New from Utah!
Hi all! Pretty excited I found this forum, because I don't have any info on the bike I just got, and there seems to be some great people on here that help out! I just picked a
Wildfire WFG-200LDB for $50 from a yard sale that only has 700 miles on it!!Looks like it has been sitting for some time, but the carb looks great and seems like it just needs some TLC. Problem is, I can't find anything on these bike! No user manuals, repair guides, nothing. Here's what I need to know, and hope someone can help out: What spark plug it takes, What spark plug wire it takes...where that wire goes , what size battery... and where that battery goes (pretty sure the bracket has been broke), What type of oil is recommended, any info on user manuals or repair guides, and a wire schematic maybe? A couple wires have been cut, and I would like to know what they are for without stripping all the wire harnesses back. Lastly, any info on interchangeable parts with other manufactures would be great! Sorry if this has been covered, but everything I searched for was from 2008-2010 and all the sites are now closed that were used as references. Thanks in advance for all the help...pretty excited to get this thing up and running with little cost...hopefully |

Sounds like a find! You need to get some pictures up, both because it will help us identify/troubleshoot and we also love seeing a new bike.

Welcome! Love your screen name; that was one of my favourite movies as a kid.

That's my favourite setup; CG pushrod motor and a frame inspired by the early '80's Honda XR200 (not the R version).

. I really am exited to see this thing come together. It's definitely seen better days, but for $50 can't really complain or expect too much haha.
