Got it down off the bench
Got it down off the bench
Took the front triples off the sons unit, (250R Racer) and serviced it ! It wouldn't turn , it needed Cleaned lubed and reinstalled, now it steers! Then I rejetted mine and made sure the trany was shifting. Couldn't ride it, crappy weather.
Super cool^ I often stick my bro and my mini bikes in my 1980 Fairmont wagon.
I repainted the tank on our 84 big red, and started on modifying the big reds headlight bracket to fit the X forks. We got a nice one that was almost new with it that I put on the 83 already, and the 83s bracket was bent as fark. So I cut that one up.
I re used all of the original steel, just cut it and moved it. Im using fluxcore untill I get more gas so the welds are not pretty lol.
I still need to make little mounts to bolt it down., so its just sitting there. Both tubes have the same bend just like they did orionally, I just cut them off and re-welded them on the other way around.
Collected AND distributed parts for my own and other 3 Wheeler World members trikes!
Well we had a bit of warm weather and some of the snow melted away, so my two buddies and me went and took my 85 tri-z and two 85 atc250r's out for a rip! naturally as we climbed in elevation we hit snow,
more snow and then deep snow.. had to turn back, good times though.

I moved most of them to the back yard to clean up the garage.

New engine/axle sprocket and chain on 200X, along with new Axle bearings. I should have know upon pulling the old crappy bearings I would see "CHINA" written on them..
ALSO, I read about flipping the dogbone bracket that the rear shock bolts to on the swinger to allow added ride height. Let me just say that this WORKS and it does not affect the tension of your chain ( I was afraid that the difference in angles may require another link or two in the chain but does not.)
I also have a before and after pic of this too if anyone cares to see it.
