I just picked this up for $125, listed as an 84 185s. They were only made 81-83, so I don't think it is, especially when the seat doesn't have brackets like my 185s, but more like the 200s system.

Plastics cracked in a few places and missing some pieces, but I REALLY am liking the black look. Has a toolbox, I really wish I could find NOT cracked plastics with the box (maier doesn't have it?) and paint them black properly.....
Anyway, seat is modded/custom. Rack is home made I believe, decent job but odd, there's no connecting bar. Maybe was used constantly for a certain size box or something? There's no middle section on it.....lol
Apparently the inside of the motor looked horrible(??), so the guy threw it out instead of rebuilding?
It has 25" tires. That is mostly why I bought it. I've been looking to make my 200s (will now be using this chassis) into more utility based until I get a 250 big red.
Is this a 200M or 200ES? I will have to look at the VIN tomorrow, I didn't see one tonight.
Footpegs:
I have big feet, they hit the fenders constantly when I try to sit on it. (It almost feels small overall). Anyone know of any footpegs that go forward another 2-3 inches? or will I have to fab something up?
XR Parts swap
I also picked up an XR200 (83) engine, lost spark and needs rings. Got a spare 2000 bottom end too.
Can I use atc 200 parts on it, such as the stator and/or pulse generator? Apparently a new coil did not fix the no-spark issue.
Also, can I use stock 200s top end on the XR bottom end? Maybe get an XR cam? It may be nice to have a kickstarter and clutch and I don't have an extra pullstarter to use.
Thanks
