Thanks Big Mc I have been doing ok, like you I have been having a hard time getting seat time this year. No body's fault really. I bet I can go back through the pages and about this time last year I was probably wanting to do the same things to the LT. Working on lengthening the swing arm finally. I would be happy to ride your machine for you if you can't find the time. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Well thats mighty good of you UG. I need someone to ride this thing. But Im afraid it might dissapoint. It may not be what your use't (accustomed) too.
It only pulls the front tires off the ground in the first 3 gears. I need to ride it more to keep the compression up.............

Hey man Ive got this 230 and have a problem with it. It will not run (without me) the motor runs good (when I get a chance to fire it up) And the clutch trys to stick (after 6 months of sitting idel).

The tires are not holding air and the fuel **** sticks.

If I do get it fired up it spits out this black **** looking stuff and smokes for a short time.

The chain gets dry and the grease in the bearings gets thick for some reason.



Right now the plastic is dusty, the seat is a shelf and I think pac-rats have taken up in the K&N.



Can YALL help me out?

YEP! I can help! Ride that badass 230 fire breathing machine on a regular basis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
