Paul,
Haven't heard whether you and Jason found a bike,
I can recommend the 1986 IT 200, as a matter of fact there is one on
ebay now in your neighborhood, (mercer) for a reasonable price,
get a bill of sale and you can get it plated, see ebay item
160424551284

even has a right side drive, and it IS two stroke.

Thanks to everyone for their input.  As you can imagine we are a bit partial to orange around here, but I wanted to make sure that we had our eyes totally open as to what machines would suit Jason, that is why is asked for the much appreciated input from you folks.

After watching the usual listing for used bikes, we finally found what sounded like a nice bike for a fair price and spoke with the seller Saturday night. We traveled to Columbus, Ohio on Sunday and picked up a very nice 2003 KTM 200 EXC. To say that Jason is happy would be an understatement. For me, I am just as happy as could be to have another son-in-law to ride with.

I am glad Jason ended up with a 200, Chad has a 200 KTM EXC and son-in-law Dave has a 250 4 stroke Yamaha, the old man in the bunch rides a 125 EXC and has a built in excuse for when the kids smoke him off......my bike is smaller....:)

Thanks
Paul
