Hi there,
can anyone advise me?I just bought a CB200(1973) with a top end that has a seized cam,is this worth repairing? as I have a CD185(1978) as a donor bike,was the 200 a 6volt? and the 185 12 volt?
Which in your opinions is the better motor?
Is it possible to kick start the 185 without a battery?it should start?right or is it not possible?
Thanx

The CB200 was 12 Volt as it had an electric starter.

I just noticed that the CD185 is a 6 volt,also the CD185 has a single carb,where as the CB200 has twin carbs...I guess one carb could be better for less maintenance?
Any comments please?

Yes...slightly.
