The part number for the 25x47x7 grease seal at bikebandit.com is 5086739.

When checking spoke tension and adjusting be careful not to over tighten or tighten out of sequence.

I mentioned this in another post but be sure to route and properly clamp the spark plug wire. Mine worked loose from the clamp on the cooling fins on the back of the engine and got badly burned on the pipe. It melted the insulator and the protective plastic heat sheild in a relatively short period. (10-15 min.)

Front Caliper bolt
BCrider, Welcome to China Riders!
The only question I can answer is about the front caliper bolt. Before I joined this sight I found out the hard way about loctiting bolts.. When I lost a front caliper bolt, I just went to my local hardware shop and matched up the remaining bolt. Added lock washers, Loctited both bolts and its been fine since. What brand 200-GY do you have anyway? New England Trails!!!! |

Battery Box
My battery box (all steel construction) came apart yesterday. I finally realized something was wrong when I pulled into the gas station and saw my battery swinging in the wind with the cage still bolted around it. The two parts that bolts to the frame were still loc-tited and bolted to the frame. It appears they only tac-weld the cage and the tac-welds all broke after 500miles of riding. So, I had to go buy some JB weld and I still have it clamped and curing now. So, I'll let you know if it holds up or not. May want to check yours if you have this type.

the battery box and frame/seat rail just for this reason. I've since found a web strap that I plan to install one day.

The GY-5's battery box is metal and squished in between the engine, seat, tank and frame. I figure even if it works loose it isn't going anywhere.

In reference to the swingarm grease fitting:
Also, I forgot to mention Dad and I removed the stock grease fitting for the swingarm axle and put in a new "standard" fitting. We then proceeded to pump and pump and pump and pump grease about 14-16 pumps until it was full. You guys may want to look into this. We couldn't get the grease gun to hook up to the stock fitting. It was too small and short. Ride quality seems to be a bit better since. Jason

You may want to reinforce the mounting holes on your side covers before installing them. I have pulled through on both the mounting holes and the holes are now the size of the mounting screw heads at both bottom locations. Not sure how to fix it at this point, but some fiberglass reinforcement on the backside could have maybe prevented this.

If any of you guys decide to attach a case to your rear rack, keep an eye on the welds and stress points. Mine finally bit the dust after 3100miles. I know I was probably riding too hard with too much in the case most of the time, but that's just how it is Dad decided not to bother welding it again since it just broke in a different location this second time. He said he'll make a rack support for the new rack when I get it, that will bolt right to the frame under the center of the fender.

Also, there seems to be a lot of chatter coming from the top end of the motor. Has anyone had to adjust the valves when it was new? Also, I asked this in another thread, but has anyone had any oil leaks when it is new? I thought it looked like it was coming from around the exhaust header, but it may be coming from the valve cover. Has anyone had to tighten the valve cover?
