    oooooh, it'd sure be nice to hear it run and make sure it has all it's gears before you go too far.

    I usually get them running minimally, lawn mower gas tank..that kinda thing.
    run it thru the gears and THEN think about how much time and $ to throw at it all.

    The classified section is prob best to find parts
    or what's been happening to me lately, another parts trike will come along for 50 bucks
    and save the day.

    You SHOULD be able to roll it in gear with the clutch lever squeezed.

    you do know there are free manuals in the 'world class help' section, right?

    Yeah, it took me a while to figure that out too.

    The search key has been working great lately.
    An easy way to get tons of posts about specific topics all in one blast
    as opposed to waiting for individual answers.

    From the looks of the weather channel, the whole east coast is looking for
    batteries, flashlights and an escape route.

    Yupp, just be careful.
    One of these days you'll look out where your trike is and see
    that they multiply.

    On the 200x, does the kick starter go all the way to the ground? I cant remember... On mine, it stops at the pegs..

    Well today, my boss stopped by the shop while I was working on the 3 wheeler. He asked if it ran.."I dunno".. So after he bitched me out.. I put the motor back on hooked up some wires, Put the carb back together.. Hooked up the gas line, sprayed some either in the carb.. 2 kicks later she was running... BUT.... The dam carb it pouring gas from the bowl.. So tomorrow I have to try and get the float to stop sticking...Im going to order a new carb here in a few because this on has a bunch of pits in the bowl and elsewhere..But tomorrow my neighbor os going with me to work on it some more.. I want to give it a test ride by tomorrow afternoon...Then Ill start getting the parts that need replaced..

    Got a 30mm carb from a xr200r... needs some adjusting as I cant get a steady idle.. It wants to idle alittle high after I give it some gas, then come down...No air leaks around the carb or instake...
