    225 motor in 200 frame?

    i am just wondering if a 225 motor will swap with my 200 tri moto engine? I am starting to rebuild my 1985 tri moto 200 and wondering if i should rebuild the 200 or just find a 225 engine.
    also if you have any favorite sites to buy parts from for 3 wheelers!?
    thanks

    rebuild the 200 with a wiseco piston and a webcams cam shaft. the 200 will take any 225 and you won't have to chop up the frame.

    so the 225 is less power then the 200? I thought the 225 would just slid in the 200 frame, is that not the case? where do you buy your parts for your 200?

    The 225 motor is shaft drive most 200 are chain well unless you have a shaft 200 then its a good possibility a 225 motor will work

    The 225 is more powerful than a 200, but I think what wikid mean is that if you rebuilt your engine and put some performance parts it will be easier than buy a new engine and install it in the frame. But like I pointed in your other post, it seems that the 225 will bolt in the 200e frame.
