I started taking it apart a bit today to see exactly what it needs. The endcap on the pullrope wasn't on properly and it's been sitting and it's barely covered, so it's pretty rusty in there. So does that mean engine rust? The engine is free and pulls easily so I would think not. Other than that that I found out that it had a unifilter and some type of aftermarket pipe, though I don't think it was made for that bike or the tires weren't one, because they rub that big mother and it looks like he's hammered on it a bit to make it work. Other than that it has a big bore piston and running I dunno what compression. Any way to find that out? Someone in another post also mentioned putting 225dx forks on it. Would that be a good idea? And here is a parts list that I need: Brake and Clutch cables, both springs for the pull start assy a new seat, and a new unifilter. If any of you have those please email me. I also may look for tripple tees and forks from a DX anyone thinks that would be a good idea. Also, about that DG head you have trikeaholic, mine looks pretty similar. How would I know if I had one?
