Looking for help.
I have just purchased a Honda TLM 200. not sure of year model. What year did they make the first mono shock. Is there any other way of finding out the exact year model. Is there any special 2 stroke oil to use, Thanks Scooter

Hi Scooter

have you got the propeller hat too???

I'm not sure about the first year Honda made TLM, but I think it was about 1987. Surprisingly your local Honda dealer will know - if you push them a little. Have a look here for a pic http://www.ataq.qc.ca/galerie/index.php ... da/&page=1

I like to use a premium unleaded fuel (BP ultimate works for me) mixed with a synthetic 2-stroke oil. I have been using Bel Ray and more recently Castrol. I have been using this at about 50:1 in my aircooled trials bikes, 30:1 in my aircooled MXers and 80:1 in the kids modern trials bikes.
