Looking great! If you don't mind me asking, what is the rim you used on the front? I'd like to swap to a 10" front on my 200X.

Its a 10 inch rim with 2+3 offset with a 4x156 bolt pattern, ktm, polaris and yamaha sports quad have that bolt pattern. I had to modifie my front hub though, as you can see in the picture, I cut off the orginal holes, cant find a picture of the finished product lol but it ended up dead center!Originally Posted by YTZ drew

Sweet. I was thinking of doing the same thing, those wheels (4x156 2+3) can be had for $25 free shipping all over eBay, and I have an extra front hub.

Outstanding work congrats on the swap/build it's inspired me to do this swap also I have a stock 84 200x I ride but also have a 85 I bought a wile back with the motor blown in pieces so I been looking around for a CRF230F to buy and swap in the motor.

i was just about to buy an 84 honda 200x ..... motor was shocked for only $100 but then i recieved the worst news the kids tells me that his dad won't let him sell it cuz its not his.
i didn't even know that it wasn't his. the kid said it was his dads. He also had a 85 honda 200x for $250 kick start stripped but he sold that so he offered me this 84 for $100.(( i told about earlier in this post)))
I was going to do a swap like this if i found a motor to buy to put in it.

You did a great job on that swap, I would love to have a 230 in my x. I may have to try that front wheel, thanks for the tip.

Very nice, Been wanting to do that for awhile. A side note though, to help others when doing this, I'm pretty sure you can just use the 200x intake & carb on the 230 head! That way you don't have to notch the frame.
