The Project thread.

What procrastination have you been doing lately. Thinking how much you would like to get it done.. but you just don't. And what you would rather be doing.
The 85 tecate needs the steering head bearings replaced and the rear carrier bearings replaced. I have the parts I even moved it to the garage we park in so I would have to walk around it. Haven't gotten to it yet. It now has the plastics from my 84 on it.

The 84 is running great, but is jetted fat. It was jetted spot on in Southern California apparently it needs leaned out for Kansas. Expansion chamber from Orangecnty250r really woke it up.

The LT80 (Yeah.. it's in here too) is getting the carb cleaned, a new airbox elbow, and the autolube removed. Its somehow leaking premix into the carb filling it up while sitting.

The Parts Tri-zingers I had huge plans for.. I wanted to make a Tri-zinger race team. They are mostly complete.. I will probably part them out. Holla if you need something.

The 1 running Tri-zinger runs good but loads up. This is due to the oil leak from between the engine cases, where they meet the cylinder. I don't have the parts yet. I'm apprehensive about how much I will have to take apart to replace the center case gasket.

The wifes 200X looks and runs great since the revamp for the Midwest trike rampage in Oklahoma. The only thing wrong with it is the rear shock needs rebuilt or a suitable replacement found from a newer quad. I had heard that a 300ex shock would work. The 200x is sporting my fathers day present from my kids and the wife. Ohtsu H Track 902 tires on Mitchell wheels.

I saw them on Craigslist local and showed them to the wife. She went and got them for fathers day. A pair just went for over $100 on Ebay, just the tires. These look almost new on Mitchell wheels in really good condition.
$60 I'm excited..

If you're ever near Coffeyville, Kansas stop by for a ride on the dirt oval I'm making in the back yard and go for a swim. :w00t:

Nice projects. I have my 200x that seems like it will never be finished and the 110 that I haven't even started messing with yet.

you know i may actually be interested in a zinger, but i dont know anything about them. Tell me about them and maybe ill come pick that blue one up from ya!!

also i will only come for a swim if i can bring my speedo!!!!!

j/k, whats the deal with zingers? are they two stroke/four stroke? cc? stuff like that.

[dcreel]

The zingers are 60cc 2 strokes, auto clutch 3 wheelers with front suspension. I really like them alot. The blue one is in decent shape. The motor is apart the jug and head are off. The crank seems okay. The only thing wrong with it is the forks are bent a little. Not so bad as to make it unusable and may be fixable. All of the parts are there. It may need a carburetor. I have one but it has seen better days, and is missing the choke plunger and cable. The yellow one runs okay and still hauls the mail.

Let me know..

[Dammit!]

I've got a 200x project that's been going on for about 3 or 4 years now. :lol: It's just such a low priority that it rarely gets any attention. Right now I need to strip some parts off another 200x donor bike I got, fix them up and send them off for powder coat. Everything else is already PC'd. Then I need to fix a couple things on the motor I'm going to use, paint it, paint the exhaust and then I can start putting things together. One more trip to the powdercoater and I can at least have a roller. Once it's on all three I might get motivated to finish it. Maybe not. :D

Then I have a 1985 250R project back in the corner. No rush getting to that one either. My main riders both need some work done before either of the projects are getting touched.

[joshco84]

well whats it goin to take to get the blue one? i may be buying a 350x for dirt cheap in the next week or two, but maybe in a month or so i could take it off your hands.
