I'd sell that 185 engine (or put it back in the bike and sell it whole) and look for a 200x engine.

Yes, I would tend to go to the 200x engine in the 200x frame myself. I was never really a big fan of the 86-87 200x though. I guess that is easy for me to say since I have a suspension 185s though. I just really want to see FoxRider001 get this project done as quickly and easily as he can and enjoy riding with suspension. I do have my fingers crossed for you, just don't make it any harder on yourself than you need to, you know?

Keep your eyes on this, a 2 second search on Egay netted this. I also see them pop up on Craigslist by me fairly often. I'd keep it with the stock 200x than molest it with a 185 motor.

Sell the 185s as a running whole bike and use that money to get the 200x up and running with the correct engine.
If it aint old I dont want it!

You should delete that post and repost it on the classifieds here. You'll probably get more interest there.Originally Posted by FoxRider001

what all is wrong with it and how much you want

well the chain came off, so the case is cracked, needs new cam, rockers, crank re-build, top end-rebuild, lots of stripped bolt holes, broken off bolt heads, needs new piston, and some more. Not sure how much i would want.
