Sorry for the long title, but didn't want to get mixed in with the "missing " decompression cable threads.
I've done some searching and can't find the answer I'm looking for.
I just bought my first three wheeler, was told it's a 1984 Honda 185. But there is no information plate on the forks. Rode it a few times and of course my recoil breaks on me. Watch some videos on how to repair it, and it's pretty simple. Besides the fact that I don't even have the mounts for the decompression cable.
Just to be clear, what I mean is, the motor isn't even drilled and tapped for the decompression cable. The decompression lever is there, but it doesn't look like the standard levers that take the cable/mount. Is it just meant to be lifted manually? The recoil cover has the hole for the cable, but no cable, no mounts for the cable, and none of the decompression parts, (spring, spool, etc) in the recoil.
I basically need to know why it doesn't have the mounts for the decompression cable, so I can figure out the right way to rebuild the recoil. I'm new, so I don't think I can post pictures yet.
