I Finally Got My X!!!

[KI4UJO]

This has an easy solution:
1. Use cut off wheel to remove quad kit
2. Build two trikes.

It's that easy!

Quad kit looks like a bolt on. And it's already half disassembled.

I'm going to take the top end and swap with the existing top end on my 85 Auto-X.
I'll have proper fitting exhaust too.

The only part I didn't get was the two inner cases of the bottom half and anything attached to them.

So I had just picked this up before work. I literally walked in the door and punched in with one minute to spare or it would have been a two hour tardy.

Finally got home and dug through the box. The bottom is a bunch of random bolts, motor mounts and other random small parts.


Brand new complete gasket and seal set. Brand new front brake shoes.


Head pipe is in great shape. Silencer has a huge dent and some cobbled clamps.


The top end. Cam shaft and timing sprocket are in the bottom of the box.


What can be done about this?


Right side engine cover with kicker and a couple other bits attached. Final drive cover. Also, still attached to the machine is the clutch cover or the stator cover?

All the bottom end parts are for sale or trade. I'm open to offers.

Buddy of mine said I should have my triples machined and cut these 81 XR250R shocks down and put them on my 85 Auto-X. He said I should be able to use the cherry Hondaline speedo I took off the XR also. They are beefier and have better springs I guess? Otherwise I gotta sell this stuff. It's taking up valuable space.



So is my idea to put the 200x cylinder and head on the ATC200 motor feasible or will it not work? The cam shaft and exhaust as well. I'm currently cleaning and rebuilding the 200x carb. Hopefully it won't dump gas like the unknown carb in use right now. Is it possible to connect a key switch and neutral light to my setup? I have a spare dash from a 84 125m I'd like to use.

I was swapping wheels around yesterday and discovered I have 2" spacers on the 85 Auto-X. Score! Seems like the hubs are wobbly though.

Still would like to know if the XR forks are possible. Also if a key switch and neutral light are possible. Hoping a couple gurus find my thread!

[honda200xguy]

damn right thats a good deal!

[yaegerb]

That cylinder needs a new sleeve.....

[DasUberKraut]

Thank you, yaeger. I kinda thought so, but I wasn't positive.

[honda200xguy]

you payed a bill for the auto x?
WTF lucky

[DasUberKraut]

Yeah I did. I was reluctant to spill the beans for what I paid. It's a pretty sick score. Both of em really.

Hi, i see this post is old but just felt the need to comment on it haha, manbearpig, the foot pedal is most likely a 185 or 200, the 200x foot pedal would never work as its WAY to short and would essentially be underneath the clutch cover making it useless. Also you probably have it fixed now but you said your exhaust was barely on there? Well i'll show you a picture of mine, works great! I had a 1/4 inch piece of aluminum and cut it out to what you see in the pic, like a triangle with a square at the end lol, works amazing! Mines 200M top end on a 185 bottom end.

[DasUberKraut]

Cody... This thread is only a month old. LOL. I like your grab bar. I have a hand crafted one myself. Not as cool as yours. Getting it duplicated this weekend.

As for the brake pedal. It's not cobbled by any means. It's built right into the foot peg. My best guess is that's it's aftermarket or from a XR or CR. I'll take some close ups tomorrow. I'm at work til 1 am tonight.

[DasUberKraut]

As for my exhaust... It seems like the head pipe is bent inward some towards the center of the frame. Both silencers I have appear to be too big for the head pipe as well. I have the 200x head pipe. Not sure if it will fit the ATC200 top end or not. It's going to be a while before I swap for the 200x top end. I just hope I can seal it a little better so I don't get harassed on the state trails.

Put my Bear Claws with Douglas .190 rims on the X today. Does it look a little too wide with the spacers on it? Opinions please! It handles like a dream. Just looks wide to me. Notice how I lucked out and the tread patterns lined up almost balls on. That right there can make a guy smile. Not to mention how much more it smooths out the ride. I have the tires at atmospheric pressure for now. I may add a couple lbs though.

Thinking I may cut a fender reinforcing plate for the recessed area at the back like the 90's have. Maybe diamond plate or or just flat aluminum stock.

Painted up these Renthal aluminum handle bars with some flat black to cover the purple. The bars came off the XR250R I parted. If I have time tomorrow. I will put them on my X I'm currently looking for my new grips I have stashed in a box.
