Excited? That's an understatment bud! :Bounce
You know.. those header nuts came right off with a little heat. :naughty: :welcome: I got new OEM studs and hardware on the way... along with alot of other goodies! :D
Really tho... I just wanted to knowwhat some others think about that guard? I love it!
Wheeleiepop... YEAH.. I deserved that! :lol: but to answer your question... The sky's the limit!!!!!

That's what I was just gonna say. It would look nice if the frame had fresh PC or paint, the exhaust was chromed, the engine was polished...
Right now it kinda looks like putting gold earrings on a really ugly chick. She's not any prettier, but now you dropped money on it too!
Get that trike cleaned up nice and we'll talk! :naughty:

Give me a few months... and I'll post some pics! :naughty: This is made specifiacally for the 85 350X.. and probably the 86 as well.
Lots of other goodies I'm keepin under wraps tho... :naughty:

keep an eye on engine temp. it could restrict airflow to the radiator.
but it looks Strictly Race man!

Thats what i was thinking about when i looked at your's. if you got some bling under there maybe you'd be able to see the rads
Come on Chris dont hold out on me. Shoot me a PM :naughty:, I can keep a secret :shiftyeyes:

Now that you mention it Nate... can you even see the oil cooler when the tank and shroud is mounted? :confused: Syko still has the tank (being painted) so I wont know for a few more days.
Don't matter... I know its there! :D but yeah... that would look killer on a tri z for sure!

No chris, But I think the fact its black doesnt help.
I dug this out of my stash

I like it. In certain angles, you can see the oil cooler but like nat said since it is black you dont notice it too much.
I might have to get me one of those. My guard is all banged up.
These boys are harsh on the ol' 350x. :)

I love it but it does seem like it would block about 40% or so of the air flow. In the winter no biggie but a hot 80-90 degree summer day, you may want it off ?
I think possibly you can get a temp guage Chris to take the place of the oil dip stick, it would be interesting to have the guage on and run guard with it off and on, on the same day, just to see how much hotter it runs.
Something like this one
http://www.xrsonly.com/content/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=1008&category_id=139&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=77
If your threads match that may fit (be pretty cool too!) as long as there are no obstructions close to the fill hole that would get in the way of the guage.
Some guys even make them for fairly cheap.
well thanx for getting me that chriss!! I will shurly take that in place instead of the rest of your pay ment for your tank.......

I really dont think a diffrent screen protecting an oil cooler will matter much. I've seen pics of some of you guys running your X's completely coverd in mud.. I'm sure the cooler gets covered as well. I never heard anyone say anything to that effect. but I'll keep my eye on it just incase,

Yea but no one REALLy knows how much difference it makes, I think a guage would be trick man!
I wouldn't think it would get covered with mud, I mean it's up really high ?
Tell ya what, some day I'm getting one for the 650, I'll bring it up and see if it fits yours, do some scientific tests if it does ! :D

still a radiator. just because oil and not antifreeze is coursing through the innards makes the aluminum cooling device a non-radiator? :crazy: :rolleyes: :banned: :lol:

Couldn't a regular air-cooled cylinder and head also be called "radiators", because they work by process of radiating heat out into the ambient air to cool the engine?

Yup time for a teardown and rebuild...... Whats this 6 exhaust systems and 12 sets of tires?
I have to say i have yet to miss my old 350x - and I had a sweet super late 86 model with absolutely no cracks. Even with a buying a tecate that needs mucho attention to stay running.

Hi All
Chris shot me an email and said I ought to come on and say Hi, so here I am.
Yea, I lost interest in the 3 wheelers but don't get me wrong, I will always love them.
I think I'm going to sell EVERYTHING in a package deal, the 300R, 125M, 3 Yam 225's (none in running status but know the one will) and ALL the Hon/Yam parts I have including the batch of fairings, super SUPER rare 250R air ducts (am I the only one to have them ?) and every 3 wheel part I have.
All for $2500 FIRM,FIRM,FIRM (unless I get higher offers) .......I think it's a heck of steal !! I imagine JUST the 300R alone is worth 2000 or so and the 125M, well that's in very good shape, that's got to be up around at least 9-1100 , there just are not many of those to be had any more.
Truth be told ..........I'm just too lazy to work on the stuff anymore and my motox bikes are enough "work" for me, I'm just tired of having a cluttered garage and hope who ever buys them finishes them (84300R and 87 125M) to the standards I carried through on them.
Can't get my pictures to load right from the camera so maybe once I place the add Chris, if you (or anyone else) have pic's or links to the things I'm posting in classifieds, by all means post them for me.
I have some pic's in photobucket, but not very many.
IF I ever do get another wheeler, I'll just get a 86/7 200X, which of course is and always will be my favorite "do it all" machine, but we sure had fun on those 250SX's Chris , some good times !! :beer
So any ways, what's new with you all, anyone else that dissapeared form this site besides me :(
So what's edog been up to, how many pictures of his R is he up to now, 3 -400 or so ? :rolleyes:
Burraaaaap and W/P still around ?
