    Brake line, chain and possable suspension adjustment. I think a +2 is the best all arround choice for practical riding. Never had a 200x though.

    are these arms adjustable at the axle instead of the frame i'm wondering cause of the opened end instead of the circled ones i've seen? also are they available for a 84 200x?

    those swing arms use an adjustable bearing carier compared to a fixed one on a stock 200x. It could be made to fit with some work but you would end up having to buy a different axle and bearing setup.

    an adjustable bearing carier ?? is this used to take slack out of chain? this is my 1st trike w/suspension so i'm learning as i go thank you. also i have an idea of using my 200e motor (after i have it rebuilt and beefed a bit) but with the subtranny the current location of chain tensioner will most likely be in the way.
