Back in June of 1985 DG had an add in Dirtwheels that consisted of a water cooled head for the 81-84 250R. It reads,DG'S water cooled head lowers head temperature to a maximum of 270 degrees. Kit comes complete with radiator, head and all of the hardware. $299.00. They also offered the radial heads like Trikeaholic's for $99.95. There are also many different kits (Johny's speed and chrome,PK Racing etc.) that offer a rear bolt on suspension for Atc 185, 185s, 200, 200s, 200m and trimoto 125 and 175 for $309. Is there anything trikeaholic hasn't found yet? How about a 25hp kit for a 200x. includes;
66 mm 13.5 piston
dual pattern TC race cam,HD valve springs and titanium retainers
"special" 31 mm Lectron powerjet carb kit
TC (TC Racing Products)dyno developed pro-pipe with silencer
Flowported oversized valve racehead by TC Racing
$599.99
These any many other great parts must still exist somewhere (California hint hint), so there is hope. :beer
That is all for now because I have to go riding now.

You can get about any magazine from back in the day and find stuff like that. Tons of small and large companies with niche products and mods.

Notice the word "had", I did, A few guys on here saw it, I sold it on ebay when I parted out my 84'. Made a nice amount.
