$150 86 200x

[atc300r]

Thought I would start a thread on this trike.I picked up this 86 200x on Saturday 6/17/17. I was at a local Honda dealer buying new riding goggles for my wife and picking up parts. The owners son asked me if I liked working on trikes.I told him yes he said I have an 86 200x out back if you are interested its rough .I went out looked at it checked if it turned over and had compression and checked a few other things. He was asking $250 for it I offered $100 we settled on $150.I got it running on Monday but it was flooding realy bad. Today I replaced the float needle and it runs great and starts on the first kick. Im going to fix it up for a rider maybe race it once or twice.244193 244194 244195

250R rims I'm guessing. You can get the bracket and rear brake caliper from a place called CyclesRUs in Ohio. They are bolt on and New. Pads of any brand run around $40. I've had no issues with mine.

Yes the front is 83-84 250r rim and hub. The rear are from my 85 250r I swapped them out with the paddle tires that came on it.

My first thought when I bought it was if it didnt run I could part it out.

[Tri-Z 250]

They make for a great buddy bike. No arm ripping power but a ton of fun to ride. If you don't want to go through the efforts and expense I understand. You do have a good base to a race trike and it's whole enough. Be a shame to split it up as to passing it along for a few less bucks.

Because it runs well and mostly there Im going to keep it .It wont take much to get it ride/race worthy.I have my 83 auto x and 84 200x aswell as 3 250rs.Thank for the tip on rear brake caliper.

Good score for $150. I'd keep it too and fix her up.

[atc300r]

Rear subframe is bent down at the grab bar mounts.Im going to heat it and pry it back in place.244196

Your gonna like yer 2gen X. Frames are out there not impossible to find; that looks fixable to me. Great thing is your buy in is low and it's worth upward of $1200 in beat plastic running conditions. You put $700 in it and with some elbow grease you'll never go wrong. Great save! Good luck with it.

Nice score, too bad about the grab bar though.

I need a clutch cable so I can test ride it.I rode it on Monday but it wasnt running very well.Clutch was slipping in higher gears not sure if it was the cable causing it.Anyone have a kick starter for 86-87 200x.

I have a kick starter for an 86 200x, it's missing the small ball bearing and spring in the socket, but I imagine you could come up with a replacement. Right now it wobbles pretty good but works. The arm leans a little forward because it's worn where it latches when you open it to kick. You can have it, not sure what shipping would be for it, but PM me your address and I can get it in the mail tomorrow or the weekend if you want it. I can post a pic of it tonight, I'm at work right now.

Attached are the quick pics you requested 300r. It wouldn't let me post them w/o a URL for your PM, so I gave up while watching my Royals play:)

I had a set of 88 trx 250r fenders . I retro fit them to my 86 200x.

Funny story about this.I was on my way to the dump when I was at the stop light I saw a truck and trail loaded with scrap.I followed the guy to the gas station when he turned in I saw the 200x frame.I let him know he had a brake light out and offered $20 for the 200x frame.He didnt want to dig it out so he got my phone number and called me when he got back in town.It has frontend, swingarm ,axle and shock .Shock works.Axle is straight, rear sprocket is good.253069253070
