ok if you are tring to get off your fly wheel on your 200x by usein the front axle a lil tip is first try to get it off and then if it wont come off spray lube in the hole then threwad back in the bolt and re-tighten that bolt with an impact wrench till the bolt snaps off. then use the front axle again and it snaps off.

ok this is a joke but it happend to me so now i got to get a snapped off bolt out of my crank ill post a pic if someone wants to IM me so they can resize it.

yikes...to get that bolt out of the crank drill the center out and use an easy out to get it out...its a spiraled shaft thingy you get em in diffrent sizes prolly at canadian tire or something..but you thred and hammer the easy out in and then just twist it out with a wrench :)

Canadian tire! They've got good stuff there, except for the absolute blank stare you get when you ask for a 3/4" diameter automotive heater hose. Then they tell me I've got to special order the hose from Chevy, then I go to peavey mart across the street and theres a tub of assorted lengths of the hose I want!

Ha, anyone from canada calls it crappy tire! I called them up asking for plugs too for my big red, the guy (who couldnt have been over 23) was like: UHHHHH, we dont have ANYTHING in this store for those 3-wheelers, he didnt even look through the book! So I go to the store (motorcycle parts and acessories ile) theyve got accessories (tarps etc) that say good for all 3 and 4 wheelers! I dont even bother with them anymore, I'll just go to blackfoot, they have stuff tailor made for trikes on their main shelves (with quad stuff) right up front, fully competent people who dont fall over when you say ATC 200E. I remember going to that store when I was 4 years old, they still had trikes on the main floor. Apparently one day that my buddy was at their track, and the owner had a completely tricked out tecate there, maybe thats why the staff aren't ignorant to trike folk.
