[QUOTE="1Bigdog, post: 1479556, member: 146457"] I’ve been riding for 62 years, have owned several bikes, did the majority of my riding in Colorado on trails we snowmobile on in winter. My home was at 8800’ , I said (was) as a forest fire destroyed our home garage and all contents leaving only memories and ashes. Lost my 83 XR200, and my old 69 Yamaha 175 enduro, 3 ATVs and 2 collector cars. On subject, we’re finally rebuilding things more fun than our home. purchased a 1985 XR200 basket case, have finally found a ‘83 XL250 for engine swap.I chose the 250 over going to a 200 2 valve model as the 250 has such an improved engine, speaking of the components specifically the cam drive, valves which are stronger in multiples than the 200 has. I said that, after looking back on my original XR, and acknowledging I never had a single problem with the cam drive or any other system. That original bike never went back to the dealer or any other servicing company, I changed oil, checked valve adjustments and replaced a few spark plugs and 4 sets of tires/ tubes in the aproximately 37 years I owned the bike. The re- engined Honda will take me on many new adventures, as I explore my new home now in New Mexico mountains. At my time in life, I happily traded speed for dependability and new vistas. [/QUOTE]
