Best thing you can do for it first is replace those trail pro tires.

The race bike thing was on the pic when he sent it to me but I'm planning on gettn some kenda klaw Mxr maby 20/10/8 when I get the money then I'm gonna get a dg exhaust Xr 200 carb and jetting

Good looking trike, get it running good and It'll be a blast. If the plastics are only broken on the fender area I've seen someone cut them down an make low profile fenders. It looks pretty good and will get you by until you can get new plastics.

That's what I was gonna do but the left side is almost non existant

I had to do some gluing to fix a few cracks. Otherwise you can always do the hole drilling and zip tie stitching method.

Look up "plastic welding with a soldering iron" on YouTube and you should find examples of melting the plastic on each side of the crack and stirring it together. Did that on a 400ex and it was as strong as new. Check out several vids, some people try mixing in more plastic and that's not always necessary.

On the left side there is almost no plastic left and the right side is a lil better but I'll end up cutting it off

[mud runner]

Well it looks like I might be getting another one I think it's a big red 250. He says it needs a gas tank and the wireing is messed up he is wanting 75 for it but I'm trying to get him down to 50

[mud runner]

Here it is http://i1165.photobucket.com/albums/q587/daniel_goodwin1/3EE3189E-1D11-41E3-8809-BA4E565E9F32_zpstxzgefea.jpg (http://s1165.photobucket.com/user/daniel_goodwin1/media/3EE3189E-1D11-41E3-8809-BA4E565E9F32_zpstxzgefea.jpg.html)

[jb2wheels]

That's a better starting point for $50 or $75.

[gottybear]

Yeah It's not bad looking. 250 is a great deal. I think my brother bought his 85' for like 750...

[mud runner]

Is there any thing I need to check for or do when I get them

[jb2wheels]

Does that 200X have a Goki starter on it? Kinda sweetens the deal.

[f76]

My 200x I posted has the goki on it, works great too. If only I would break down and buy a battery...

[quicksilver]

That is a 200 series big red, not a 250. Excellent price at 50 or 75!

[Jmoozy27]

Buy the 200es now

[mud runner]

I went and got it this morning and bought a plug put some gas in it and after about 25 kicks it fired up here's a video http://s1165.photobucket.com/user/daniel_goodwin1/media/C13BC423-D366-4184-8E86-68C4360DE2E2_zpsisit1qvm.mp4.html

[mud runner]

Good news you got lucky finding that before it got sucked in somewhere

[mud runner]

Ya I'd be kinda mad if I had to split the cases to find it

[its_serg]

bought mine for 450 there pretty easy to work on and a heck of a time to ride.

[mud runner]

Well I got it put back toghter tonight and it ran pretty good
