well, i orderd some new fenders for my 200s, and am debating on wether to drill the holes to put on the back rack or jsut ditch it. how much does the rack help protect stuff if i roll it? not sayn that i'm planning on rolling it, but accidents do happen. i'm wondering because i also redid my seat. looks nice. well, keep the rack, or forget it?

 

IMO...the '84-'86 200S models look better with the rack on them,.....but again, that's just my opinion.

 

I would put the racks on it, it makes it easier for everything. And it looks cool too.

you need the rack!!!!! someone is depending on you to bring the beer cooler along![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

yeah, i think that i will put the rack on, but as for the beer cooler,... i dont think that any container would hold up to the beating that it would get from a rig with no suspension. oh, and i'm only 15, guess its gonna be the Mt. Dew cooler. thats what the front rack is for. i am impressed with how strong the rack appears to be. on another topic, what would be an easy way to shine up my fuel tank? just wax it? how does wax hold up if its splashed with gas? its not too bad now, but i figure since everything else on the machine is going to be new and shiny, i might as well do the tank too. i'll try and get some before and after pics of my toy on my page for you people to drool over! j/k. thanks for the input.

 

I use rubbing compound (very lightly) on the heavy spots. Then go to polishing compound on the entire tank, then finish off with your favorite wax......OH Yea, and Mt. Dew cooler works![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
