    Three wheeler guys probably have the biggest balls out of all the ATV/Motorcycle riders. You just have to be a little twisted to ride them, and you have to be a great rider to do so.

    you can use the 350x shock but you would have to fab a mount for it or get your 200x shock rebuilt for you weight .

    They use to make HD aftermarket shock springs for the 200x because when you install a +2 swingarm you need a stiffer shock . I know you prob dont have the longer swinger but the spring would probably do the trick . Also did you tighten the springs nuts down to make the shock stiffer ?
