Sold some car parts, now I just need to make arrangements to pick these 2 up.
It's going to take a 400 mile round trip to get these.

I picked them up, got 3 motors, 1 still in a trike the other 2 in pieces. Plastic is great on both. New front tires on both, the rears are ok on 1, junk on the other. One has twist throttle. Both gas tanks are clean & shiny inside. I think the one with the motor can be fixed pretty easy, motor turns over, I think the timing chain stretched and jumped a tooth. There are a few small things wrong, frozen cables, 1 broken lever, but all the important parts are still there and in decent shape.
After I get them unloaded, I'll post some pictures.

Rode one of the trikes with my 200s motor in it yesterday.
My motor has a 200x piston and the head was ported, so it has some power. The exhaust is aftermarket, but no markings, the muffler is stainless. The trike came with a K&N filter, I ordered an Outerwares cover for it. I think it'll need a bigger main jet, but I'll wait for the Outerwares cover before final tuning.
No wonder people like 200x's, it's awesome having suspension.
We'll start on fixing the stock motor in the other one, I think reworking the head and a new piston will do the trick. We decided to keep that one with the manual clutch, since it's complete, just needs a little work.
The motor was pretty toasted that they had pulled. It had a high compression piston,WEB cam and a big carb, but they didn't run high enough octane gas and burned the piston.

I'll post a picture of the piston later. I got a spare motor, but this motor and the spare are in pieces, I don't plan on using them accept for parts.
The 2nd 200x is basically complete, just missing the skid pans. I plan on using the cylinder & head from the parts motor to repair and swap to get it running. The jug is 65mm bore, so it'll clean up with a 1mm bore.

boring 1mm? that should not be necessary bore to 65.5 and use a weisco 10.25:1 if you ever plan on getting a cam .. if not go to a stocker
