    We need to make you some frame caps for the back, Shep has the mold. I sold all my NOS ones for 99$ a set! And guys were glad to buy them! I use to give them away at races, at some point I had ordered a couple dozen, wish I had bought/saved more...

    Anyhow, hard to match the blue, can probably make up some black ones.

    I like all your colors, just enough! Some guys go crazy and powder everything, probably just to keep things rust free though...

    What's next?? What do you have left??

    Yea, good idea, there’s a bit of wood wedged in one - have to drill that out and coat the inside with a brush.

    Left to do, still quite a bit:

    Ordered:

    Rear wheels and tyres
    Plastics

    Still to order:

    Rear brake slave - bought two Chinese ones, neither fits up.
    Front brake master
    End caps from Shep
    Decal kit
    Fuel petcock
    Exhaust - might have one made locally - $200 to ship here…

    Pending fitment:

    Carb and uni-filter
    Rear axle jam nut

    Work:

    Tank is still not stripped, it was painted with some kind of house paint, nothing I covered it with touched it (MEK, MEC) and it’s a bear to get off even with my sand blaster. I look at it sideways daily. Soon it’s time with the big wire wheel will come.

    Seat cover is on its way, base is here, just need the foam made once I have everything.

    Kickstarter - had to be re-built up in the bore, bushed and more material spun onto the pedal then milled to get a better fit. Waiting on a spring and bearing. Splines are good luckily.

    Remake the swingarm bolt, it’s not quite right.

    I have NOS 3wheeler masters just like what came on the 250R/350X and 2nd gen 200X, they have the oval head JIS screws.

    I do have regular newer style complete masters as well, they use a SHCS or hex bolt but all are OEM NOS Nissan masters from Honda years ago, not 18$ China masters.

    I sold allot of them on Ebay but can do better privately.

    There are a few OEM rear masters that fit as well, I'd have to look at my notes.

    But some don't even have a reservoir which I love because I'm always trying to route a big fat exhaust thru that subframe and it's a tight fit...

    PS - Put a dab of silicone on the frame plugs, it's not Sheps issue, right from the factory they were too loose and his molds are based off of OEM parts.

    Nice looking restoration! Just so you all know I'm working on reproduction 86 200x kick starters. Almost have them done.

    Are you making them out of aluminum?? That was the only way I could go about it...

    I'm making them from 17-4 stainless. They will never corrode. They are sweet....i'm just fine tuning the return "click".

    How did you "broach" your splines?? I made a cutter from an old shaft but I'd need a longer shaft to slowly increase in size to cut them in steel, works in aluminum though...

    I had to make a tool to broach the splines, especially since I am cutting steel.

    Kicker I managed to get my neighbour to sort for me. Built it up and milled it back. So close to the first start now.

    Tank will be done this week and then it’s time to see it start.
