nice video...where did you get the poly bushings at?

[@gideonthomas7953]

Yo bro I love these vids man get these things out man

[@11GalleryATV]

I'm working on it as we speak! The motor is taking way longer than I expected (hard to find a couple little pieces that are no longer available) but it is turning out pretty badass! Spoiler ... the motor is no longer factory black ...

[@stevenvoepel6495]

Excellent videos you have done, which leads me to asking you about the two identical o-rings you mentioned in part 13 that are no longer manufactured, but you found on Amazon. One is on the axle by the sprocket and the second o-ring that goes into the brake rotor holder. On the assembly drawings this is shown as a 35x1.7mm. For what I have found, no one makes a 1.7mm, so I assume you used the 1.5mm? Also, is the 35mm the OD measurement for Honda? Thanks so much for all the detail work. It has helped me a tremendous amount in bringing up my 1986 200x from high school back up to almost new.

[@11GalleryATV]

I just looked up my Amazon order and it looks like I actually bought 2 sizes of 35mm but I don't remember which one actually fit ... Here are the 2 that I purchased: amzn.to/444QBNr amzn.to/3U8deMb

[@stevenvoepel6495]

@@11GalleryATV Wow, thanks for quick reply. I think I'll try the 1.5mm.

[@robertnewcomer89]

Howdy! Just picked up an 84 200X and am restoring. Your videos are a great instructional tool. You've done some great improv too like the CRF450R rear master cylinder. Where did you find the delron bushings for the swingarm? I didn't see a reference to them in your parts & tools list? Thanks a bunch.

[@11GalleryATV]

I found them on eBay but that was a long time ago and I haven't seen them lately. I think a guy from one of the 200x Facebook groups still does them ... this guy had them - facebook.com/groups/120948345007991/user/100005251080552/ from the "Honda ATC 200X-350X Connection" Facebook group

@@11GalleryATV Thanks for the lead. Makes it so much easier than all those pieces / parts

[@demetrimicroutscos5904]

Coming out bad ass bro ! I got the red gaffer lines on my 85. I Shoulda got the blue lol

[@11GalleryATV]

I almost got the red too! But thought there was already a lot of red so I went with the blue ...

[@ATCREVOLUTION]

I just ordered Galfer blue F&R lines for my 86 with red fittings and blue banjo bolts. I been wanting these lines since I got my 86, I never thought to get on Galfers website. Kinda makes sense being that they build them to order. A set would pop up on about once a year it seemed and I just never moved fast enough to get them when they would be on eBay. I’m glad I got them from Galfer’s site because I was able to pick the colors of everything. Did you notice a difference in the way the brakes feel between the OEM lines and the Galfer?

[@11GalleryATV]

@@ATCREVOLUTION Hells yeah! That was the best part ... getting to build your own colors (I just went traditional). You probably won't notice any difference in braking (unless your stock setup was damaged or something). Aftermarket brake lines are basically just cosmetic, last longer, easier to route, easier to bleed, etc and just plain look badass!

[@ATCREVOLUTION]

@@11GalleryATV I think my OEM lines have about had it. The rear is the worst, there’s some minor swelling that just started when I hit the pedal so I should have a little bit better feeling brake pedal with the new lines.

[@demetrimicroutscos5904]

@@ATCREVOLUTION I can tell the difference. They feel more responsive for sure. But, then again, I rebuilt the calipers, put new pads on and a rear rotor also. So it may be a placebo affect but at the end of the day, I'm totally happy with them.

[@Noslo_559]

Looking amazing so far.

[@11GalleryATV]

Thanks! I can't wait to rip it!

[@ATCREVOLUTION]

I just put that same exact rear brake caliper assembly on my 86 last night. I thought I was just buying the block of plate for the price so I was surprised when I opened the box. The new caliper bracket did not line up with the brake stay so I just used my OEM bracket to mount the new stuff too. Love the Galfer brake lines, I’ve been waiting for a set to become available to put on mine for months. Maybe I should contact Galfer about some lines? That Chinese caliper assembly works great on mine after swapping over the bracket. I’m going to get a rebuild for the OEM caliper for back up though. I use blue Loc Tite on my axle lock nuts and they still work loose eventually after some hard rides, might be good practice to check them over kinda often. 👍 Sick build man

[@11GalleryATV]

I bought my Galfer lines straight from Galfer ... Front: galferusa.com/product/honda-1986-atc-200x-front-lines-fk003d898-1 and rear: galferusa.com/product/honda-1986-atc-200x-rear-lines-fk003d898r

[@ATCREVOLUTION]

@@11GalleryATV thanks for the info man! I got my lines ordered today straight from Galfer 👍. Great video too BTW, nice to see a second gen 200x coming together like that. I might have to find a bearing carrier like you have as well if you can still buy them?

