I just got back into # wheelers kind of by accident, but it still happened. I bought a 1984 200S from a guy for $200 bucks. It had good compression, spark and good rear tires. But it didnt run. Got it home and tore into it. The springs on the fly weights gave up the ghost and ruined everything inside the cdi box. I replaced all of the guts in there and a buddy pulled me around the yard with the quad until it fired up.
I later bought 2 bikes from him for $100. A 1985 200S that runs, but needs a head gasket. Along with a 1984 parts bike that consists of a motor (minus the piston, head, and valve cover), frame with axle, forks and front wheel, a bucket full of small parts and bolts. The parts bike it just going to be that used for parts. It would cost well over $1000 to put the parts bike back together.
