Hello people! i need some desperate help....i'm stripping my bike to change the crank shaft oil seals, i think that is what is wrong with it anyway??? (it's oiling up in the cylinder and killing spark plugs!) i can't get the flywheel off, do i need a special tool and if yes where do i get one! any advice would be of great assistance! the sooner it is fixed the sooner i can ride again!!!! cheers james.

If you had a trials bike with this number 82 09143 stamped on the head stock in quite small numbers , is it familiar or recognisable to anyone here ?.....Pitley ?

A TY175 in bits was delivered today,what do I do with it ? Firstly I was really taken with that lovely 200 Majesty at the Classic dirt bike show at Malvern.How much better is the Majesty frame than the standard one ? As the bike I have just bought is totally stripped,(down to hubs and spokes !) I can go in any direction when I build it.Who does the 200 big bore conversion and is it worth it ? I spoke to Craig Mawlem at the last Bath classic trial re one of his frame kits to do my other 250,same again I wonder how much better they are than the standard one,I really like my standard one - cant believe how well it steers and grips,sorry…

I know its not a trials bike, but my 5 year old has got to start somewhere!!! anyway, got hold of it for free, needs a few bit & bobs, but my main problem is that the kickstart wont engage properly. 9/10 times it will just fly straight round without grabbing. if you tip the bike to the side, it sometimes engages, & the bike will start. any ideas anyone???

Excuse my total ignorance of Yams! I may have a look at a pinky thats for sale locally. Can anyone tell me how to date the bike, i dont think seller has a clue, maybe frame numbers or the like? Did pinkys ever have discs as standard? if so from what year? (this one doesnt) thanks S.M.

hey all im intrested in buying a yamaha majest, any idea how much i should be paying for the one thats ready to trial. thanks jack

Hi, Was wondering if anyone knew of places to get spares for a ty250 mono shock, think its about an 88' model. cheers.

Hi, I have a frame that shoud be a Whitehawk. Unfortunatly it had no footpeg. I am wondering if the footpeg are specific to this model or if it came from something more popular ? Itriyer the bultaco ones, but it did not fit. Ragards

Whats happened to Craig I have tried http://www.yamaha-majesty.com/ but it won't come up anymore. I see he was selling his stuff on Ebay, has he stopped trading?

Does anyone know if its worth fitting a boost bottle to a TY175 and is it possible to fabricate one.Does anyone know of a suitable Yamaha inlet manifold with the branch fitting that could be used in the event I attempt to go ahead with it. Regards.

A early Yamaha framed Majesty 250 went on ebay tonight for

Just a quick question. Do all Ty 250 twinshocks have the same left side mag cover. ? Some photos that I have seen have a round cover with a center bump like a TY1 75. Other photos show a smooth cover that runs back to cover the counter shaft sprocket. Thanks for your time.

My Majesty 250 is finally ready to ride. Was put together over the past few months from a NOS 1981 frame kit. As fas as I can tell there are now three 250/320 Majestys in Australia. Photos on the Trials Australia website. http://www.trials.com.au/BB2/viewtopic.php?t=2420 David

I have an '89 TY 250 mono. I bought this bike with the intention of starting trials. I stripped it down, resprayed, replaced all shock linkage bushes, fork springs, new rear wheel, C&S, put on replacement one-peice tank/seat unit, and numerous other bits (receipts for all), and used it TWICE! Its a really nice bike, but I can't help thinking I'm better suited to pottering about green-laning. Would'nt mind a Scorpa Long-Ride (any good for green-laning?) So whats my TY worth? Thanks for any suggestions.

Help! I have just bought a TY250R and the clutch basket has one of the edger pieces snapped off (the parts the plates slide through). Is this useable? ive just seen some damaged clutch baskets (the same) on ebay for sale. does the damage matter? If i nned to replace it does anyone have one to sell? Anyone that has one to sell me please get in touch, darrelltaylor01@ntlworld.com

does anyone know tyre pressures for ty 80?, also does anyone know what oil should be in engine?

Has anyone got an old TYZ mudguard with the Hamilton full length decal fitted that they don't want and would like to sell, or alternatively, would be willing to take a good photo of and e-mail it to me. I thought I had one spare myself but it must have been sold on one of my earlier bikes. These aren't available anymore and I'd like to get another made. We've had one go but it's not quite right so need an original pattern, or good photo of, to work from. Or, if anyone has a bike with one fitted and isn't really bothered whether they have the decal on their bike or not, I'd be happy to buy it off you for the cost of a replacement new guard. Picture attached of the decal…

HI I have owned a yamaha ty175 for about 20 years the date of registration was May 1984 I was trying to find out if the bike is near to the end of the production run, chassis no:525222625 or did they carry on later than 1984 ? Cheers Matty

Hi, I am toying with the idea of converting my Yamaha Pinky to twinshock. The main reason is so that I can ride some neighbouring club trials in twinshock class. Our club HEREFORDSHIRE CLASSIC TRIALS CLUB runs an a/c mono class but the neighbours dont. Is there anyone out there who has done the same, and if so is it much hassle. I ask because the swingarm doesn't have a lot of meat in it, unlike a box section as on a TLM 200, a mate of mine converted his to twinshock in no time. Thanks.
