With all the info in this forum I've started restoring my dad's 200..
I didn't take any true before pics but will post a couple...
I need to make a chain cover and am looking dimensions or a pattern...
I also want to make a seat back and need dimensions
I'm about to order decals from Barrie.

Hi Guys,
I can't offer a pattern because I don't make em, but I do have new chain guards available if you need to or would rather go that route. They are $65.

I'm looking for a picture of the bracket and clamp for the choke cable, near the carb.
The one we had on it worked fine but was not original.
Also looking for the dimensions of a seat back. They look to be about 4x12.
