My first thought is where in the world can a fellow get the parts for the recoil starter compression release. I bought my ATC200S without these parts about six months ago. I did not try to start the rig until a few days later and found that no way in hell was I going to be able to start the unit with my bum right shoulder. At that time I was a complete newbie to the world of ATVing. Since then I've done my home work and am acquiring a knowledge base for myself that has been quite rewarding. Is there on this site people who actually deal in old and hard to find parts? If there are I would like to make contact with you folks and hopefully do some business. I've been studying up on the starter and have been able to get a couple of the parts. If anyone reading this has a good lead on these parts please contact me, I would imagine that you would know how to. Thanks for listening to me.

 

after you check parts fiche and have part numbers and know which other models will interchange- ebay sometimes is your friend. but look over at 3WWW.com and search around you will have to join to post anything but lots of folks there have a stockpile

 

Thanks Dammer I'll go over and have a look.

 

Hi all, i'm still on my quest to repair my 85 ATC200Ss recoil starter. Now I'm looking into an electric start kit from GOKI, problem being pricing, they want as much as I paid for the rig. Oh Well nobody said a quest was supposed to be easy. Ya'll have a good one. Ridingtherod
