Swapped a 200x front end onto the SX, i just need to get the steering stops welded on before the weekend. Here's a quick before and after, it only took about 45 minutes of actual work...

86 350X
85 350X daily rider
LC 250R
85 T3
86 T3 roller
85 250sx beater
Cleaned My 250r for about 4 hours. Then pulled out the bigred and cleaned up the rear brake setup (full of mud and crap) and did a diff oil change. Glad I did, thanks to the guy with the beat on SX. Took them both for a sort ride and put them away! The red is so much more user friendly and cruisier than the R. Definately horses for courses.

1980 ATC 70 Needs Restoration
1985 ATC 250es Fully Refurbed
1986 ATC 350x Mint Original
Rebuilt a front caliper for's 250R. Sent him off with his ATC70 (our next series of projects!)
And did some jetting on the 200X. Got it running about 90% with the airbox lid on so I must need to increase that mine quite a bit to get that lid off.....
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
Bought a set of 350x forks and trees for my 200es off of fleabay to replace and up date the stock set.

Adjusted chain and cleaned chain guard out on 70 hybrid, ran her hard in the cold Ohio snow and swamp the other night! Worked on getting my new 90cc kaitham motor in the swamplady. Posted some pics of new project, in classifieds though? No ride today. Sold a tractor, ahh... more swamplady money!!! p.s anyone know where I can get some atc 70 mud tires pretty reasonable? good wheelies to all!!
Cleaned the carb and got my one 70 running. Pulled the gas tank off of one of my big reds and got it ready to fix the leak it has. Finally was able to break free one of the bolts that let you adjust the chain on my 350x. The changed the oil on the 350x and put a real nice set of Razr's on too. Plus alot of bolt tightening and lever swapping.

Took the 225dx for a ride. Decide the bald duro knobby front tire needed to be replaced, so I ordered a Kenda Front Max. Should be able to pick it tomorrow.

Took the engine out of my 83 YTM 200. Wish I could have power washed it first (too cold here).
Just installed a new chain and a new sprockets on my R. 12 tooth front - 40 tooth rear.
Stared at the mess surrounding them for a few minutes then went back in the house.
I honestly have not touched my big trikes in some time.
The last time I did touch one, I put this FMF fatty on my R and ditched the black DG I had. Around December?
Been gettin the 70's dialed in, those are done.
I have been building a 310Z motor for a friend..
Next week I am doing a crank in a R engine for another friend..
Thats about it.
For once, my stuff dont need anything..
Except that dang coffee table Banshee thing of hers....
Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...
