Thank you for this! I actually just watched this video while on my way to look at a non-running 1984 ATC 200ES. This video gave me the confidence to buy it (cheap)! Currently tearing it down and going through everything. I am certain it will ride again! I've watched several other videos of yours as well and enjoyed them all. Keep up the great work!

Just bought an 84ES but the reverse box I was told is bad and taken apart but he gave me an entire bottom end, glad to have found your videos!

I pulled my uncle's 84 200es out of a back field where it sat outside for 15 years. Fixed it up and now it runs and drives

Thanks everyone for the comments, I try to answer every question and read every comment. Please take a moment to hit the subscribe button.

Man, what a great video! Just watched this and the top end rebuild for the 200es. You answered about 15 questions i had just wondering on where to start on my 84 big red thats been sitting quietly in our own barn for about 20 years. Trying to finish a 85 250sx now, then hopefully the big red... Soon i hope!

Awesome videos, glad to see another guy saving theses old girls, nothing more satisfying than bringing one back to life and going for a ride.

I put the project on hold for the past few months and now I am getting nothing when I press the e start button. It worked fine 3 months ago. Bike runs great when I jump the battery or pull start it. Electronics are definitely my weak area and I’m stumped. Headlight works, reverse and neutral lights do not (they used to work fine) could be related.

Hi Ashton, best option is to find a 200m front end, and swap the whole thing over. A 84 atc200 [ no letter] would also work. Both have a 9 inch wheel, and a more modern shocks. You can swap a 185s and 200s with shock suspension, the trade off is a 8 in front rim with a different bolt pattern. I have not tried it but I have been told a 200x front will also swap. That would get you a skinny front tire and disc brakes. Thanks for watching and subscribing .

Could be a few place. Get the machine clean then warm it up and watch for a leak. Start at the top like exhaust valve inspection cover it has an oring, the head could be loose or a blown head gasket or the exhaust donut gasket is broken and leaking unburned fuel mixed with oil residue. 1 of those should be your issue.

It's a 12volt accessory outlet. Honda sold a line of items that you could plug in to it and power up. Think of it as a cigarette liter in an old car.

I was running my 83 200e through the woods and it just died on me. It cranks over just fine but not firing now. I just had the carb gone through and ready to ride with a full tank of gas. Do you know what could be going wrong? Thanks

Back to the basic my friend. Do you have spark? If yes, then its fuel related. I'd change the plug, just to make sure, verify you have spark before you put it in. If you dont have spark check the grounds at the coil. I'd bet you have some rust in your tank. Drop the carb bowl an catch the fuel in it, pour it on a napkin and see if it has rust in it. If so, clean the carb again, and replace your fuel filter.

@@mrcbuilds Yep, it has spark and it fires now. It seems like it's not getting enough fuel. I cranked on it and gave it throttle just enough to get it home. Going to drop the carb bowl tomorrow and check that. Thanks

Where do I find the little springs? Please help
