1987 trx200sx wheel spacers and suspension

Hello everyone.

I just recently purchased an 87 trx200sx. It runs like a dream and is my first Honda. It’s also my first 4-stroke atv.

I would like to widen the front wheels with spacers unless it is a terrible idea on this quad.

I know wheel spacers are not recommended, but my wife and 16 year old daughter will be the main riders.

The suspension is abysmal and the the front tires are more narrow than the rear. There aren’t any aftermarket parts that I can find.

I put newer rebuilt shocks on the front and it really didn’t help. The quad feels like it is going to flip over on every turn.

So, would you put wheel spacers on the front, or would this kill my ability to turn and destroy my ball joints?

Any front shock advice is also greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I just bought a 200 honda 250ex. U can start it wit pull cord but none of tha lights work at all. When I put a new battery in it I doesn’t do anything, headlights, taillights, and indicator light(reverse-neutral) won’t work and doesn’t start. Not ever a click from solenoid. What could cause this.
