Do not use a universal CDI unless you have the exact wiring cross-over diagram, or have tech help from the manufacturer. You can short out the CDI and other ignition components like the stator.

SOURCE: how do u remove timing chain and re-time engine (1984 xr 250 r)

If you need to remove the cylinder head, here's how. To remove the cam chain, you've got to also remove the left crankcase cover and flywheel.

First, you need to turn the engine over until the piston is at top dead center (TDC) of the compression stroke. Begin by removing the two round covers from the left side of the crankcase cover. Also remove the four tappet hole covers from the cylinder head cover. Turn the engine (in the normal direction of rotation) and watch the intake valves open - and close, then see that the exhaust valves open, then close. Now align the 'T' on the flywheel with the notch in the inspection hole. With all of the valves closed, the engine is at TDC of the compression stroke. Do not begin removal of the cylinder head cover until this is done - to avoid damage to the cover.

With the cylinder head cover removed, you will find two bolts attaching the cam chain sprocket to the camshaft. Turn the engine until you can get a 10mm socet onto the heads of the bolts and remove them. The sprocket will come loose and slide down onto the camshaft, enabling you to remove it an the camshaft.

Upon reassembly, set the cam timing by first setting the engine at TDC. Then, align the two marks on the cam sprocket with the gasket surface on the cylinder head. With the engine at TDC and the marks lined up, the cam timing is properly set.

Before calling the job done, make sure to adjust the tappet clearances to .002" on the intake and .003" on the exhaust valves.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

On Asian versions of an 84 Honda XR200R, the CDI unit has six wires:

  • blue/yellow - pulse generator
  • black - to ignition coil
  • black/white - engine stop switch;
  • green - ground;
  • green/white - pulse generator
  • black/red - exciter/charging coil at stator.

The ignition coil has 2 wires:
  • green - ground;
  • black - to CDI

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

The wires have fallen out of the CDi and I cant remember which colour goes where. Any idea its on a BT49QT9 moped and the wires clip straight onto the pins

Hey Anne,
If the wires "fell out" of the box itself there may be no way to reinstall them. (wires "falling out" of a sealed box is unusual!!) ..Is the CDI a sealed box?,, If there is no way into the CDI box then you will probably have to purchase a new one. If you determine that its sealed and you will have to purchase an replacement,,.. then, by all means go ahead, contact an electrician, and try to fix it.. you will have nothing to lose...

Found this bike rotting and I'm fixing it up. Can anyone please help me identify the model? First I thought it was the XR250 but the engine block looks a little small for a 250cc. Electric start.

The Honda XR 200R had a 195 cc (11.9 cu in) engine that was shared with the Honda ATC 200x but with a different camshaft and carburetor. This engine ran 10:1 compression ratio and was over square. For the 1984-85 model years, the XR200 had a smaller version of the same 4 valve RFVC engine as the other XR's in the line up. The 200cc RFVC engine shared many parts with the 250cc RFVC engine. For the 1986 model year, Honda reverted to the 2 valve engine that had powered the XR200R before 1984 and variations of the 2 valve engine continued to power the XR200R until the model was dropped altogether.

1984 XR 200r. Do I have to split the cases to replace the shifter shaft?

I believe you may have to, unless its been designed to 'slide' out the side.
Most cases will hold the two ends of the shaft, so maybe Yesy to splitting.
Good luck with it. Love to hear how it came out.
Cheers n Happy Trails...

Colors not distinguishable

Is your monitor by any chance sitting next to unshielded speakers or anything else which could generate an electomagnetic field? You can get some terrific colour shifts with these items. If you do have anything like this put some distance between them and the monitor. Also the auto degauss coil circuitry could be faulty in the monitor. Take it to a repair shop and ask the tech to degauss the tube and see what difference it makes. If it fixes the problem get him to check the degauss system. Don't try this yourself. There's lots of voltage running around inside a TV. Fix don't Fry BMW
