1998 ktm 200 xc? questions

[idsmokeu2]

This is my first ktm and for being so old im really impressed. I run gncc stuff and hair scrambles on my honda 450 and bought this cause it was cheap and to help a friend out. Im trying to buy a few parts for it and want to know if everythinis the same.from the mxc or exc in that year I think that's the only two made in that year for the 200. I believe its just motor or.tranny differences no body differences besides shock internals.correct.

I also wanted to try to confirm which model it is. Is there an easy was to tell besides calling up ktm dealer with the vin. #. As I might need to replace the reed or some card engine parts then sell it. Just like to know between the two. Im leaning towards it probably being a mxc but I can't say for sure. Hopingthere is something external that will give it away

Thanks for your help.. I can post pics later if needed I don't have.any good ones on me

Check out this website and you might see
which photo is closer to your bike. I would say
based on my experience, the only difference should
be transmission.

Engine, frame etc. should be identical.
