"shed" find ytm 200

[toki]

i found this bad boy in my father in laws shed 5ish years ago and finally talked him into letting it go. 15 years ago it was in several small wrecks (riders not respecting the machine and an underage rider). bars were bent, had zero brakes, bent forks, broken headlight mount, no tail light, tires were returning to earth. It was in the shed forever as a plus tho. I straightened the bars (will replace later), straightened the forks (pita), adjusted the brakes, changed the oil, filter, and airfilter, found some tires, cleaned the carb (partial rebuild with a timberwolf kit) and away i went. The thing purrs like a kitten. i thought that after sitting for so long it would be a POS but it runs 10 times better then my 200x.

here are some pics. and im polishing the plastic it was gnarly. will also re do the front fender with some clear line if i cant find one for cheeeap.
