Hello, I am a proud new owner of a Honda 200 3 wheeler. This is the first machine I have ever had. Quick question: The sticker is off the frame, How do I tell what year it is, along with other pertinent information? Also, I believe it runs really rich. What adjustment do I do for that? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

what is the 10th vin didget?

 

Are there any stickers on the plastic. Maybe post a picture of it and then we can tell.

I know that to upshift on a 1984 and older 200 you have to push down on the shifte.

1985 and newer you pull up on the shifter to upshift.

84's and 85's were "sportier" than the older balloon tired 83 and earlier.


Not sure about jetting. Is it rich at idle, part throttle, full throttle?

 

There are no stickers on it that I have seen. Where would the VIN be located? As far as it running rich, it seems to be when it is idleing. Smokes some, and will foul the plug.

 

Oh yeah, and to upshift, you push the lever down.
Thanks

 

vin is on the steering neck...behind the headlight

 

OK- I finally got the VIN it is:

JHSTB050XDC203632

Can you tell me what year and model this is?

Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

 

it's a 1983......but I dont have the Honda code for the model....

 

That's funny.

My friends 83 200 just started smoking quite a bit. It does it all the time though. I'm thinkin top end rebuild. Any other ideas?

last year of the big tired, big framed 200's. Not as fast as 84-86, but built to last. And will float in water.

 

it could be a 200x or maybe a 200e what color are the fenders and gas tank.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
