My Upper A Arm bushings need replacing. I saw these on Flee Bay ATV LOWER A ARM BEARING Kit SUZUKI LT 230 S 1985-87 : eBay Motors (item 390180550435 end time May-08-10 10:52:47 PDT) IS This my only option? Hate to drop 50 bucks for stinking bushing!

 

You can find a better deal. Keep looking. Anyway, either the pic is wrong or the application is wrong. I know the 85 and 86 don't look like that, not sure about 87 and 88. Those look like 250S bushings.

 

What did you do to the engine? Or is it just stock running on alkyhaul?

 

Randy,

What do you think about my possible trade? Worth it? He emailed back and said the kick started doesnt work for some reason and they have to pop start it.

 

Yeah the picture is not the right ones. I think they uses a generic picture. Still 50 bucks for bushings. OUCH!

 

What's a ducati engine? I would want the quadracer engine - 2stroke. Otherwise you're just trading a 250 for a 250 basically. Maybe some upgraded suspension. I really don't know enough to advise you.

 

Yeah, and that's $50 each arm! $200 for the whole deal! Which really isn't that uncommon, but you can find better deals. I think rockymountain has then for $75 + $75 for all 4.... $150 total.

 

it's supposed to be a duacti motorcycle engine. The guy kind of sounds like a flake, but I'lll at least take a look at it before I turn him down. A 250 would be a step up from my 230, although I finally have the 230 almost the way I want it.

 

Streetbike engines are typically heavier. The great thing about the 230 is the light weight and the torque of the engine. You're about to possibly eliminate both of those in one trade.

 

well i milled the jug and bored it. had the head reported, titanium valves, new piston. and i think i upgraded the oiling system. i am also running the biggest mikuni carb i could find. oh and a stage3 race grind cam. i borrowed your idea on how to get more air, only i didnt use flex pipe, i used stainless.

hey skullsnaps, i would interested in a stainless head pipe. what would i be looking cost wise?

oh, and randy i will check my list i am sure i forgot alot of stuff i did to that motor. i just sold it thursday for $1500 cash. and i am ready to build another. i know the rod i used i milled myself and balanced it too.
