    Quick question.....

    Hey guys,
    I am about to go for a ride on my trike in the bush with some mates.Now my trike is running a bit rich,and is idling a bit low.

    The trike is a 83 200es.Could someone tell me where the idle speed and air/fuel mix screw is???


    Cheers.

    The idle screw is the horizontal one on the right hand side. I would not touch the air/fuel screw unless it's been played with already.. the air/fuel one is the vertical one between the carb and cylinder that's .. under .. the carb.

    On most of the Honda 200's that run rich I have found that it is wear in the needle seat of the carb(on the slide). Try raising the clip on needle one notch. This will lower the needle into the seat. This should help but it should be replaced with a new needle and seat.
