I'm glad about how it turned out, and for what it's worth, I'm proud of your accomplishment!

As for the 190 to Postie swap, you'll have to drill the frame to mount it, and the 190 is a bit more...

Why not just get a stator cover that has the spacing for a more conventional pickup?

Only thing I would trust would be a GPX for that kind of work, but the suspension would need to be completely reworked. Some might say Orion, but the owner strikes me as a bit too defensive, and...

Having owned (and ridden) both types overseas, I think I can answer this. For the Wave clones, they're too slow and the frames are weak. For the CG, they're not as slow, but still too slow, plus...

That's 110% as American as CSC. They don't have unique designs, they just charge 2x as much as the nearest competitor, and even their parts are 2-3x as expensive as Honda originals. There's nothing...

That will also greatly multiply the torque, it might make him more prone to whisky throttle/unintentional wheelies.

Torque thrives on small throttle openings. It'll hurt top end, but it's not like it'll lose so much torque it won't be able to take off. They use throttle stops on CRF50s, but that would probably be...

That's an XR200, not 250. Completely different motors, but technically the motor you have would be a bolt-in.

The carb is most likely stock, the bike looks pretty stock overall.

Megadan is correct in everything he said. You won't get the lever on the engine to move in a way that disengages the clutch, because the amount you can move it now is just free play.
