Hi all I know that the TY350 was sold in the USA. I was wondering if any of the bikes or the barrels has come over to the UK. Cheers Scott

Hi folks, Any one here know the volume of oil to put in the standard forks of the above bike, and what is the best pre mix ratio useing fully synthetic oil? Any help appreciated. Cheers

i am looking for a rear wheel for my serow they seem to be like hens teeth- except rounder with more spokes- ahem i look forward to hearing from you kind regards, andy.

Cos it has been such a grot day and too wet to do firewood,I got a pass out - spent the afternoon building up my second ty250 twinshock.Now I dont need a second bike the same but was fed up with shuffling boxes of bits around the workshop floor.Cant make up my mind wether to go ahead with the XT225 electric start conversion or to just flog it.Really like the idea of a proper four stroke Yam - plus I get a complete spare 250 motor for my other bike. Anyway my question is,the bike has no log book but the frame/engine numbers are clearly visible.Is it possible to get an age related plate for it,as I read a while ago that the frame numb…

need help here guys, I want to get my beamish suzuki through an MOT (its road registered already) i just want the basic day light mot ,ie no lights, brake light etc! the way i see it is road legal tyres( will trials tyres pass???) large number plate? quite exhaust? continous electric horn/ and a speedo? is this it? or have i missed anything? i heard that you dont need a rear brake light or even a rear reflecter for a day time mot is this true? need to try some tight / twisty green lanes for something different so need to be road legal!

the usual broken studs in the basket. what other models of yamaha will work 350, 125, or an mx 250? if any of you happen to be on the island or lower main land of b.c. give me a call (250) 418 5669 thanks, jer.

I bought a TY80 for nephew. I got it running like a top but still have one problem, the clutch is frozen. I know it's not uncommon for a bike that been sitting to have the clutch plates freeze up. I tried riding it in first and second gear with the clutch pulled and then I would stand on the rear brake. It didn't work. After about 10 attempts I figured I see if anyone has a tip for freeing the clutch without pulling the case cover. If I do pulling the engine cover I assume the oil pump has to be removed to fully pull the case cover. How hard is it to pull the oil pump and are there any pitfalls to avoid? Thanks for the input.

i found an entire clutch assembly from a 74 ty. the fellow thinks it would work in an 84. any thoughts?

I understand it is possible to up grade to electronic ignition. What is the general feeling with regards this mod ie. Price, avaliability and performance enhancement and above all reliability. Also I have, I presume the standard flywheel weight, I would like a little more sharpness on the pick up . Without discarding completely what is best considered weight or size. Any help would be greatly recieved as recently traveled many many miles to a trial, only to fail at the first section with electric problems , was so peeved I nearly bought a Honda.......

can anyone out there tell me what the colour code is or the best match for my frame on a ty250 genuine colour its 1978 model so i can get my local paint shop to paint it for me thanks

Spotted this TY on EBAY and was wondering if it worth a bid to restore and use as a competitive twin shock. Any opinions welcome. Item number 320043007821 T

hi can any body tell me if the wheels out of a ty175 will fit in the ty 250 mono as need new front cheers

I bought a Ty175 a few months ago, it felt very underpowered so after checking I took it for a re-bore, it turns out it wasnt a 175 but a 125. I took it back to the dealers where i bought it and they were great, it took a couple of weeks but they got me a 175 barrel and head, and had it re-bored for me. Now i've put it all back together it just not running right. It doesnt want to rev in gear and its not to keen on revving out of gear, the carb was set up for a 125 so i've changed the main jet back to 175 size (240), the only way i can get it to rev somewhere near what it should is to remove the air filter and even the air filter box lid, putting either back seems to re…

Just got a ty175,anybody know of good web sites for technical,hints,forums,ect.Cheers Dale.

Does anyone know if the tyz250/Scorpa engine shares parts with any of Yamaha's non-trials models? I am specifically looking for clutch plates. I am hoping I can find those parts at the local Yamaha dealer (USA), where my sister works. Thanks for your help.

Help! I've tried all the usual suspects but it still wont spark. It had a new condenser and points 6 months ago so i'm guessing it's not them.

Bought my twinshock ty250 off Ebay back in the summer,lovely looking bike - shot engine.No problem,I thought - have it apart and do a full rebuild and then I'll have a reliable bike that I can ride for a few years with no worries.Built it up with new mains,seals,big end,rod,small end,bore to +1mm,piston + rings. It rattles,more than I think it should.What I would like to know is are there any special tricks to stopping it rattling.The parts came from Hursts, the barrel was bored to the bottom tolerance and I spent a long time with swiss files on the ports making a good radius on each edge.I built up the crank and straig…

I need a bit of welding on a magnesium alloy flywheel cover doing. Any suggestions? Many thanks.

how goes my like minded and distant friends? Bought myself a mono ty 250 pinky and i cannot for the life of me trck down a workshop manual Haynes or otherwise. Has anyone out there in cyberspace have any suggestions? andy bone.

i have a 1995 yamaha ty 250 and was wondering if there was anything i could do to the carb to improve the performance i have taken tha carb off and there is a nut that screw on to the bottom of the jet and wondered if removing this would make any difference any help would be appriciated cheers tom
