Okay i did a compression test, it held @175-180 psi which is what the manual recommends. This means my valves arent cracked? And anyone wondering, im in the process of getting my pay pal set up just need to do the stupid "verification". Pretty soon I'll be able to buy and sell parts

Update: got the brake working. All of them including the parking brake. Im gunna have a member here rebuild my old brakes and rear master cylinder( it needs rebuild won't even build pressure.) My shock needs to be rebuilt i would have onformula1 do it but ive never had to take a shock out so ill get around to having the local shop do it. My head pipe was cracked and i found out my uncle on my biological father side is a machinist supervisor. I didnt know that hence i dont socialise with my biological father side of family very much. Any ways hes going to patch it up for free. Ita probably not going to be pretty but oh well ill probably put a dg on it till i can find some one to fab up a coffman replica header. When i get the money im going to put a tachometer on the 200x. Get 2 or 3 inch wheel spacers. Modern tread n rims. I was thinking of holeshots (there's a knock off brand that makes them) and ITP wheels. I just pretty much need to take pieces at a time and get them powder coated to factory color. Also need to start polishing. Whats your guys' methods on polishing? My triple trees are so bad they look galvanized

Everyone has different methods, but ill tell you how i did mine. I used sandpaper. I put some 220 on my electric sander and got all the imperfections out first. Be careful not to gouge the metal. The rest i did by hand after the 220 i went 320, then 600 (i think) then 800, up to 1500 grit. Wet sanding. Plenty of water. I just dipped the sandpaper in a bucket of water. That got them looking pretty good. I used a dremel with the little sanding drums for the tight spots. I literally made my own. I used a worn out drum and then cut out small strips and glued the necessary grit paper around it. Worked pretty good. Then for polishing i bought a cheap 20 dollar polishing kit that attached to my drill and followed the instructions on which compound did what. I believe it was tripoli first, then white rouge for final polishing. Made the m look like chrome. Took me about an hour for each top and bottom clamp. I used a few power tools, but as far as sanding, the same result can be had by hand if you dont have a power sander for the first step. Just takes a little more elbow grease. Heres my finished product
And i also got some ITP wheels. Have yet to mount them, but they look very good IMO. I paid $41 each. Theyre 8x8 3+5 offset
Ps: your trike started out very original, dont get rid of the original parts!!! Store them away!

Original is out the window. As expected. Put those plastics away before you regret it.

Eh, its not totally out the window. I have my autox plastic that ill probably use for tearing up the field on the 200x. I got a place in my barn to store all my atc/ytm plastics tires and spare parts. So does this thing have an oil filter like a trx450r? Im also probably gunna put off polishing for a while on the trike till i get good at it.Original is out the window. As expected. Put those plastics away before you regret it.

Your 200x has a oil filter, not a filter you would think of. It is a metal screen held in by a spring on the other side of your oil drain plug. Be Careful, don't over tighten the plug while putting it back together and also make sure you have the plug started correctly while screwing it back in. It is easy to strip the threads because you are trying to smash the spring back down while putting the cap back on.

Yeah-thats the screen. The "filter" is under the centrifical clutch cover. Its a trap of sorts that works on centrifical force. Often its never cleaned out & collect about 1/8" amount of compacted sediments that need to be scraped out. Though its almost not obvious when you see it for the first time.

I thought a centrifugal clutch job was to led an engine idle in gear and a manual didn't have one

Oops-disregard!!! Its an X -no centrifical. Sorry for the misinfo-my bad. I just realized its not an S.
(The oil rotor/filter is there in the same place the centrifical would be tho....)
