The rear shock is maybe 10.5-11 inches not real long.

I will send you the pegs and the kill switch. It is just a kind switch. No start function. I think your carb is different. This one bolts to the manifold. You can probably rebuild the carb.

Cool switch will work

Shock not sure I'll check tonight after work.

katoranger · 06-10-2009, 01:31 PM

Do you just want the pegs or the whole piece that bolts to the bottom of the engine? If just pegs I will remove them.

Maybe tomorrow night I can go see the progress on the xrs here and glean some parts.

Be easier to send just the pegs pins and springs......But if You wanna get rid of the whole chunk I'm game......If You see any red plastics on those bikes snag em

Heck white even I can paint those. Also the rear brake rod and hub...Hmmm Also the rear chain adjusters..Umm thorttle....And both sides on perches and levers....Ummmm number plate, I can paint that no biggie. Maybe a kickstart lever that does not sqeak. And a muffler heat guard mines all bent to snot and cracked in one place.
Lemme think.......Maybe the true pegs off those bikes would be better, And rear brake pedel. Oh and a rear shock that's not leaking

Wow Hard tp think of all this at work...

AZ200cc · 06-10-2009, 02:17 PM

I got it!!!! If You snap some shots of the bikes I will draw a circle on each part I need

Also the tank did come out orange :x Gotta repaint tonight with new color....Oh well it will be smooth with all these coats on it 8) Never paint at night

katoranger · 06-10-2009, 03:26 PM

I know that no plastics are available. Maybe a shock and pegs, brake rod.

Allen

TeamCheap · 06-10-2009, 03:41 PM

Just buy it all you wont be sorry ...I'm not for buying all the stuff I bought from KATO.

Thanks again KATO...... I got the huge mammoth box tuesday and the wife was a bit peeved but I'm still alive so its all good.

I havnt even dragged it out to the garage yet since I was whipped after work yesturday.

AZ200cc · 06-10-2009, 04:27 PM

If kato could ship both bikes I would

Lotta boxes though

katoranger · 06-10-2009, 05:55 PM

AZ. Don't worry. No mammoth boxes of parts will be coming your way anytime soon. I think I can fill a flat rate priority mail box though.

Allen

AZ200cc · 06-10-2009, 06:49 PM

Parts is parts and gets me going in the right direction

....Maybe the frame tonight

katoranger · 06-10-2009, 07:12 PM

The good news is that honda made lots of xr80s. Remember that the 100 uses most of the same parts. Also the brakes are a common fit among most of the smaller hondas too.

Ebay is your friend. Also what craigslist as a parts bike may appear.

Allen

AZ200cc · 06-10-2009, 07:24 PM

The bikes are identical from the 90's through to 2000. All the same stuff. I found a lot of it already but I wanted to wait until You could tell me what You had. After that Bike bandit is where I'll be for a week or two

8O

katoranger · 06-10-2009, 09:30 PM

I would look on ebay for good used stuff.

I can tell you that there will be no plastic parts, wheels, cables, carb, for sure. All that will be used.

Allen

AZ200cc · 06-10-2009, 11:37 PM

The mainparts holdingme up right now, Are the Kill switch, brake rod, The foot pegs, And the rear adjusters, fedners will be the last thing this bike see's so they're not at the top of my list.

And boy what a mess I made tonight.....I was reeady to change the color of the tank

....So I sanded it and got all my stuff ready 8) . I grabbed my can of auto prep to clean the tank and get off all the oils :wink: .....Well stupid me did not think that the cheap-o paint I bought had not set up harldy AT ALL 8O .
And it fricken started to melt off the paint but I did not notice it.....Well the primer started to go on and it was marbeling :? Hmmm...OH CRAP 8O
So two hours of wiping wire brushing and sanding later....It has a super ooober thick coat of spot filler primer on it. I had to get all the swirl marks off and that was all I had. So I screwed up and now the tank will look ok maybe...But will never look as good as I wanted :( :x
DUMB MISTAKE!

AZ200cc · 06-11-2009, 04:32 PM

OK this is how I spent a little of last night and this morning

And got it kinda smooth :?

And here is the first coat :roll:

Next update today, The seat should be done, And the frame and motor and exhaust should be done.....We work fast in Arizona
