Works well for a ill while, then the torsion spring seems to unwind & kick starter won't return to the top. Suggestions? Dean@learntoride.org

As anyone tried a DT cylinder on a TY175? I have an early DT jug and I'm thinking of using it. I did find that the exhust port is 2mm higher in the DT then the stock TY cylinder. And that the intake port is 3mm wider as well. Also the DT cylinder head also has a smaller compression chamber in it, but will need the fins cut down to work.

I ordered one of these along with and SM front pipe for my TY175 and they arrived yesterday. The holes don't line up quite correctly with the studs out of the head on the front pipe and will require a bit of modification which is annoying but as the bike is 25 years old to be expected. What I was surprised about is that the WES silencer/mid box does not have a hole in the main mounting bracket. Has anyone else fitted one of these? Are you meant to drill it yourself or have I been sent a duff one? Cheers Dave

Is anyone using the DEP rear muffler for the TY175? If so 2 questions: 1) Is it fairly quiet? 2) Does it have a recess for an O-ring where the pipe pushes into the standard TY mid-box to ensure a good seal? (like the standard TY175 rear muffler has) cheers

Undertaking a full resto of 1974 Ty250a and need an up damaged left hand crankcase cover due to chain damage - appreciate these are hard to find but any help will be appreciated - many thanks

I just finished the gear shifter mod which I purchased from TYtrials: http://www.tytrials.co.uk/trailandtrialsuk/prod_215437-1617-19-Shifter-Repair-Kit-TY125-TY175.html But now it is very stiff and difficult to shift and more worrisome is that it will not shift up past first gear. I can select neutral and first only. I followed kit's instructions and changed nothing else relating to this. Please let me know your thoughts on this. Thanks

I went out practicing today and after a couple of hours I occasionally felt a rumble our unbalance in the engine. It wasn't constant and only at low revs. I'll have a look during the week, but in the mean time any ideas where to look?

Hi Guys, Anybody got a genuine workshop manual for a 85 TYR ? Cheers Mark

Anybody have the chain fall off and break the rear case boss that the mag cover screws onto? Am I better off cutting off that lug on the left center case before that happens ? Or is a case saver plate the way to go? Thanks, Jeff

Hi, im going to rebuild my ty250 top end, i was just wondering what the recommended brand of piston etc is? Also, my rear shock seems to have become very loose, i think the gas has blown out because i' am no longer getting any feedback from the adjustment, i was wondering what should i do? I assume i need to send it to a shop to have it 're-gased' so to speak, and a shock service... Anyone got any idea what that would cost? Cheers ?

I ride beta rev 3 right now, but saw an old kawasaki 175 enduro bike the other day at a friends house, and ever since I have been wondering if its even possible to get a TY and make it a dual purpose bike? Something I could ride to work, and still play in the woods. I assume not, but wanted someone to help get it out of my head. PS. I realize its possible to put a light and turn signals on any bike, but I'm wondering if it's a legitimate option. Example, there is now way I would ride my rev 3 on the road as a way to commute and enjoy the ride.

hi, changed oil seal behind front sprocket, wondering if anyone has made a cover to protect the seal from damage.

Just wondering what everyone is using for a rear tire on there TY250a.I,ve read that the IRC tubeless,which is what I wanted to use, will not stay on the bead very well.How about the IRC tube type?

Hi all, have some surplus ty80 forks and yokes for swaps, forks are in general good condition with minimal pitting to chromes, I gave cleaned the fork leg back to bare metal as can see in the pic with a before and after shot then gave a quick blast of silver., and yokes could do with some tlc. Willing to swap them for a footrest kit and rear brake lever.

hi,my ty175 is leaking oil from behind the front sprocket,been on tytrials uk ,and ordered output shaft collar and a new oil seal,is it just a matter of pulling the old shaft out and removing the oil seal and replacing ,thanks.

Looking for some help on a front tyre. I have been looking at the Michelin X light front tyre and was wondering if anybody has tried one (on a TY175), just wanted to know any good or bad points. Cheers for any advice.
