200 big red shocks fit a 200m and a 200s?

Would the shock tubes of a 200 big red fit a 200m and a 200s?

[Howdy]

Nope. The 200 Big Reds are uniqe. The actual fork tubes are part of the triple tree.

The 200m & 200s fork stubes slide into and clamp in the triple trees.

Howdy you must be thinking of something else because the fork tubes I have off a 200 big red just slide right into the triple.

crd00 - you must not have an OEM Big Red front end on that bike. Got a picture we could see? I need to rebuild mine and it is just as Howdy describes.

Heres a link of them, they came straight off a 200 big red

They may have came straight off the bike, but they are not the right ones!
those look like 1985 big red or maybe ATC200 or 200S - 100% positive you don't have 1984 200ES forks.

OOOOOOOOOO I didnt know that the 84 shocks were different then the 85's. These are 85's then, so will they fit a 200m or a 200s, because they slide right out of the triple

The 85-87 Honda 250es Big Red shocks do NOT inner change with any other machine to my knowledge. The 200m-200s shocks are smaller in diameter.
