Finally was able to pick it from and immediately started on trying to get it to start.

Let me preface this by saying I have never fully worked on a bike before but I am more mechanically inclined

Managed to get the carb out and that’s sitting and an ultra sonic cleaner right now but the little diaphragm thing with the spring was all dry and cracking, how would I go about getting a new one of that assuming I can manage to clean out the jets and don’t need any extra parts to get the carb working properly.

Tmr I’ll take the carb out of the cleaner and see if anything else needs to be replaced but for now it might just be that diaphragm looking thing.

Other than that tho she does have a seized petcock, need for new fuel lines and filter, bad tires, gotta get a new battery, and no key right now(the family I got it from are still trying to look for it so hopefully they can find it)

I am still looking into your suggestions from my last post but for now priority is to get her running

Joining the club

So I just recently was offered my grandpas 1987 tw200 that’s been sitting for a little bit.

I’m obviously going to take him up on that offer and it’s going to be my first bike I’ve owned.

Other than fixing it up and getting it clean does anyone have any suggestions on things to do/check/get for it?

I haven’t looked super far into the tw200 yet so figured this would be a good place to start, and if you guys want I can post pictures when I go and pick it up and then get it nice and cleaned.
