    200es suspension

    Yes, i would assume it would be possible. The 84 TRX200 had rear suspension. It has a shock mount on top of the differential and a special swingarm. If you could get the swingarm and rear off of an 84 TRX200 you could probably make it work but you would have to find a way to attach the swingarm and make an upper shock mount.

    That would be awsome... I'll keep my eyes peeled for a 84 TRX200 parts bike. I knew they had the same rearend and axle but I forgot that they had suspension.
