Yesterday, I installed the oil pump on the GT200, having primed and bench tested it with an electric drill. It's delivering oil, so it's now in place and synch'd with the throttle slide/position as per the manual.



Today, metail bashing. Andy,my neighbour has acetylene so we heated and spent longer than I thought trying to figure how to shape the kink I needed to clear the exhaust flange bolt on both sides.
Got there in the end.



Two kinky upper front mounts in etch ready for a splash of satin black.

10 mile shakedown on the R5.  Longest so far.  Scary thinking about who exactly assembled this thing when you're on the stick.

Took a little trail ride with a friend in Gifford Pinchot national forest, it was a great day!



Mt. Adams behind me, Rainier, St. Helens and Hood all visible from where we were parked at the base of a rock tower called Jumbo. We did 30 miles and met a bunch of cool dirt bikers, bicyclists and a couple of hikers. Lots of late-model KTMs and Husqvarnas, a couple of CRFs and Yamahas. A twenty-something with an e-start KTM 300 asked me: "do you have to kick-start that every time?"!
Funny how many riders of electric-start, fuel-infected bikes commented on what a great bike my old XR200, ridden by my pal Ron, was!
Starting today with Ibuprofen. Won't help the mosquito bites or the sunburnt neck...

Pulled the Derbi out of the back yard shed. Poor little guy has been sitting
there for over two years.
Checked the air filter = perfect condition.
Put in a battery from the TT-R125L.
Squirt a wee bit of Motul800 down the spark plug hole and cycle the piston.
Clutch plates stuck, so put in high gear and push back and forth. fixed.
lift the choke lever, Turn on the key and three kicks later....ring_ding_ding.
:vroom: :clap:
Good things happen from time to time.
Now that I know it runs fine, guess I should change all the fluids.
Cheers, Jeff

Never heard of that Derbi model. Looks fun.
