Hello guys, my name is Paul and I have been riding three wheeler off and on since I was about 7 or 8. I live in San Antonio Texas. The last three wheeler I rode was a Honda 200ES but it finally broke. But about a year ago, I traded a bunch of my junk for a running 1984 Honda 200s. After fixing the pull starter and tires, I had a blast on it until I overheated it and burned up the stator coil. Also, the bearings were shot, timing chain was ticking a hair, tail light didn't work, etc. Ever since then, it sat in my shop broken until a couple of months ago when I decided to fix it.

I went a little crazy on how much I bought for it, but I know it will be worth it in the end. I ended up ordering:
Pull start rebuild kit
Armorcord pull starter cord (9000lb tensile strength)
EBC Clutch plates
High performance clutch springs
EBC front and rear brake shoes
Motion Pro brake cables
New brake lever for right side
Front and rear axle bearings from allballs and also the axle seals
brake drum gasket and seal
chain and sprocket set
shifter shaft oil seal
ignition stator
CDI box
coil, spark plug wire, and spark plug
another used ignition switch that was in good condition
front and rear brake cam seals and felts
all new brake springs for the rear (every single spring)
DG exhaust system
UNI air filter
Carburetor rebuild kit
Fuel petcock valve and filter
gas cap gasket
oil drain cap (I broke mine)
Full engine gasket set
Headlight and taillight bulbs
Fork oil seals
Tubes with offset metal stems for rear tires
new tailight housing
rear fender supports (one was missing)

Everything in the list is installed except I am waiting for the tubes and the armorcord to come in. It runs like a champ except for a little throttle response issue off of idle that I think I know what is wrong. Other than that, it is a blast to ride and will pull wheelies like a champ. One day though, I want to get me a 200X.

Also, I wanted to tell yall that this forum is awsome!
