200x

[Rykogon831]

I have had my Honda 200x for about half a year already. Its a great bike but I want to make it faster.Does anyone know where or how I can get my trike faster.

[vartiak15]

exhaust, bigger carb, cam, gearing, and a k&n bolt on filter with outerwear. um and you can bore it out, i bet someone says some bs how they are bored to their max but that is bull. got any pics?

[jason200x]

dont bor it. its the worst upgrade you can do. b/c what do you do when it really doe sneed bore and its already at 80? dotn bore it. gearing cam high comp piston exhaust k and n filter bigger carb get better hook up with better tires.

[clong]

I have an 83 thats bored with 12 to1 compression, supertrap exhaust, K&N, drilled air box, performance piston and its still no that fast like a 250R but its a solid runner with good torque. Its did beat a 2002 Blaster thoguh.

[jason200x]

shouldnt be that far behind a 250r.


what kind of fuel do you run form the pump?

[vartiak15]

o and welcome to the bord :trikesown

[smokinp]

What year 200x are you talking about?

They are practically bored to the max, it started out as a 100cc engine :rolleyes: , boring the 200x out is one of the worst things you could do. Like jason200x said, cam, bigger carb, wiseco piston and a K&N filter is the SMART way of modding your X, save what little bore they do have left for rebuilds. A 350X modded to heck and back would have a hard time keeping up with a good running 85-86R. There is nothing you can do to a 200X that will make it even come close to an R, without a engine swap that is :D

They can still be bored but there aren't any "big bore" kits for it so even if you bore it to the max, you would only be getting a couple of cc's which wouldn't help enough to notice.

I think i asked this before but didn't really get a answer, will a 250 r motor fit in a 200x?

[vartiak15]

yes it will fit. with some major mods.

[Wickedfinger]

The air cooled ones have the chain on the wrong side, and the liquid cooled ones would require MAJOR modification ..... You would be better off buying the whole R. There really is no conceivable reason to do such a conversion.

[Rykogon831]

Thanks for all the advice. All i need to do now is to save some money. I dont have pictures yet, but i will pretty soon.

[Tankus]

k , maybe a stupid question but... 350x motoer fit a 200x frame?

To be honest your better off selling the 200X and buying something quicker. 250r,t3,or a z. I would recommend a aircooled 250r to start you out so you can get use to the 2 stroke power. I dont think you really wanna dump tons of money in your X so it become more un reliable?

[86350xhauler]

I would just buy a 350X. Has all the power you need and more. It will keep up with 250R's. I have raced plenty.

[BigGreenMachine]

We all know the answer to this guys problem...125r plain and simple. :-D
Thats where you put a Cr 125 two-stroke motor into a 200x frame like the old racers did. Makes for a sweet bike.

what do you mean so it will become more unreliable? they are good trikes.

[mudduck14843]

i bored my 200x 2mm or 80 over...
i run alky or race fuel ONLY
but the thing is still bulletproof!!!

[samster143]

Why not bore out to MAX? I buy the cylinders off ebay for like $10.0 ea. bore it 2mm over, when it gets worn throw it away and get another one. I believe the 2mm would be noticed with an engine of such meager output. Every bit helps.

This kinda attitude is the reason why the 400 chevy is almost extinct and 350s are getting harder to find. Destroy all the good parts and leave nothing for others. :evil:

12:1 piston and a midrange-top end cam with a good exhaust and maybe a new bigger carb should make a world of difference.

I agree with Jason200x, don't bore it unless you need to. Not worth it. You might gain some, but it will only be a little over just doing 12:1 w/std bore. And if you "bore it to the max" it will run hotter due to thinner cylinder walls. You do however need to do the cam. When you do the hi compression piston you will realize a big mid range to top end power increase with a high duration cam.

With exhaust, 12:1 piston, mid-top end cam, maybe port work, and carb/ air cleaner, you should get about a 35-50% power increase. Sound good enough?

Waa.Waa.Waa.

Very witty retort. :rolleyes:

Well 350Xhauler to tell you the truth a 350X will not even come close to beating or keeping up the an R. For one thing the 250 is 2 stroke and the 350 is 4 stroke big difference there, the 350X is 100 more cc's but the 250R's has 100 less cc but is 2 stroke, big difference there.

[jason200x]

and the r's lighter to

[86350xhauler]

250R4life, you have your own version of the story, but considering I have both of the bikes and all of my friends have those bikes, I am pretty sure I know that a 350X will beat a 250R.Peace.

This dude is smoking some good stuff. I tell you what I dont know where you live but come down here to my area and if you can out run my R with your 350X you can have mine and everyone on this board can see this post so they will be the witness to this bet. Here is the prize you will be shooting for, so come on down

[samster143]

Is that where you play Bingo?

[dividebyzero]

Hmmm...sounds interesting.I could use another r in my garage!

[250R4life]

452x LOL put it this way there is know way you will beat that R,Put it this way, you are trying to say that your 452X will beat an R, well DUHHHHH, of course your going yo beat it you have yours bored out and stuff, its like your 452X racing my friends dad's 690 sparks raptor, there is know way your going to beat it. Well my point is of course your going to beat that R because you have yours bored and stuff,well put a 310 on that R and theres no way your going to beat that!!!!!!!! :D

[86350xhauler]

All of you two-strokers are scared that a big ol four will beat you. It's ok to be scared. I could also use a new r.

[jason200x]

alright the last 2 or 3 post were stupid. look at it this way.


put a 250r motor in a 350x and race it aginst a 250r.

race a 250r with a 350x engien aginst a 350x.

and if you still think your better both you race two stock bike and see whos the better rider

and for the 2 vs. 4 strokes look at it like this

race a 200x vs. a cagica 200 durrrrrrrrrrr um let see who gunna win here?

any guesses?

[86250RZ]

Hey sounds like a good run to me, I'll take you up on that bet 452X It may be close but I think I could take ya in a 300 foot run, my bike runs tip top, as good as new maybe a little better with the few minor out side engine mods. My Bro owns a 2004 500cc Predator W/ aftermarket pipe, air box mod, dial a jet, aftermarket cdi and Dyno jets and I blew his plastics off. 4 runs and 4 wins for the R. If you still dont believe me I will post pics of Predator and my R side by side and have my bro get on here and regretfully admit it. Oh by the way I know the Predator is heaver than your 350X but it was no contest. I think It would be a good run who ever gets the best start would probably win.

[84250r]

Line'em up! I want to race just for the heck of it. Any of you guys going to trikefest?? How about you,86350xhauler? This could get quite interesting. :D

[speed20]

I disagree about making it faster by boring it, jetting it, pipe, filter, and stuff like that....all that is going to do is give you more power and to get up to speed quicker...the only way you will go faster is if you change your gearing, or tire size.

[86250RZ]

All of you two-strokers are scared that a big ol four will beat you. It's ok to be scared. I could also use a new r.

I tell you what 86350xhauler :rolleyes: , put you trike where your mouth is and I will own me a 350X, I dont know where you live but i'm sure a like new 250R would be well worth your trip, so come on, I'm waiting and I'm not scared one little bit.

I agree,i think it would be close.No one said it had to be stock so that's why i just put in my $.02.Since i have both(when they were stock) and ran them repeatedly,yes,the r would walk away from the x. ;)

[86250RZ]

Well the tread was ment for stock vs stock, but I have no problem with the statement you made about your trike, you have all the reason to be proud of that awsome looking 350X. I have never witnessed a thumper trike like your 350X pumped up that high and I think all we 2 stroke lovers (I know I would) would love to mount that X and feel it's gut wrenching torque. You've done an awsome job with it. IMO
