    how fast? how much power?

    ok guys as most of you guys know i cant ride because i pulled some muscles in my chest/ribs. so ive bin thinking. how much power does my trike have? how fast is it?

    here is what ive got. its a 1984 200s. it has bin bored 2mm, 200x cam, 200x head (if it matters), 28mm carb, 12:1 piston and rings, runs 93 octain fuel, 8 tooth front sprocket, 39 rear, and 25 inch rear tires. i raced a ttr125 and beat it. but that was before the cam and sprocket and tires.

    any tips on a better sprocket set up? i wold like to keep the 8 if i can. but the rear i think has to go. im new at the whole sprocket deal. any help would be great. i figured i would look around and think about what i wanna do with the trike since i can ride on it or work on it. so i may as well save some money and get some parts.

    i cant wait to ride again.
    down to parts because i no longer have a place to ride trikes.

    heres kinda a neat site to play with for figureing out sprokets. If your know a few things, you can figure out a theoretical top speed.

    If Im not mistaken the 200x engine put out 12hp ( might need someone to correct me on that) so with the mods you might be pushing 15-16hp?Put you have to consider wat you have and that is a 200S so its moderatly light to go with that

    holy frankintrike, looks awsome! love the flames also, will be cool to see if you finish it up, find some plastic to clear those tires (maybe a plastic "lift kit" is in order). That thing will be sweet. I have a 200s with some mods, not sure what they are as i didnt do them, but its way faster than stock
