I have a 85 200 x that it is bored out .30 over, I have a pipe, jetted, and was looking to buy a performance cam. I was looking at the webcams and it says it is geared towards mid and top. Would there be a noticable difference by replaceing the cam. Thanks in advance

I noticed a big improvement going from the stock 200s cam to a xr200 camshaft. The xr, is of course, the honda dirtbike that uses the same motor as the 3-wheelers.

You can pick up one of these new from service honda for less than $60.

Thanks stuydytime, I will probably go that route. I have never really been around performance cams before and wasn't sure if you can see a pretty noTicible difference. Thanks

What year XR200 do you specify when you order the cam?
