I dont know why i get more projects...

[crazycart]

Yes of the performance ones(Honda) there are 200x which is a 4 cycle, 250r 2 cycle, and the 350x 4 cycle.Other companies also made racing machines(Yamaha, kawasaki, Tiger, Husky, Cagiva) This is the 1st generation air cooled 250r(1981-1982) Then there were updated ones with better suspension and a bit more power in 83-84. In 85 and up they switched to liquid cooled which make around 40 hp stock. All the 2 cycles have reeds.Quick machines none the less

BUT the 200s motor has more power. i will try and find some evidence, but that is what i have seen one some 3 wheeler forums
HEHE i have a 200s i am takin apart tonight, needs some timing help, man it sucks getting blots out that have been in there for 25 years, the aluminum is wraped around then, BREAKER BAR BABY

Hmmm, I'll have to go back to that one junkyard I mentioned earlier and see what's in that ATC!

 

[crazycart]

200s does not have more power than any of the trikes mentioned above, the 200x has more aggresive porting therefore making more power.

Well i just won an auction on ebay for an Answer Tuned exhaust for it, Worth ATLEAST 150 bucks. I got it for $10.50 ,to say the least, IM HAPPY. Im also gunna be getting some Carbon Fiber Reeds for it. Should bump up the HP a little

 

[2or3wheels]

**** u cant get stock exhaust for that cheap, was shipping like 100 bucks?

 

[crazycart]

It was $30, but it was still cheaper than the reeds i got ($55)

 

[crazycart]

Put the reeds in today. Got lots of low end back, no hesitation, pulls up the front end right off idle.

Why cant I find stuff like this?

 

[crazycart]

Idk, look harder?

These 1981/82's are going for dirt cheap everywhere.

 

[crazycart]

I really didnt notice a change in the low end with it but it pulls alot harder high rpm..and it makes your ears bleed...

Nice speedholeing in the front fender.

 

[crazycart]

Yes i know, i did not do that, but it was an old racer trick back in the day..

 

[Jerryburger]

VERY NICE FIND. A friend at our KartFests has similar trike, and holy cow, its fun! We've tried to GPS it's top speed, and none of us have made it past 60, because we're trying to hold the GPS and ride at the same time. Okay for gokarts, but this thing is such a handful, it's just too hard to do both. The next time we try it (we will!), we're gonna duct-tape the GPS to the tank. Here's a picture of it.

 

[crazycart]

That looks like a 85/86 250r,hard to tell from the pic though. They were liquid cooled and very fast.Quite a bit faster than my first generation R.I think they make around 38 hp but im not positive on that..

 

[crazycart]

Put on some hand guards.

 

[Jerryburger]

It was an air-cooled 250, but that's all I know about it, except that it was stupid fun to drift around wide corners in fifth. Yours looks cool!

 

[crazycart]

If its air cooled in a chassis in the picture, its a 1983-1984. These were an upgrade from the 81-82 with a new frame, suspension, but same engine, just higher compression ratio.
