New here, Hello all!

Early bikes had the nickel frame thru about 03'. 2004+ bikes had the silver powder coat frame. Yours sure looks like a 99' with the counter balance engine, that fuel tank and nickel frame. Have fun with it!

Just pulled the numbers, it's kind of funny. That I am learning about these, when I should of learned BEFORE I bought it. So far I have found out it is a 98 250cc frame with a 99 EC200 motor. The extra motor say's EC20 and the one in the bike say's EC200-99.

Just pulled the master cylinder apart, I can't seem to figure out what is suppose to push the plunger in to activate the brakes. Is it mounted on the lever it's self? or is it an other piece. The brake lever has a screw with a nut on it inline with the plunger. Hi Ho Hi Ho Learn as I go......haha

All frames were nickle up to 05

pretty sure all 200s use the 250/300 frame of their era which would explain the 250 frame no.
Most brake levers have an adjustable screw which the head activates the plunger,the screw adjusts the lever freeplay.based on your picture im guessing the thread in your lever is stuffed and someone has drilled it out and put a bolt right through.
You can either rebuild master cyl and install a new lever or fit a new m/c which will prob come with new lever