[@11GalleryATV]

@@ATCREVOLUTION Rad Mfg had a falling out where one of the employees went rogue and started producing bad parts and not sending thing to people after they had paid. I got my carriers right before that happened but I still never got my my brake caliper holder back or a new one and I had to buy another one to continue my build. You may want to give them a call or email to check on the current status and before you send any money to them.

[@danjim7056]

Heck yes! I've been waiting for this update. Edit: no worries on the wait for the upload. Shipping happens, as well as life in general.

[@christopheravery5808]

It’s been a while since I’ve been over here, I apologize for that. I just caught up on this project and it’s coming along VERY nicely man. You do really really good work. I had a few “life situations” happen, but my daughter and I should FINALLY have our projects started soon. Right now we have 3 blasters to build, 2 for my daughter’s XC Racing, and I think I’m going to do a YZ85 blaster hybrid for the 3rd one for my youngest daughter to ride. I also have a 400EX as well that I’m hoping to do a 440 Nationals build with XC suspension, and then I have a Polaris Magnum 4x4 that I’m going to build for my mother as the “ultimate exploration machine”. I had to get rid of my 200X, it was beyond what I’m ready for because the frame was cracked in an odd spot and I didn’t feel comfortable doing a build on something that might be unsafe to ride. BUT, I have a buddy who just so happens to have an ‘86 or ‘87 Tecate 3, I don’t know exactly what year but it has the narrow front end so it’s not an ‘84/‘85. It was his dad’s machine originally and my friend has had it for almost a decade sitting in a shed and it hasn’t moved, I didn’t even know he had it until 2 weeks ago. He offered it to me and said it’s not going anywhere, so whenever I’m ready I’m going to pick that up for a super cool build.

[@duckworthatvandmxadventure6601]

Awesome 👌. Love me some Tecate 3's

We're did you get your Rad carrier from I've been looking on their site and they are out of stock.I can't find any used oem carriers cheaper than what Rad sells new ones for.Awsome build by the way.

[@11GalleryATV]

I got it directly from RAD MFG before they had a fallout within their company. I got burned for my brake stay though, which they were going to use to create the billet one from, but that's a different story ...

[@jodyhutcheson9891]

You wouldn't believe the amount of people that ask "why do you use so much loctite?" So my bike doesn't rattle apart is my answer!!! I use red loctite tho just not very much on bolts I plan to take out again.

[@seankennedy1181]

Hey man what is the diameter of the delving bushing you used to replace the oem setup ?

[@11GalleryATV]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't really know the diameter of the Delrin Bushings because they are installed, but I can tell you that the swingarm openings where the bushings go are 26mm and the bearings that came out of the swingarm are also 26mm, soooooo, I would also assume the Delrin Bushings are 26mm.

[@stephencharlton5476]

Wondering on the motion pro axle wrench axle lock jam nuts... Is that a 45.5 tool model 08-0479. Will this one fit ? Want to make sure I buy the right one to fit

[@11GalleryATV]

yessir! This is the 45.5 open ended wrench from the 08-0479 set. The closed ended wrench from the same set is a 56 mm.

[@victormills7064]

Hey do you still have one of those Rad 200x billet carriers ? Could you inform me how to get the torque wrench you use.

[@11GalleryATV]

I sold the other billet carrier on eBay awhile ago ... and both the torque wrenches are linked in the description ... Lexivon 1/2 inch and 1/4 inch both

[@samuelmcilwain1441]

Awesome!!!!

[@CanadianHuskyLover]

you should be able to loosen the carrier and pivot it enuff so the break caliper stay should come away from the swingarm enuff to torque the bolt 🤟

Where is part 14. It’s been 3 weeks. Everything ok? Getting worried.

[@11GalleryATV]

Part 14 is coming very soon! It is being shot and edited as we speak! It is taking way longer than I planned ...
