this thing is incredibly tight and low hr!! the more i look at it, the more i am amazed!! its a real shame about the surface rust, but she is worthy of the full treatment. you can really tell which pieces had a poor finish from the factory! i rebuilt the carb, got a new air filter, drained the oil. dying to fire it up, i looked around today i have no freakin oil!! i only had about 3/4 of a quart left in the gallon jug of gn4. thought i had another quart around! no dice. gonna get a quart tomorow and fire it up!! oil was clean when i drained it. rear end fluid looks brand new. has every piece of paper work from purchase!! It was 1750.00 brand new in 84! not a single blemish on any decal. brakes work like new. seat and fork boots are perfect, and feel like new! cant wait to ride it! very happy!

Good buy for the money you paid! I'd pay that all day everyday.

Better keep it that way. I just restored an '84 200ES and some parts are nearly impossible to find.

Very sweet survivor Rory. I looks like anything that Honda painted black didn't hold up very well. I couldn't resist temptation to PC all the rusted parts.

I'm really glad you're happy with it Rory. I wanted it to go to a good home, and I knew I had the resources to find one for it. She's a peach!

Rory, you got the deal of a lifetime on that machine. If I had the money I would have scooped it up but I dont :( Good luck with her, if anyone will keep it nice, you will.

Wow! ANOTHER awesome machine. Nice grab, as always, lol. I don't know about anyone else around here, but I'd sure like to see a line up of your collection(pics).

Thats a very sweet trike you got Aldo. There is a nice 200 Big Red about a mile from me. It even has the Hondaline windsheild fairing on it.
