    how fast you want to go depends on how deep your pocket book is. it would be cheaper to put a larger motor in it than trying get alot of performance out of a 200 but you can get the 200 to perform.

    I think the TRX200sx is the chain drive 1986-1988 model? I had three of them that I sold last winter. Unless you mean the earlier model that was shaft drive?

    The 86-88 200sx engine is most similar to the 86/87 200x engines, but auto clutch, reverse, and e-start/pull start. I wanted to put a 200s engine in one of my SX frames, but it wasn't even close. They are not really a fast quad, I suppose 86/87 200X upgrades would work on the top end, such as higher compression piston, good cam. But the fear with auto-clutches is overpowering them. I'd suggest riding it as it is, maybe get a 250X or 300ex for more power and speed.

    Sell the 200SX and buy her a Blaster. Whatever it takes to get that SX going faster is going to cost a lot more time and money than it would to just get something faster. There are certain machines that nobody bothers to modify, and for good reason. You can't polish a turd, or in this case you just shouldn't.

    well i used to have a an sx when i was a kid, and loved it. i wish i still had it. i always wanted to mod one up. someday i'll find another and put the ideas i have in my head to work and see what the end result is. i know its not a common wheeler to mod, and that there is few and far in between mods for them on the market, but thats where ingenuity and customization take over. i always wanted to stuff a punched and modded 200x motor in one, make myself some better front suspension, and rear suspension, cut the plastics a certian way, like i said the image inside my head looks better then what i can explain, lol. some may ask why, the answer, because i can!!! i have seen stupider stuff done.

    1 - sell the quad
    2 - start a savings account with the money
    3 - make weekly deposits in the saving account til you have enough to buy a liquid cooled 2 stroke trike
    4 - enjoy the 250SX until then
    Of course I may be a little biased, I don't like quads. I guess that's why I'm here, lol
