the oil cooler is off an old water pump. my dad just had it sittin in the shop. so do you guys think fork boots will make it look any better or no boots? and will smaller tires get me more $$$ when i sell it.

I think red boots would look sweet. I don't think 20" or 22" will make much of a diffrence in value of the trike. Although I think a set of 20" razors with the red lettering on the sidewall would look sweet on that machine.

well today im going to work with the diff shock so then i can get the mount made right(first one was too beffey, strong, but to big). so ill be messin with that if i get something to work ill throw a pic up. i sent a pm about the tires the holeshots. (90nut)

havin some trouble getting out the bushing on the top of the 250r shcok. its stuck in there good. its not really the bushing i need to get out it is some spacer. its to big for the 200x top shock mount. but if i get it out it will work. ah what the hell ill go snap a shot so maybe someone can give me a hand.

here it is, i need to get that piece out. its in there good. i guess ill soak it in some lube and if i got to ill just cut it down. its tuff **** tho. dont know how i would cut it.

this black bute is up for sale. found a bad ass car for a few grand and got to sell her. it will have the good rear shock on brfore i let her leave. let me know if you are interested.

I'm lost about the old water pump. How did you do it, And with what parts? Thanx

**vartiak15** · 07-13-2005, 09:09 PM

my bad. the cooler its self is for an old water pump. for the oil cooler you need to drill 3 holes in the side case, tapping into the oil track. first hole to lead to the oil coller. second is a block and 3 is so the oil comming from the cooler can get back in.

here is a pic ill get a better one tomorrow.

The exhaust on that bike, i know it says supertapp but is that actaul 200x axhaust or off a dirtbike. I've often wondered is a XR200 exhaust could be modified to fit the 200X.

**vartiak15** · 07-14-2005, 08:16 AM

no its for a 200x. its rusty tho. it was one of thoes ebay guys saying "light surface rust" well its pitted prertty bad im kinda pissed. o well.

**LaDano** · 07-14-2005, 09:57 AM

If I keep it I'll be asking more details about the oil cooler. Thanx

**vartiak15** · 07-15-2005, 01:44 PM

ok here are some pics to help out

**vartiak15** · 07-15-2005, 01:48 PM

ok now with this pic number 3 is a port. after you put a fittin in here and have all of that done this one leads to the oil cooler. number 2 is going to be a plug in the oil passage way inside the cas. a block off bolt. then number 1 is for the line comming back from the coller so it puts the oil back in the motor. on the side case there is that little marking to the left (number 1) you can use that for a guide on where to put your number 1 fitting. then the plug should be about 1/2 inch over from that and then the other one(number 3) a 1/2 inch over from that. now the passage way you are tappin in to is in the other pic. (no numbers)

ill doulbe check on the whole 1.2 inch thing. it sounds right tho.

**LaDano** · 07-16-2005, 06:43 PM

Looks like I'm gonna keep the x, I wish I seen all of this 2 weeks ago when I put the motor back together. I'm gonna look into this a lot harder, thanx. By the way, how much cooler is it running?
