Anyone that has one to sell me please get in touch, darrelltaylor01@ntlworld.com

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

I am looking at putting new footpegs on my TY 250 D; '77 or '78 I think. Are there any that will bolt on or do I have to get into welding. Thanks in advance for any help / advice. Dave

I have just bought one of these fine machines and was wondering if the good Folk on this Forum would have any info to help in keeping it in Trialable condition? Specifically parts availability and manuals / handbooks (Photocopies or purchase) would be apreciated. Any advice on setting up and fuel oil mix ratio - basically anything! Don,t seem as common as the aircooled TY but looks a very well built bit of kit Looking to start competing this Spring (once the mud is out the way) in the North East Thanks in advance

Hi Guys. Just found this frame kit on a french site. Thought some of you might be intrested. The price in France is 2350-00 Euros. To take a look go to www.francetrialclassic.com. Regards Charlie.

Hi guys and gals. I have noticed that my recently acquired TY250 Pinky has 2 pipe nipples on the top which have currently got no pipes on them. There is what I assume to be a bleed/overflow pipe coming directly out of the bottom of the carb, but the others are pointing vertically and near to vertically on either side of the float. Should they have breather pipes on them? I am pretty sure they should have, because at the moment, crap can get down the open holes into the carb. If so, where to? Any ideas? Nick

I have just obtained a very good TY175 clutch and primary drive pinion,the clutch has what looks to be a letter B engraved on the end of one of the drive teeth but I can't see anything on the drive pinion to say it matches,letter B,they could do but is there a way of checking the required amount of clearance when fitted and how much should it be?also when I rebuilt the engine some time ago I noticed that the drive pinion only covers just over half way over the teeth on the clutch basket,is this normal? Regards Andy.

Hello fellow feet-up fans. I am in the throes of tidying up my TY250 Pinky and want to get rid of the wiring. I am never gonna use it for road use, so want to remove any unnecessary bits. Can anyone tell me where to get and where to connect a kill switch? I'm sure the "where to get" question is easy, but i have read good and bad articles about different manufacturers switches being of "dubious" quality. I have no idea about bike electrics, so am lost as to which bits are needed and which are not. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ta.

Hi folks, Have just bought what I think is a TY125; frame/engine no. is 13E 000274. Can anyone tell me what year this makes the bike, and how many of this model were produced etc. Thanks guys - any info. appreciated, Eddie.

I am trying to find a rear tyre for my sons big wheel ty80, it must be a proper block tread trials tyre . the tyre appears to be a 3.00 x 18 or 3.50 x 18, If someone knows the original tyre fitment even better Thanks.

Could someone who has restored a older TY and or has had to respray wheel hubs, let me in on what is the best colour grey to match existing hubs and where to buy in the uk ie. Halfords etc. I need some sharpish. Thanks in advance

Anybody knows if it is possible to convert one TY125 to 175 using a DT175 cylinder. Does it fit to the TY?

All you have to do is search! Majesty = http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/index....&hl=majesty

For those who need a manual for their TY175 I have copied mine and saved it as a PDF. You can download it here.

I've just bought a TY80 and want to renew the gearbox oil but am unsure how to fill it to the correct level. The Haynes manual says to check the dip stick attached to the underside of oil filler cap but my cap has no dip stick (my TY80 parts catalogue also doesn't show a dip stick on the oil filler cap). Please could anyone advise?

Does anyone have an opinion on what is the best height to set the fork tubes above the top yoke,mine are set flush at the moment,20mm has been advised in the Haynes book.Also what is the best fork oil grade to use. Regards.

Hi, I've just bought my son a TY80. The clutch is pretty heavy, I can work it fine with adult hands but his younger fingers aren't strong enough to cope! I've seen in some sellers adverts for these bikes that clutch modifications have been made to make the clutch much lighter. Any one out there able to telle me these mods are or how to make the clutch lighter to use in anyway? Thanks for any help.

can anyone give me any advice on setting etc on a yamaha TY 175? thanks x Jen x

For a conversion to 175 a need the diagram distribution of the transfers of the TY 175 cylinder. Somebody knows where I can find one. Thank you.

I have a 1985 TY 350 that needs rings and a piston ( maybe a cylinder too). Any tips, other than parting it out would be appreciated. I realize that yamaha no longer supports this bike. I'm just wondering what other creative individuals have done to keep them running. Thanks ken
