I moved my 200es(until I can get her a new tank), my 200s(she needs a ring job and clutch work), and my Suzi 185(she's the skank of the bunch) out of my shop to a friend's huge storage building to make room. I can now fit a Geo Metro in my shop without having to pull everything out!
This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.
Today I installed my rear axle as it was bent and I had it straightened, also changing my rear tires.
Derusted a 200x tank yesterday and will Kreem today. Rebuilt 200x brake master cylinder for the Nick.
took pictures of my new tecate for everyone to see. and then rode it for a few, wanting to see what it does in about a inch of snow. lol

played with my atc 70 that I bought. It bought it as non running. I adjusted the valves, cleaned the carb, checked the timing, and tightened the cam chain. Then I found out that the intake studs had a helicoil in it that was not doing its job. When you try to tighten the nut it pulls the stud out. Gotta fix that.

Over the last week or so, I finally finished tearing my 350X beater apart and sent the frame off to TPC for gussetting.
While that's out for work, I'm cleaning up the major sub-assemblies. I started with the forks. I took them apart and bead blasted the tripples and the fork lowers. This is my first major use of my bead blaster and it's awesome!
One of the fork tubes is bent so it goes to the shop for tweaking this week.
And, the Loncin 200X got a longer shifter. The shift shaft is in the same location as a Honda 200x engine but the shaft is shorter so a 200x shifter won't clear the stator cover. The Loncin shifter was about 2 inches too short - it was a pain to ride with - I have big feet. I spent about 2 hours looking and shifter pictures on eBay and found a heel & toe shifter from a Chinese quad that looked like it would work. Cut off the heel part and it works fine.
Got my cases to match up finnaly! now i got to wait till friday to re assemble it completely
The '82 hub, axle, disc, and caliper came in today. Guess all the parts are here to make a Fat Tire Thumper
i found some other parts to that caliper Rick ill send them out tomorrow glad to see you got them.
