can i put a twist throttle on a 200x and still use the stock throttle cable a local bike shop sells pro motion twist throttle almost like a universal. also can i start my 1984 200x with out a head pipe or do i need one inorder to get it to fire up

Yes you can put a twist on just about everything you own but you might have to modify your cable to make it work. Problem with the twist is you need a longer cable to go around the twist part, so a new cable might need to be on your next purchase.

You can start it up without a header, but its going to run like crap and it will be very loud..... And im not to sure but i dont think it is too good for it either..

hard on the valves.. burns them up. get a pipe.. you'll need one no matter what if you ever want to ride it..

i find thumb throttles to be more comfortable than twist, if the thumb throttle doesnt push hard that is.

i have a motion pro twist throttle on my 84 200x..i havnt riddne it yet cause the stator is bad but ill let you know when i get that fixed if its good..it felt like the thumb was a little easier and returned better..the twister is really easy but it doesnt return as well..i may need some wd-40..lol or a new spring..but it is fairly new..it looks better than seein a thumb throttle hangin down tho i think

My latest purchase has a twist throtle on it..... it's on a 82R. Let me know if you want it.. it's coming off for a regular OEM thumb throttle!

a twist throttle will not work with the stock throttle cable. get a universal twist throttle that comes with a cable. i put a twist throttle from a xr200 on my 85 200x. worked good.
