You ever gonna do anything with the 185s? I just bought another '81 185s the other day and it has had a 200 top end put on it. I started it up for the 1st time after I got it home..previous owner never ran it after putting it together. Has a straight pipe on it and has been geared down...its a stump puller....lol
Nice man! Yeah, i don't know, i've got alot of projects, and the 185s isn't that high on the list. Nothing against it, theres just alot of other stuff i have to get to first. Glad yours worked out so well man! :)
hey do youu thin this is is a good deal im gettin a 19885 200x for free the valve droped into the hea .... but it come with a spare motor that runs and a never used fmf pipe
@tommartyn i live in chicago, i would be willing yo pay... depending how much shipping cost are... and the tires if you would take them off and flatten them and band them together they don't get too big... if you find out the bolt pattern and sizes of the wheels and everything... opportunity to make a few extra bucks
Yeah most hondas are pretty easy to work on ile say, but replacing a 250sx u joint boot isn't. Had to pull the axle, axle shaft, diffy, swinger, shock, and drive shaft just to replace a peice of rubber. Glad your having fun tho, you almost look overwhelmed with soo many projects but all seem worth it
Thats a shame man. Try driving around and looking on peoples property, if you see something cool, go up and knock on their doors. People are normally pretty friendly.
Yeah, but its a sliver looking color, the galvanized coating on the atc parts, has an almost bronze look. Kinda a slight orangeish bronze look. It would be hard to recreate.
Tom i think it kinda neet how you usually leave a lengthy decscription of whats been going on lately or whats in the content of the video.Alot of people are too lazy to do so!ALSO are you ever going to get back into tractors/romping like you guys used to-thats what got me watchin ur vids anyways,I just thought it was cool how u and your buddies have so much fun together with old junk and bacardi 151...
hahah, thanks man. Most people complain about the lengthy descriptions, so i definitely appreciate that.
I do want to do some bolens action again, it just takes so much work. I still have all the tractors, i just need to dedicate some time to fixing the bastards :) Somebody beat the shit out of them.
yeah, I've got another set of them too, on aftermarket rims on my other 200x. They might be a different size though. But the bolt pattern on the bead locks doesn't fit anything i've got.
haha, nah, i think they are a different pattern then both, the 90 seems pretty small, and the warrior is probably the same as a blaster, and i tried them on my cousin's blaster. No luck
Yeah, i guess they're cool. Little too fancy pants for me. plus the bolt pattern seems to be different from everything i've got, hahah :) I was hoping my cousin steve could use them on his blaster, but still a different pattern. They would be pretty good on there though, make the thing more stable, They seem like about the right height.
@tommartyn Wow, why is there so many different bolt patterns for all those 3 wheelers, if anything man sell those tires on craigslist I'm sure you'll get a nice buck out of them.
Man, don't get me started on all the fucking differences between each model and year of honda three wheelers... There are so few things interchangeable its horrible.
The most interchangable parts, are the front and rear wheel bearings. They are the same on everything, except all 70's, 90's, early 110's, 250es's and 250sx's...And 350X rear bearings are different. Steering stem bearings are mostly the same as well... Its crazy. They just never reused pars really. GAS CAP's sometimes
@tommartyn I wonder why they did that. Seems like it would just cost the makers more money, why not use most of the same parts for 4-5 years then switch, it's whatever, but I never knew there was so many different parts on those 3 wheelers, I would of figured they'd all be interchangeable but guess not..
haha, someone flagged your comment. You must be making youtube enemies man :) Maybe one of your scraping competitors found your account, and flagged you.
haven't really had time to mess with tractors man. Working so much, and working on the 3 wheelers too.
I don't know about the brat... I might just try to weld some shit on for romping use, we'll see. Haven't really had time to take that project on either. Still gotta finish welding the willys too.
That gas is fucked man! You know when its bad it doesn't smell as strong anymore and stars to get a color to it. I laughed hard when you wheely'd in with that trailer tire on the front haha.
yeah, its weird though, because the gas shouldn't be old, we've been romping it since i got the thing :) Ran tons of tanks of fuel through it. But for sure, that was some nasty fuel. I think some of it is from flipping upside down all the time and going under in the creek with it. Guess it got in through the vent or something.
It kinda depends on how you look at it. These 3 wheelers are made to be abused this way, The bolens aren't, so its just a million times harder on them. So, considering all that, i think they hold up incredibly well.
If you pushed the three wheelers that far past their limits, and purpose, I don't think they would hold up nearly as well.
In the 200s? For the honda's i always buy sealed bearings, they are pre greased :) So thats helpfull. But seriously man, all summer long, we were driving up the creek, in up to 4 feet of water (normally flipped upside down around the 3.5 foot mark) every saturday night. For about 3 hours, so they were spending about 3 hours underwater every weekend. Took a toll :)
is that big red a 200 or 250
