    Quick, Simple 200es/200x Carb and Cam Question

    Simple: Can I take the intake, and carb, off of an 86 200X, and directly swap it onto my 84 200es?


    Can an 86 X cam be used as well?
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    Bump



    Determined the X intake will not work, so I am gonna have to try and find a good ES intake.


    But anyway, will the carb fit? IIRC it's the same style, only a few MM bigger. I'm thinking the cam will swap out as well, not positive though.

    Come one, nobody has the slightest idea?

    Seeing if the carb will work is no problem, but I really want to know if anyone else has any clue on the 86 X cam, before I start opening engines.

    from what i can tell from parts on ebay - who usualy list what they work in.. The ATC 185, ATC 200, ATC 200x from 1980-1985 use the same cam(or at least can be interchanged)

    I've sent you a message with an intake boot you could buy for cheap.

    It looks like the 86 uses a different cam.. but i would honestly see if it fits. Everyone said my dad couldn't put Honda goldwing 1200gl heads on the 1100.. and he did, runs like a bat out of hell lol
    I just wanna go fast. If your not first, your last!!

    Looks like the 86 200x cam has a ball bearing at one end, as opposed to the bushing you find on the 85 200x.

    D'aw.

    Well I guess I can always put parts on here to trade. Anyone want to trade a first gen cam for a second gen?

    Not really, it's still in an 86 X right now.
