Hardtail handler

Not everyone can afford a 200x, 250r or 350x, in this channel I am looking to show what a 200 or 185 is fully capable of while showing the costs and build list for different machines. Each machine will be put up against a stock 185 or 200 so show the gains with each new part. Possibly put on a dyno as well. I’m no mechanic so let me make mistakes for you so you can learn from them without paying the price. Feel free to comment with pointers to help guide me in the right direction when I do make mistakes. Willing to try new things! Summer 2026 builds should include high compression kits, shaved heads, diy port jobs, possibly lightening flywheels, at home powder coating jobs and your average barn find machines taking a beating. My favorite thing is making parts work in places they shouldn’t! 

Current build is a 200s with eBay can, Amazon exhaust, and a nibbi 28mm carb. Big gains for a few hundred bucks.
