I got it tore down and primed. Man this bike needs every bearing it has on it. Can't beleive that a arm bearings are 50.00 per arm. Expensive!

Thanks Ajm! I am going to start to tear it down tomorrow and replace all wheel bearings, axle bearings, rebuld calipers and paint it. Decided to go with gold frame and blue body with a WV Mountaineers theme. Going to put new main bearings in and new top end bored over about 60. Wish me luck!

It lives! Ended up being a dirty magneto that needed some attention. Man I am going to have to do some work to this engine case has a couple stripped out threads and some broken bolt walls. Not to mention it smokes like a freight train.

I just read something about a stator. Don't know what that is. Could that be the culprit?

I am getting a blue spark but mabey the spark isnt enough mabey a magneto problem?

Compression is good and i took the head off to check valves and cam sprocket but don't know much about them. Everything seemed tight, thought mabey out of time but how do you set the timing on one of these engines?

Ok i took the carb apart cleaned every little crevice and hole thouroughly. Adjusted the float down a little. I am getting blue fire from new spark plug but nothing. Pull the plug and its wet. how do I get a wet plug and fire but not even hit a lick?

Pics are in my gallery I found out that this is a 1986 suzuki LT230s. Now I just need to get it running. I think the carb is flooding it out. It hit on me a couple of times after I put new plug in it.

Here are some pics I took yesterday I'll get some closeups today. I am going to find the sereial # and call suzuki and find out if the motor even goes to the frame. But from what I looked up on internet last night it looks like an 86 or an 87 suzuki 230 quad sport. Well I tried to post pic and site wouldnt let me.

Hey guys hows it going? Im new to this site but not to motorcycles however I just bought a sport atv today and need to know how I find out what it is. It has a suzuki motor on it that I know but dont know if frame is or not. How do I find out. This is an older bike I would say but not for sure. Want to get it running but need to get some parts. Thanks for your input. Can post pictures if you want to see and mabey you will know.
