    Kinda cool to see OEM tires on an '85 model, huh?

    Did you ever get the clutch unstuck, or get it to shift through the gears?

    My stepfather traded(back in '85) his YTM200 for a cherry '82 ATC250R that way. An older gentleman bought the R to check on his cattle and ride/check fence lines with and found it to be not exactly what he needed. said it was too fast and scared his cows....lol.

    Still had the "tits" on the original tires and only a few tanks of fuel through it.

    Finding stuff from the older generation is the way to go.

    Yeah...It shifts fine... The clutch is a little "grabby". I have ridden it some on our last dune trip. The tires are OEM and still have decent tread but they have some dry rot cracks and are hard as a rock...I'm pretty sure they hold air but I'm not sure they'd look any different if they had no air in them..lol

    Still have a long ways to go on the plastics and a tank cover is looking real good about now...but I think it does look better than when I hauled it home.

    Thanks for the compliments guys!

    I always think those, "I bought this to go hunting, do lawn work, etc." stories are so fun. It's so funny to hear about "it's too fast, it's no good to me". lol
    And that's the rest of the story. ~ Paul Harvey

    paddles and plastic....

    Little update- I picked up some 86 rear wheels to mount some paddles on. I also did the white plastic buy and just ordered a black tank from Clarke.

    Oh yeah...forgot about the billet chain guard, new smaller rear sprocket, and airbox covers on the way too.

    Thanks Doug- LOL... I posted the paddles just for you. Not sure when I'll get around to the plastics part of this build....It's still got a long way to go before I'm gonna feel good about putting new plastics on it... And I have a long way to go in getting comfortable riding this monster before I want to risk my new plastics too... But now I have them so I don't have to worry about them being discontinued.

    Once I stopped and actually looked at the wheels and realized they are "reversed" they mounted up real easy. Aired up easy too.
