    There are a few 88 Big reds in the UK but im pretty sure that the 200x never made it to 88, it was only the utilities for us here when we could still import them.The 200x did make it to 87 though

    there is a '88 big red but I dont believe there are any others. The '88 red was made in late '87 so they never actually made them IN 1988.

    I am sure of myself don't worry No one said anything about one being inthe us, but hey you never know, you don't know whats out there. Like I said, just becuase they havent appeared doesnt mean they wont. It's liek saying there are no 30 point bucks..sure there are, they've been shot. So how do you know there's not an 88 200x, or even an 87 350x or 250r. Hell, hrc200x has an 87 ATC 250r engine, so I Guess that can prove you wrong in a sense, so **** off

    Well i'm sure there NO 88 BR in the States because i checked with honda when i bought my 88 BR decals.......i phoned Honda Europe in Belgium the central warehouse for the whole of the EU and they told me that the 88 BR was only sold in the EU and the Down Under and possiblely Japan......so unless someone did a personal import from the EU which i very much doubt because of the very high export tax rate from here or OZ...and bikes sold over here do not come with titles so that would make it impossible to ship to the US....plus Belgium said that only 500 were made.... i have been researching this for years now....and i do know!!!!!!
    back to the original question...no Honda never made a 88 200x if it turns out to be a 88 engine then it will be from a trx.........
