Just a rant.. cause my fingers hurt, my back hurt, I banged my head like 5 times with the handlebar (yes I'm that smart), etc..

I have worked on motorcycles and small motors like lawnmowers, etc.. But I have never found a machine that is harder to work than my new (to me) 200M... Holy smokes.. its a torture to get the carb out and double torture to get it back in.
Maybe there is a secret.. I know I have much to learn but I already feel sorry for the mechanics that had to work on these things every single day..

I had to remove both fenders, gas tank, seat and airbox.. then to put back the carb was a test of my patience.. Of course nobody had told me how or I didn't know what to expect..


Anyway, its all done.. I needed to vent..

Take it out with the intake manifold attached and it’s not that hard to remove .

I'll bet that it was easier to do when the rubber wasn't 30+ years old and still flexible too.
