Wow, excellent.

Exactly what I thought when I viewed this video, all these posts about what to do to save the sport, this is what we all did when we were that age if we could. This is the grassroots solution, not sure WTC is.

The 200 cota is an actual 175cc.

I have fixed the rear sprocket, solid with no problems. The cam chain can be replaced easily with the engine in the frame. The cylinder head does not even need to be removed. The cover on the top left side of the engine over the camshaft is removed and the chain is replaced through there. You should buy a shop manual to do the job, as the cam has to be timed correctly to the crank. Aftermarket cam chains such as DID or Tsubaki are cheaper than the Honda oem part and from my experience much stronger, longer wearing.

My choice is galfer, best power and feel. Tried them all.

Looks exactly like the Honda cr125 1984 master cylinder I installed on my Montesa 315, when I smashed the stock one. Incedently works much better than the stock ajp one.

Agreed, not Nickelson and thought of Calgary 1975 first world event in Canada as soon as I saw the photo. A Dave Rhodes production I believe.

25 degrees is my preference.

Can you post a photo? I myself have used xr200 engines in many trials frames creations.

Big fan of the s3 hardrock footpegs in steel. Have been abusing them weekly for 2 years now, not a scratch on them.

Yes the frame is exactly the same, as far as dimensions. The road legal reflex has some extra brackets of course for the street legal equipment. The steering head angle is 27 degrees on both.

Congratulations on your fine ride in the Scott, Chris well done

I think you have it right. But you left out the 1997, it had the same small 2 litre carbon fibre tank as the 98 and had either white or black fenders cant remember which. I had a 1998 for 9 years and it was great. My favouite was the all red combination of later years. That 2004 looks cherry very nice.

Thanks for that, very very good. Enjoyed immensely.

Have had problems over the last couple of decades with trials tire creeping on Hondas, TL125, TLR200, XR200. Went to motion pro security bolts 15 years or so ago, much better gripping than the stock Honda rubber rim locks. Dont use two rim locks on any rear rims, even when they came with two from new. As posted above still need to reposition tire on occasion, not very often though maybe two times a year.

No, xr rear sprockets and TLR rear sprockets are not interchangeable. However as noted above in several posts all Honda 200 engines use the same front sprocket, TLR, XR, XL, ATC.

You do realise that the clutch cover on the 200 is part of the oil supply to the top end. Very small openings that are easily plugged causing catastrophic engine failure due to a complete blockage of oil circulation. Not reccomended.

Thanks for the reply ausy300pro regarding the method of increase in displacement. Keep us updated on how it is working out while you continue to develope the engine. Can you let us know what piston you have used? I know what you mean regarding the french company that does the 200cc kit. It is outrageously expensive and they dont reply to inquires about their products..

195 cc thats impressive. Is that the bore kit from france or something you came up with on your own. Bored and stroked or all increase in displacement from just piston size ? I am sure many others would be interested to know.

Thanks for the update, was wondering how it had all worked out. Admire your perserverence.

congratulations on your new bike. Looks like a very good selection of bikes you now have to choose to ride. Clutch lever and Brake lever are the english words.

Trial Trial... I see the Ossa Explorer is now being advertised as in stock at canadian ossa dealers.

Looks good, and well thought out.

That would be the bleed nipple for the clutch slave cylinder. I believe Marzocchi reccomended 7 weight fork oil at that time.

i cleaned my clutch and it was rideable but still dragging for 3-4 outings but its back to dragging bad again. Thats why everyone changes the steel plates to dimpled ones, it fixes the dragging issue.If you replace your clutch plates with the origonal fibre plates it wont help at all. These bikes had this issue from new. Replace the steel plates with dimpled ones (aftermarket) leave the origonal fibre plates in (never seem to wear out) and problem solved.
