      @@AppalachianMountainRiders Yes sir! Ive got one half of a front fender and the center front body piece. The rest are lost to time. People must have been hard on their atv's in 87 plastic wise. Got mine running like a top, just cleaning and repainting things now. Amazing how well these Honda engines survive the times and still run so well. I guess the Chinese were on to something cloning them. I used a Chinese aftermarket carb on mine, had to modify it to mount but it runs great.

    I inherited a 1986 Fourtrax 200SX from my Mother's estate. My Dad had drained the gas from the tank and carburetor. It was last run in 2000. I put a new battery in it, filled it with new gas, and it started right up! It idles a little rough, and seems a bit rich, so I will be rebuilding the carburetor this spring, but other than new tires, it rides and drives great!
    What a fun, nimble little machine!

    I have a Honda 200sx and it was just siting and fixed it up only had to replace the seat and a hand break on it, recently replaced the chain tension rod and if there was one thing I would change about it would have to be the chain driven axle, its a constant pain to adjust and tighten the chain.

    Lots of comments about how great and long lasting this little 4-wheeler was - and I’ll second that. Had one since Christmas 1987.

Still a Honda or ???
