WoooooHooooo, managed to get out on the tlr at last. so latest mods are......the alloy muffler, junked airbox and long inlet running to a uni filter,pilot 20, main jet is now mikuni 102.5. Had an hour down at the river doing some sections with some tough climbs too......way,way,way better.May be worth trying a 105 main, but I'm not too far of now....WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO. Did a flat out plug chop and the colour was good, power was almost perfect with no stammering like before, defo good enough to use in a trial now . Added bonus is getting rid of that piece of sh*t airbox, makes working on the thing SOOOOO much easyer.

Had a mate way back when, who raced TZ yam's. After the race meet, he would tip the fuel/R mix into his transit......the result was as the above photographs.

shoot, that is a clever dodge....and CHEEP

think the original rears were a bit short....stick some 400mm ones on.

another way is to screw a couple of self tappers in to the old seal.....then pull it out with some grips.

well said duncan, I always say go to the dunny and drop last nights tea out and you will save way more than you can drill out of the bike!!!!!

What Turps said.

Hi Mark, I used a piece of 4" pipe to do the big curve, and then a piece of 2" to bring the top end back up at the 45 degree angle. Heat was supplied by the oxy acetylene plant at work.....just heat it enough to bend it, should go easy enough between cherry red and orange ( more toward the orange).....if you get it yellow/ white you gone too far .

Ok, I guess it was a big ask and I didn't think anything would be suitable. So.....took the xr200 kicker I've been using( which needed the footrest hooking up out of the way), and gave it the heat treatment, results are in the pictures. also made some alloy snail cams for chain adjustment...turned out well. .

Cool, keep us posted hoodie.

Hi folks, just wondering if there is such a thing as a alloy kickstarter to fit the honda 200 engines, be nice if it missed the footpeg too.

Nice work crowley, I like specials, and that is well done.

Nice update on your build Ross. Great weekend at the Ihatove......I've been wearing a huge smile all week. Cheers Trev (black Honda special)

Any idea which rims OTF ?. Is it as simple as spanish bikes ok, but japers not? or is it waaaaay more complicated than that? Cheers.

I'm looking at this thread with interest, as I was thinking of removing the lighting coil on my XL200R trials special....but been a dumb ass when it comes to electics, some advice would be most welcome.

the covers will ally weld ok....you just need to find an engineering shop that can do it.

Ditto your opinion Scot, Mick is the real deal and a thoroughly nice bloke too.

hey B.O.C. 6 months since your last post.....and we're still watching this space !!!!!! Are you any further along with your O.K.O. fitment?

Thanks Mark, due to other commitments, I've been struggling to find the time to sort it out. Thanks for your settings, I'm hoping to have a go soon.

B.O.C., who's doing the OKO for you?

Well Dude, for a crap camera.....they bl**dy good shots. Stick with it, and hope Santa brings you a better one.

are new seals not available......shurely they can't be too expensive???

I agree with Andy, certainly looks like a TLR and a 250 too as it's got the BIG fins on the barrel. So....why you worried about the engine number, get out and have some fun on it.

triple X, why not just put a sanding disc in yer grinder and remove the 'not for road use' wording off your tyre. The tyre is well up to been used on the road, and which plod is going to know what brand of tyre is "good or bad" if the wee markings are not there to tell them?

Duzzna look like any Greeves i ever seen.Are there any other parts with it?
