Hi does any one know if you can convert a ty125 in to 175 or bigger. Looking at the engines they seem the same size. The 125 just seems under powered. Thanks

Does anyone know of a vendor that sells a lower mudguard replacement for the ty250 twinshock? The airbox/mudguard assembly has been removed from mine to use a pod filter and just has a old mx fender pieced in. it works but is pretty crappy looking.

Can anyone help? The online parts diagrams that are available on the web are all based on TY350 (US). whilst 99% of parts are the same i'm struggling with the internal fork bushes. On the parts diagram it only shows the lower bush (part number 30X-23125-00-00) all the mono forks i've ever stripped have had another smaller bush which is located slightly higher on the inner fork - looking for a part number so I can order some. Cheers

Hi! can anyone help me with the correct colour code for the ty white paint! so i can get some mixed for my project! cheers for any help

Group, So my forks bottomed out a couple of times in the Trial this past weekend. I'm assuming the springs are old and a little weak. Planning to put some spacers in. Do I: Put in a couple of 1/16" washers or put in a 1" plug? What I'm asking is how much shimming do you do? Second part would be how do you know when you have shimmed enough? Thanks in advance. Alan

Hi, just joined the forum after buying a TY175 (which has turned out to be a bit of a lemon!!) haven't helped by dropping the bike while pushing it up the ramp into my transit. the gear lever has smashed the generator cover!! are they like the proverbial hens teeth, can they be repaired. I did see a bike on ebay a few weeks back which appeared to have a carbonfibre cover just over the round section of the casing? any help would be greatly appreciated. Chris

Hi there, has anyone tryed a Yz 125 Clutchcase on a TY 175 or a Yz 250 Clutchcase on a TY 250.It must be the aircooled yz modell from 1976-1978.They look nice,because they have no oilpumpcover.Anyone got an idea. Chrs:Mike

Hello again does any one know where to get spokes soI can rebuild my pinky front wheel I have tried the dealers but not only are they over

Top quality tank stickers for the Pinky Yams are finally ready at a company called MXM!! There have been various delays along the way. Unfortunately the original bloke I was dealing with, Frank Thornton, retired, setting the whole process back another few months! I only stuck with them because I know that they are top quality and actually stay on the tanks for years - I've used several over the years for old motocross bikes. The only differences from stock are that the silver is actually a pale silver/grey and they have perforated mine with small holes so they don't bubble (this is optional). They are also significantly thicker. I supplied a pattern of the sides …

Hi Does anyone know where I can buy a full set of front and rear Z spokes plus nipples? Thanks in advance

Hi! Just pick up a TY250. it has Boge orca shocks on it #125-377 they seem mighty stiff! I can't find a application guide on the web. Anyone know much about these?

I recently purchased a set of Sammy Miller footrests for my TY175. As they mount lower than stock, the brake pedal now sits awkwardly high. I see no way of adjusting the pedal height nor does the Haynes manual discuss this. How have others dealt with this? Rig up an adjuster, heat and bend the pedal, other? Thanks, Mike Behrens

Hi guys, I've just got a TYZ 250 Scottish as a project bike and the fork seals are leaking, as well as lots of other things which need repairing. Could someone tell me how to change the seals please? I looked in the archives but could not see a description. Secondly, where can I get a service manual for the bike it is a 1996 or 7. Any help would be great. Thanks. Cheers Iain

A mates selling his TY250A i think its a 74 model (white/ yellow tank and has TY embossed on the engine case) its bloody light and pulls very well i was wondering as this being the 1st or 2nd model TY250 that Yamaha produced was it competitive back in the day when pitched against Sherpas, Ossa MARS,Cotas etc! and would it be any good now?
