    what's up 3 wheeler world!!! this is my 85 200x.... the tank and rear plastics are from my 84... I am wondering what engine will fit into the frame of my 84... I just took it down to the frame to restore my 85... this trike is all 200x except for the 185s top end ( piston, jug and head ) 200x cam and rocker cover.... this has been a fun project and I will post pics of the build...

    Basicaly any engine from the 200 line will fit except the 200es. But while the engines from a 200e and m will fit you will havs to mod your frame to acomedate the electric start

    You're doing a REBUILD. Not a restoration...make sure you use the right terminology. There are members here who actually do restorations. They are meticulous and expensive. You can piss a lot of people off calling a rebuild a restoration.

    Nice rebuild man. The white frame stands out nice when it's all back together
