    i have a question, Does your 200x have just the frame? Or is a complete bike? You forget that the SX is shaft drive so you'd have to buy a shaft rear end. you realy wouldnt gain anything for so much fabrication. I do not believe they will lock up correctly. Sorry, Just save your money and put it towards your 200x.

    It would take a lot of work. The 250sx is shaft drive with the shaft going through the swinger so you would have to use the sx engine, swinger, rear end and lots of homemade parts just to get a trike that would not be any better then a good 200x or 250sx.

    If you do find a 250x motor don't forget they are physicaly the same size as a 350x motor. I don't know if a 350x motor would fit in a 200x frame but that might be a better refernce when asking.
