Just Picked Up A Rare Speedo Kit And Other NOS Parts...

[Maine_Triker]

We just got back from central Maine, and went to see a dude with a bunch of old parts.

We picked up a Big Red 250ES speedometer kit. The kit is new, but is missing the cable and some wires. The speedo gearbox was never touched, and when I opened it I saw that HA0 was stamped on it...
So, anyone want to trade this kit for a 350x one? :D

Also picked up some OEM 964 parts, some sort of tool, a speedo cable for the 200e (don't know if it fits yet), a electric speedo kit for a 200sx, a Big Red bearing, some rubber stuff, and some Rubber Footpegs for a 200sx, will try to put them on an ATC.

Hey, we paid only $50 for all of this!!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :Bounce :Bounce :p

Hey John, if no one trades the 250ES kit for a 350x kit, I'll be needing one of those 350x mounting brackets :naughty:

OOPS, I almost forgot, the same guy has a couple new Hondaline bumpers for a TRX200 if anyone is interested...

Hey Maine Triker, where about's in central maine does this person live??

[jeswinehart]

It sure is fun to find those out of the way places that have a stash of vintage parts. Very nice score for sure.

i'll make up one this weekend Maine_Triker.

Hermon (by Bangor). I took all he had that was ATC related though. He didn't have much. I'll PM you his phone #, etc.

Phil

[ATCwithdrawals]

does he have any trikes or did he just have some parts to get rid of?

Swinehart.... can you make 2 while you are at it? :D I found another complete 350X speedo head and mounting kit. Everything is there except the mounting bracket... he sold to someone for a 85/86R.

Maine Triker .... Since you swooped those footpeg covers out from underneath me :mad: from HondaATC .... I'd like to find a set for my 82R else see if Pat Blackwell could use them.

sure thing buddy ,,,, alu or steel ? phil ,,, what do you want ?

alu shines up very well ,,, steel paints very well.

john

Hmmmmm.... how about one of each? :D I'll be using this on my daily driver... I'll use the OEM one on my "Supermodel"... so I guess just do what's easier. Dang... guess we'll have to start another Genny Tally!

Bruce

[jeswinehart]

Bruce ,,,, I thought you are still 2 down :)

[Maine_Triker]

Withdrawals: No he didn't have any trikes, just some parts, and lots of motorcycles and other motorized units.

Swinehart: Hmmmm, I'll take whatever you think is closer to stock. The stock one is black right? So I guess it'd be the steel. Will get those pics to you of the fender brace probably tomorrow.

Bruce: How long are your 250r footpegs? I know that the 250es ones are about the same as the 350x, so Pat will need some non-200e kind. Hey, you looking for some 964 piston rings? You can have these for cheap, we're not going to use them.

[Rex Karz]

Maine_Triker, what brand and size are those Wooly's on Your 350X ?

[Maine_Triker]

Hey Rex, I'm not sure what tires they are they were on the X when I bought it. (I'm not a big tire guy)

Bruce, get me the mesurements of your footpegs, the ones I just got might fit on the 200e style of peg, but they are too long. They do not fit on 250es/350x/84 250r pegs. You can have these if you think you can make them work.

If they are too long for the 350X, I'm sure I can get them to fit on my 82R. I will have to drill holes in the 82R pegs regardless. I'm interested in those piston rings too. You know the sizes? I got a .25 over piston sitting right here, but no rings. Also, I MIGHT be trading my Go-Go 350X for a Big Red. If so, I'll have an extra 350X speedo gearbox and will be needing the 250ES Big Red speedo kit. :D

PS - My latest 82R came with the Hondaline Fairing, and Wooly Bogger tires..... going to make it into a winter racer..... that's what those rubber footpeg covers are designed for in the first place!!

The rings are standard bore. I will dig out the PN's later tonight. You can have all of it for 30 bux shipped (rubber footpegs, and both sets of rings) or 25 bux if you only want 1 set.

If you do get the Big Red, I would be very interested in that trade. :naughty:

Phil

[Maine_Triker]

The PN's on both sets are 131A2-964-003. I ran this on Service Honda and it is the standard bore. Then I saw the price!! :eek: I should be charging you more LOL J/K.

