OK guys I need some help with my 86 Honda 200SX.This summer I'm going to really put some money in it.I mostly ride on hard and soft terrain in the woods on trails 4-5ft. wide so I really need to gain some handling.I mostly ride in speeds of 25-35 mph.The shocks are really stiff so I'm going to get Works to build me some shocks.I also think I will add these:XCT Holeshots f&r, Uni Air Filter, Cobra pipe, Sidewinder sprockets, Maier plastic, and Maier handguards.Maybe some more items.The reason I picked this machine to make a trailbike out of is because I'm 13 years old and I've been riding since I was 5 and reading dirtwheels and atv action since I could read.I realy know a lot about this machine and the parts for it.Now my main question is where can I get someone to make me a 2-3inch swingarm extension and possibly A arm extensions.Would this suit my kind of riding?Arms?Swingarm?The front end is hard enough to keep down on hills with it stock.

Was this Quad red, white & blue off the floor? If so, a 3 inch swing arm extension should do the trick and you'll love it at high speed--lose zig zag in the rear on tight trails.

My old 200 was built to race by a friend. I don't know much about what was done to it. I JUST SHOWED UP AND RACED IT. I was young. I'm still no modifier but I do know it was equiped with an ordered racing 2-stroke 200, 3 in. swing arm ex., wider axle, ex. A-arms , special shocks F&R, racing tires & rims.

I never rode a stock 200 and I expect not much more than the plastic was stock on this quad. I don't know any of the particulars as far as dimensions or anything for these mods. or if & where they are avalible now. But, I think you will like the results of extra width, length and wheel travel.

Back then I rode in a 200 class w/blasters and dominated. It's like a 250R set up for beginners. I hope this helps a little and you get the results you want!
