Where or what brand is a better chain? Have looked at them on Honda parts warehouse, bike bandit, and motorsport.com. just curious if one is any better than any other.
Thanks, Chandler.

Thanks Shep. I appreciate all of the advice. Just ordered the timing chain you linked.
It seems you're pretty knowledgeable when it comes to the 86 and 87s.
More updates as they come.

Oh there's definetly more knowledgeable people on this site on the 86/87. All the info you could ever need is
On here written somewhere you just have to dig for it. Now if u needed info on the 83-85 i couldnt tell u squat.....

Well, I've looked over some of your posts and I think I seen a YouTube video of the green framed bike? Just knowing that you've built one or two already means you know a lot more than I do about them.
