Well my 200x is going to be ridden soon, and i'm getting it in shape. So, I hafto hone out the top end, or get it bored. I need a new head gasket, possible new piston if I get the top end bored. The rear end is squeking horribly, and I want to replace the axle bearings. Where can I get them and how tough is this hole process? LMK guys!:w00t:

Pretty easy to change out. If they're not rusted in there. Contact Dads about the bearings. I just changed my axle bearings and front swinger bearings on my wifes 200x today in half an hour. Be patient and don't go nuts with a hammer and chisel. Use alot of P B blaster.

Yeah, I checked prices on ebay and I figure i'll change out the front bearings while i'm at it(about 40-45 bucks total).

I have a good to do list on my 200x, lol, one thing after another..

*Hone/bore cylinder. New head gasket.
*Front & rear bearings.
*Get the rear shock revalved.


Ahh, the $ keeps adding up.
