Here is an old video of my 83 200 and I do have a spare mint front fender, but it very happy living in a plastic bag inside a box. Keep searching ebay, NOS fender do come up every few months for about $100.

Good god what a road, blind corners, cliffs, bumpy as heII, railing along the side on the rockwall side..WTH is with that..looked like one of those episodes of Deadliest Roads.

And you flying up that switch back, front end all popping up in the air and shlt with cliffs on the side...made my azz tighten just watching!

You are one crazy Canuxican!!!:lol:

I have an 84 YTM 200EL....love it. Starts in one pull no matter what temperature, runs very smooth, very easy and fun to ride. I just put stock exhaust (ebay - cheap, too!) back on it; wow it is nice an quiet now. Not the prettiest thing but it sure is a good machine overall.

This pic is before I put the stock exhaust on.

That inside "rail' is actually a water pipe. The surface is a mix of packed sharp rocks and bust up concrete from the last hurricane. Someone asked me why I wasn't sliding into the corners:wondering LOL! Look close and you’ll see that there are ruts and holes in the concrete 8" deep in spots!

PS. After 33 years of riding with relatively minimal injuries I prefer the term “astute calculated risk taker” over “crazy”:naughty:
