    I just thought that I would share the fantastic customer service I have received from Sammy Miller. I have a 1974 TY 250 which I am doing up and it requires a new seat (the existing metal pan is 100% rust.) I ordered a new one from Sammy Miller’s which when it arrived did not fit as it is for the later models which do not have a fiberglass seat surround. However, it was not a million miles out and I was sure that if I took it to bits I could modifiy it by taking off the lip and repositioning the holes. First though thought I would talk to them to see if they had a different seat. They didn’t but sent me a blank seat base which I then modified and drilled the holes and…

  9. I want to get a 350 mono engine, but where can I find one in the UK? I don't want to buy a modern bike, because they are rubbish, and I know the 250 is normally considered smoother and easier to ride, I've just wanted a 350 for years. I've got the info for Ellastone offroad and I'll give them a ring sometime, but is there anywhere else to considor?

    I have several 1975+- TY175. One is a fun original vintage bike. One is a beatup (but top shape mechanically with 250 tubes, wide pegs etc) buddy bike to teach kids to ride on. This one suddenly died and lost spark. This has been a recurring problem with all of mine. Stators seems susceptible to heat problems. Is this common? SO, before I start chasing the gremlins again, I'd like to consider changing to solid state ignition. I know B&J has a kit but its pretty expensive for the value of these bikes. Are there any later Yamaha solid state ignitions that will bolt in with minor modifications only? (i.e dremel tool, not NC machining) I am interested in low end, sm…
