84 Big Red 200ES Hubs

[Muggle]

I was wondering if rear hubs from a 450r or anything else would fit on the 84 big red 200es? The 4/150 pattern isn't too common, i can't find any spacers or aluminum rims, so i'd like to swap them out.

Hmmmm, lemme do some quick thinkin'.


The hubs off of a 450R will also fit a 400/300ex IIRC, those hubs will fit an 86 200x. Hubs off of a '79 Odyssey will fit an '86 200x. Those hubs will fit on my 84 Red.


The hubs should, but I don't think they'd fit the stock wheels.

the 200es has 24 spline hubs, almost all honda hubs are 24's. the 450's should slide right on, though you may have to use a washer as a spacer over the axle cone.

What would be the best hubs to use? I don't have any yet, i would be just buying them, but do they have different bolt patterns? I plan on using some of the block style spacers, 2.5" on each side, and then some aluminum rims, same size as stock.

Well, 400ex hubs will widen it out a couple inches.


I don't trust axle extenders, they have been nothing but trouble in my experiance, and they make it a hell of alot easier to bend an axle.

Is it possible to get aluminum rims that are offset, so that combined with the hubs i'll have a wider rear end?

[Chazz of Blades]

The 400ex hubs will widen it by themselves, it they fit the wheels.

I've heard of people just turned around the wheels and widening them some like that.

honda 400ex/300ex/250x/450r, all these hubs are the same. they allow you the 4/110 bolt pattern. the wheel selection for this bolt pattern is numerous to say the least, big, small, wide, bead locks, etc etc etc etc.

I recently bought some hubs for my 84 big red. They are for the 300/400 ex. They bolt on just fine. They are 4/110 bolt pattern. Compared to stock. They each move the wheel out 3/4". Adding a total of 1 1/2" to the width. Then got some douglas aluminum rims. 9x9 with the 6+3 offset.
Total added width. 4 1/2".

just dont do like the idiot that sold me my trike did, weld the hubs on..

[Muggle]

I like your setup trikeman! Are your wheels still 25 inches? What kind of tire did you use? I've been looking for 12x9 rims but I haven't found any, I wanted to use the tires I already have.

He is running 9x9 rims with 25-12-9 tires.

What other rim sizes would fit 25-12-9 tires?
