Got my IT restored and running to my standards. Just thought I'd add a few pictures.

It does look nice and I agree it's one of my all time favorite woods bikes. I've owned my '86 since it was new and my son still rides it today.

It looks like you went with an older model year rear fender, just curious as to why?

Is that an '84 model?
It's interesting that on the 200 the chain drive is on the right side of the bike, and on the 490 like mine the chain is on the left.
Totally agree that for a tight woods track this bike should be killer like a surgeon's scalpel, the 490 is a bit much for that - like bringing a howitzer to a knife fight.....

Good observation. The previous owner put the different rear fender on it. Thus it also has a different tail light.

I know. Now that I have it all fixed up I'm afraid to get it dirty. But that's what a garden hose is for.

It's a 1985 200. I bought it because I bought 50 acres in Wisconsin last September. There's ATV trails going all over the property. This bike will be perfect for it. A 465 or 490 would be way too much.
