Looks great! I like the way the rear brake reservoir is mounted. I need to change the reservoir mount location on the 350X as the exhaust heat has deformed it a bit.
Put your butt on the inside fender or end up on the ground!

Been rebuilding motor and odds and ends. Just pick up me new 4140 swing-arm collar from HRE last night. Needed a few more motor parts. I used a Pro-x piston kit and the head gasket was less then perfect so NOS OEM one was ordered. Pulser coil was rebuild with all new OEM parts. It was not much at all. Way cheaper then buying 40 year old worn out parts off ebay for too much money. I bought a few sets of NOS stuff just because.
All hardware is stainless now, brass washer used at the coil also. Seems 1 or two things just take for every to get here to proceed to the next step. I've built this motor basically out of a two junkers and parts puke'd in a box. The constant lets go see what what we have is a PITA.

Done with motor, next intake and let's put it in the frame. Had another home project last 5months taking up a good bit of time. Still in no rush.

Motors in, made aluminum motor spacers. Moving on. Rear sprocket and sprocket guard should be done this week. Installed a crank case breather filter last night. Almost done but still need to build a rear muffler to match my cobra header.

Y'all doing these top notch 200X builds put a lot of the overpriced 200Xs to shame that aren't nearly the same condition.
With yours being upgraded and modernized, it's got more value than a stocker to some people. It's crazy how that works sometimes, for vintage vehicles. It would seem they hold more value by being stock, especially original, but that's not always the case with tasteful modification.
