Me?

 

yea.

well was riding trails and such yesterday when i felt my throttle was acting a little funny. It seemed like it kept sticking. Well was riding a back a long narrow path in 4th gear and went to let off throttle and yea she didn't slow down. It was right at a Y in the path and i was following my friend on his old 3 wheeler. He went towards the left and i went right because i knew i was gunna fly into him. Also the path going right was banked a little bit so i got air flying over it and laned on a path that ended about 300 ft or less in front of me. I just switched off the run switch and yay i rolled to a stop. I now realise the reason you don't fly through water holes in 4th gear because, you get all the mud and coal-dirt/ water on the pivot point on the thumb throttle and it makes it want to stick. I just realise that i was da*n lucky, for my sake and my lt230's lol. Man if that Y wouldn't have been in the trail ide be screwed right now lol, Dude that woulda hurt, kissing a tree at in 5th gear. But ide do it so i wouldn't hurt a friend. It happens

 

just took a wire wheel on a drill and cleaned them up, then plain old spraypaint.....that one is to sell, so i wasnt too meticulous about it

 

Well guys, I sold my lt230, but plan to get another soon. I told the guy who got it about this thread so be on the look out. He might have questions.

 

well i just increased my work load. i will be building 2 230 quadsports at the same time. Complete engine up restore. my little brother bought one for himself and now i get to restore it too. plus i may have another 230 for myself, for $50. the guy cant get it runnin and is tired of dealing with it so he said he'd rather sell it than pay to have it worked on again. so if i get it ,and if anyone that lives near ohio and wants it, i'll fix it myself and make sure its perfectly safe, then i will haggle on the price.

 

If I only live near you trailrider. I got a line on a lt250r that I might pick up. I do not know yet.

 

I have almost finished my case saver. I have changed the design a little, but its starting to look good and it fits correctly, so everything should go good hopefully. I just have to weld some spots and then sand it. The only reason I am spending so much time on a case saver is because i'm switching my center cases on the 250s engine this week, and I'm sick of having cracked center cases.

 

you do realize that the cases are the same right? the 250s and 230s use the same stock case saver. there is really no difference in the two. matter of fact the 250s crank fits the 230s block. thats how back in the late 80's they made the stroker 230s engine. plus the tranny gears are completely interchangable.

 

So I've read through the pages and i see talk about a warrior rear shock working on the 230's does it matter what years? Also do any mod's have to be done to get the warrior rear shock to fit? And what year lt250s camshaft will work for the 230's?

 

The warrior rear shock works great on my 230. You will however have to make new bushings for the top and bottom shock mounts as the warrior uses slightly larger mounting bolts.