[jeswinehart]

Are you guys talking about those rubber foot peg add on things ??? that set i got from you bruce mounted up on my 350x pegs with a little hand filing to egg out 1 hole. i love those things ! i also have a set on my bigred that i got from bruce.
hey Phil ,,, that picture of that bracket for a bigred looks exactly like the bracket that is on my 1985 bigred. you called it a 84 bracket in the e-mail.
did you mean a 85 - 86 bigred ,,, well if you didn't they very well might not have changed anything on that bracket.
( i'd sure like to see a set go to 200Xmans wife ,,, she rides a 250 bigred - hint-hint :) )

my steel fella did not have the material i wanted so i'm gonna do up your brackets from alu. i am positive they will be strong enough but won't know for sure till i get them cut out + bent to correct position. i'll know in the morning.

i bet there ain't much a MPH difference in the drive units from a bigred over a 350x unit.

I have to give credit where credit is due. My wife rode the Big Red around our yard a couple of times before TF but never rode it there. I think you are thinking of Keri, Mike from L.I.'s wife. She actually took her Big Red out on the trails and has a few bruises to prove it. :D

[Maine_Triker]

John, that cannot be. The 200e/es brackets are different from the 250es ones. (see attached pic). :wondering Also they mount on different sides... :confused:

Anyway, the fender brace and 200e/es bracket will be headed your way tomorrow. When you ship it back, you might as well send it with the 350x speedo bracket to save on the shipping cost. ;)

It would be cool if you could start selling your stuff on eBay (grab bars, speedo brackets, fender braces, speedo tach combo dashes :D ). If I didn't already have my chrome 6-pack rack, I'd be wanting one of your grab bars :naughty:

Those speedo brackets are coming along nice!!
Phil

EDIT: The difference in the gearboxs is ~6% ;)

[350x'inNY]

Bruce ,,,, I thought you are still 2 down :)

Swinehart... those were 30 packs... not a case. So 6 -30 packs = 7½ cases... hehehehhehehe... plus you don't know the aggrivation it was to Holic to find that beer! hahaahaha

If those rings are for a std piston, they will be no use to me.
Bruce, get me the mesurements of your footpegs, the ones I just got might fit on the 200e style of peg, but they are too long. They do not fit on 250es/350x/84 250r pegs. You can have these if you think you can make them work.

You need my address?

Does Anybody Know If They Made A Speedo And Tach Gauges For 1984 200x If So Where Can I Get Em?

[atcmatt]

Wanna sell me the 250es Kit??? :cool: I want one BAD!!!

Matt

[Maine_Triker]

Morning all,


Does Anybody Know If They Made A Speedo And Tach Gauges For 1984 200x If So Where Can I Get Em?

Yup, there was a tach for the 200x if I'm not mistaken. Speedos are fairly popular compared to the right side ones. I would recommend eBay.


Wanna sell me the 250es Kit??? I want one BAD!!!

Matt

Well, Matt, anything is for sale for the right price.


You need my address?

Bruce

PM it to me. If you can't make them work, just ship them back, if they do work out, just send me what ever there worth, I'd say 20 bux.

Phil

[jeswinehart]

Yes i got confused about the brackets. you are right Phil.
Bruce ,,, so you still owe me then - lol. ! can only imagine what you had too endure on the little ride in the scud. How many "beer" stops did you make anyway ???

okay ,, 6% difference in speedo drive units from x to es. that sound like a bunch but lets figure the numbers ( help me out 350XinNY ).
at 30 MPH it would be 1.8 MPH ,,, @ 60 MPH it wold be a 3.6 MPH difference ( plus or minus ? ) . Any where close Bruce ???

yeah i was talking about those rubber footpeg thing for Carrie ( poor typing on my part ).

Those brackets are done guys,,, i'll send them out in the morning .

Putting an ES gearbox on an X: When 50 mph is displayed, your really going 47ish.
It's opposite when using an X gearbox on an ES. ;)
