    Needs nothing, runs good, about 5,000 miles on it. Currently located in WNC and will be in SWFL in several weeks. Don't need four bikes.
    Also want to sell my CT70 clone. Please pm me if you are interested.

    OHHH watcha got there ?!

    As far as the metal rod goes i guess i could remove it and walk around a hardware parts store til i find something to match, then thread that. But as a guy with kids, school, and a full time job that'll be a 2 month project lol.

    I knew it would fit though with all the bad luck and dissatisfaction I've had this engine was getting in there even if I had to mod the frame.

    sure I'll posts results plenty though life keep getting in the way so hang tight.

    not sure if I'm looking more forward to the vtwin styling or a true 18hp output.

    You've been seen around WNC and ETN a lot. It shouldn't be hard to make a deal. Know how you take care of your machines. I would take it but my son turns 15 years old next year. He has his heart set on a TW200 and has saved up his money for a new one. Since he is doing so well in school and really giving his best, I'm going to help him buy it.

    Ordered the 1/4 inch rod and tool and die set, worked like a charm.
    Don't know what I'd do without you guys. Many thanks.

    Pro tip, night riding in the woods greatly increases the chances of nearly hitting or hitting deer.

    TW200 is a neat bike and is be a better choice if your son want to go off pavement.

    He will. Some of his friend's parents own a lot of farmland and he will be riding with them. He'll also be chasing me around your area of WNC on the old forest service roads, logging trails, and fire roads.

    Anyone here know how the spokes and rims are sealed to allow tubeless tires on the DF? Never had my tires off to see the inside of the rim.
