Scrapped the suspension idea, added 250r forks to 200e
I took the swinger off the 250r and made a braket for it, welded her all up and it works great. The piston also came in for the engine so its all back together. But i have one problem, i bent the jet holder. I took the one out of the 250r carb and put it in the 200es. Will this work? So far all i get is it will almost start but not quite. Please help me here, i think the stupid thing is discontinued. Ill get pics up of the frame soon, gotta go out and get it running first!

I would really like to see your rear suspension. I have a 200es that is begging to be suspended. As for your questions, sorry, can't help.

not sure but i think the two carbs would not work together. i picked up a 200s that had a 200x carb on it and i still can't figure a way to get it right so good luck. I also would realy like to see what you did with the frame sounds cool.

Here she is. Not even close to being done as you can see
. I still need to make the mount for the rear brake, make some sort of chain tensioner, get the motor running good, and if it can be done, put on some 250r front forks, triples and all. Will they fit?

Pretty mad scientist to me hell i would have just looked for a 200X you should take off your tires and support your axel at the same height to make sure your bracket is straight if not when the suspension is compressed it may lean to one side causing for some crazy handeling!! but hey

that will not last one ride. sorry
not to mention the fact that the pivot point and engine sprocket are so far off that you will never keep a chain on it.

thats why im making a chain tightener, im thinking a little spring loaded sproket that keeps constant tension on the chain.
And what do you mean it wont last one ride! Ive already jumped on it and beat it with a sledge to test the welds. Its solid as hell. When i get the engine running ill post a vid and show you up!!! (hopefully)

Those swinger pivot points look weak as hell. But sweeet idea.

Good thinking - but at the very very least - you need braces where I have drawn red line - otherwise it will fold like a wet cardboard box on anything but smooth pavement.

sorry... but that just doesn't look braced enough... nothing keeps it from swaying back and forth and breaking those 2 ears off.... and you have cotter pins holding the swingarm on....
Also, is that shock mount just welded to the side of that frame strut-piece. If so, i would weld a piece of steel across the frame and to the mount... it looks like alot of weight sitting on that mount...
so.....
1. Make gussets on those ears and to the frame.
2. Get a swing arm bolt and actually bolt it on...
3. More shockmount reinforcement
4. Health insurance
no i'm not being mean... but it just doesn't look safe.... spend a little more time and reinforce that thing...

yeah, theres definately gonna be more braces added. The pivot point is accually welded to shiat, but i will rienforce it it you think its needed. I dont know what 200x Basket's so concerned about, he even posted a topic "someone help this guy out" wtf? I even said its not even close to being done, how can you say anything if its not done yet, im posting pics up to show my idea, and get feedback on how to make it work. Both the trikes i picked up were completely foojed, so i thought id make 1 out of the 2. I have a good 200m as a dialy rider, this is just a winter project for me.

and as for the swinger bolt, i have to find a nut to fit it, the cotter pins just holding it while i work on it.

Catch me if you can
Sorry, it does not look safe.... Is that 1/4" x 1" plate or something?
That whole mess should be chopped off, the "V" chopped off of the rear of your frame and a tubular piece welded right to your frame with the middle area between the swingarm filled in also. As for the comment about the chain, I agree with that also. That pivot point is what? 10"'s away from the sprocket??
Not tryin to hurt any pride here but if any portion of that fails you are gonna get F'd up real bad.
I'd also try to duplicate the original shock angle a bit closer.
