I just got my 200x running and I found that first of all it shakes like crazy, second of all it shakes so bad that the choke flips itself up. I never used a torque wrench during the rebuild, maybe there are too many loose bolts?

then you need to take that motor apart, and rebuild it because SOMTHING is waaaaaaay off.. a bent rod wont vibrate that much but a bent crank defaintly will... take the crank out and send it to a machien shop to see if its straight

For your sake, I hope it's a loose motor mount.
But if your valves are knocking that bad, I'd listen too bigredhead as if they were my grandmother with her lickin' stick in hand.
If you can't fix it with a, its an electrical problem.

i think it's ok, it was just revving too high. still ironing out the kinks. took it for it's first blast down the street only in second gear to see how it ran. Ran great, however it has an air leak between the cylinder and the head. You can hear it crack sometimes and I can feel the air being forced out. I'll have to check the gasket this weekend.

If you're choke is turning on by itself then it sounds like your fetzer valve is sticking and is full of gunk.
