the easy question is the drive... on a Honda gx the normal method is to fit a centrifugal clutch and use the sprocket that comes attached to the drum.

the harder Q is whether the chassis has enough clearance to run an inboard drive.

Some do... some can be altered with a bit of welding and some are too tight around the seat and tubes.

Photos or chassis make might help but getting hands on is the best method of deciding. Maybe ask your local track mech' to give it a looksee?

If you want some basic Gx tech maybe have a look at the free ebook online? ( written for the Gx 160 but much the same as the Gx200)
