first off if your using a fuel mix that's your prob. it's a four stroke not two.
whats the black soot in the exh. look like. oily or dry. rub it between two fingers.

If you are burning oil, then either the rings or the valve guides are shot.

Your trike needs a new top end.

Sorry that there is not a simple or cheaper answer, but that is reality

Take the carb off and clean it...I have a gallon can of carb cleaner I got at checker that has a basket with a handle in it. Dismantle the carb and jets and soak it over night, then blow out the jets. Clean the airfilter while your at it. Install new plug. Install the carb, adjust af screw. Ride, read plug then adjust needle. If your pulling it too far out of the hole or going to far in, rejet accordingly.

Yes your 200x needs top end work, but I think it will still run fine for a while as is.
