lt230 takes a vm26 an a lt160 takes a vm20 carb,...thankin valves maybe,..had one heathern tryin to ride it an other heathern tryin to hang from my neck..lol,..ill try to take a more serious look again after thay go back to there moms...did get the front brakes workin,..bleed them an thay seem fine!!

 

You saved me again TR i put 1500 ml in and i did prime it, i also did not take the jug off.

 

well i thought i was out of the woods with the top end rebuild, however im still facing the same problem as before the rebuild. the bike will not start cold with or without choke unless i use an eyedropper and pour some gas straight into the cylinder. im not sure if the choke is working the way its supposed to but shouldnt this thing probably start in florida weather without a choke? as far as i can tell the timing is right, but i guess its possible that its off by a tooth or two. probably gonna measure the valves again. *sigh* it never ends lol

 

well finally the snow has made it down to around one foot now, riding season is soon!

 

We hit riding season a month ago, but im stuck inside!!!

 

haha its always riding season in florida

 

not good man, were just putting the snow mobiles away and im getting the 230 already, even though i did ride it some of the winter

 

Dang! 1,000 pages!

Also, 20,000 hits for the Vault!

Trailrider230s, your restoration page has 5,750 hits alone! Nice work gents! Sorry I can't be around or updating the site more....too much going on with school and work and the like.

Got a new toy about a month ago though. Was lucky enough to do a road side alternator swap in the middle of no where, Wisconsin today...that was a hoot! Anyways, school wraps up in mid April, so hopefully I'll be around more then.

 

@atvman

Thank you so much for creating the vault man! It (along with this forum!) Has saved me a lot of hassle when it comes to my 230 and maybe when you get a chance you could throw a few of my pics on there? Thanks again and take it easy...

nice wheels man. are you serious that my page has over 5,000 hits? i never would've thought our resto section idea would get that kind of response. i guess maybe thats a sign that i shouldn't sell "The Mistress", well looks like i will have to go crazy finishing my work on her. got more plans for it now. .

alternator swaps are always fun. i was out checking my trails for flooding when my tensioner pulley siezed up and detroyed my belt. plus the A/C pump locked up..

and you'll be glad to know i am now putting 350 warrior riders to shame.


by the way its riding season here but unless a 230s can double as a submarine, i'm screwed.
