Looks good, I used to own a 200S, great reliabilty. Hey, you guys got snow already! I live in Michigan and love riding in snow but hate the drive to work. No really looking forward to winter I heard it is going to be bad.

 

hey great pics.......thats a pretty spotless bike

the place i work part time has one but it is fouling plugs.......and its never been touched apparently......anything obvious i can look for.....i was going to start out by leaning her up on the fuel......you had any probs?

That snow melted by noon...but it was the first of what I hope is a lot more to come. Last year we rode ATV's all winter as there was not enough for the sleds....bad!!!...had to trailer over to MN to find some snow and they didn't really have a lot either. If you click on "Return to Album List" at the bottom of those 200S pictures you can take a look at some of our winter riding.

Thanks

If it is running rich and fouling plugs I would take a look at the float level and/or needle and seat.

When I went to roll the 200 out for the pictures it had not been run in 3 years...throttle was stuck. I had put it away with stabalizer in the gas but I guess 3 years is a little long. Removed the carb and was able to get the slide out by carefully prying in the throat with a screwdriver. Jets were plugged, float hinge was siezed and even the spring plunger on the needle was stuck. Got her all cleaned up and it runs like a top again. I dumped the gas tank, put in fresh gas with stabilizer, drained the bowl this time and put her back into storage. I will not be letting it sit so long before servicing next time.
