    I picked up a trx300 handlebar switch oem Honda that will work nicely.

    well how did it turn out? im about to put a 200e in mine also. might just leave the starter off, did your frame snap like a twig?
    1985 big red 250es working good. 1983 200e waiting for new crank and rod. 200x project looking needing everything.

    I have been riding it for almost 4 years now and no problems. My welds were not pretty but they are strong. Plus I think the steel I added more than made up for what I removed. I will post some current photos if anyone is interested. I moved the battery to a different location and had my original rear shock rebuilt.
    The lifan is available if anyone is interested, I should post it in classifieds I suppose.
