  1. I am 99.9% sure is not the coil. I can not ever think of anyone ever needing a coil(except the motoplat that had the cdi also). I don`t have the answer to your question.(Without looking it up) But we would all like to hear what you find.
  2. Does not matter how clean the carb is. What matters is if the pilot circuit is clear and the choke circuit is clear. (As in letting fluid pass) Also it sounds like you have a bad needle & seat(the float valve) and / or the petcock is bad. Should usually start 2nd or third kick.
  3. on the stock ty, the peg was to fold up out of the way. I would kick softly or rotate it forward, slamming it into the peg will cause a short life span on the shaft.
  4. Looks like a fun day out, keep it up!
  5. lineaway

    Rear wheel gap!

    If you have a `07 and his was an `08 that is why. The `08 ran better. Now turnin` the tire trick is only the fresher nobs are now closer to the rubber?
  6. I`m not sure being you said that you were new to the sport, but everyone has already done the 1 for a stop,then 2 for a stop with a foot down. Actually the stop with the foot down should never have been allowed, or should have been a three since at that point you are no longer riding.
  7. Try and get a used one. Some body is bound to have one.
  8. I would of just pressed it off. Why would anyone ruin a part unless you have spares.
  9. Try 8 to 14 ounces or most of the way through the `holes`. Taking the weight off completely is quite hard on the clutch and not as rideable. It is worth doing.
  10. I`ve done it before. I cannot remember the details but your assembly is backwards I believe. Sorry I can`t give you the specifics.
  11. If you have fuel in the exhaust, then the crank is flooded which wets the plug right away. Leave the gas off and remove front pipe to try to remove excess fuel. You need to clean the carb to stop the flooding and a new plug would not hurt.
  12. Let`s see you read on facebook that a trial was terribly set,you rant on here about rules,don`t enjoy the feed back, you tell us you are now going to quit because you were raised a spoiled brat. Donate your bike to a kid that wants to ride.
  13. Here`s my two cents. The clutch has nothing to do with it starting if the trans is in nuetral. Second if it will not kickstart with fuel, compression and spark the power starter will probably help make things worse. If you have compression and spark have you tried to `prime the engine` directly into the plug hole,with just a little fuel? Or is the engine so flooded already that the plug is dripping wet?
  14. You put in the wrong plug. Should be a BPR7es The p is for a projected tip.
  15. No,I don`t think you bought the wrong bike. You just need some time to get used to a 4 stroke. Ride a higher gear and quit chopping the throttle all the time. With the 2 stroke you could get away with rapid throttle changes, you will smooth out with more time on the bike.
  16. Yes it`s a `91 with all that green. Last year was a `94 that was reddish orange with black forks.
  17. Read your post and you almost have the fix. Something is too tight or he is riding the pedal. Chances are the rod is adjusted too tight. Have seen the same things happen at long distance events or long steep trails whre you are constantly on the rear brake for 20 minutes plus.
  18. I would be so pumped! Let us know how it goes. Has to be the best `new` design in years. Can`t wait till I can ride one. P.S> how`s your friends tranny work out?
  19. I believe yamaha had several mono shock ty`s. Most 77 -80. Not production available to the public, but had been visable for all to see. The ty250/350 had to be the best bike made in the 80`s.
  20. It can be done with no parts unless the float bowl gasket is ruined. If you have a stiff metal brush, pull out one of the bristles with pliers. That gives you a strong enough wire to clean out the main jet and pilot jet. Do not forget the small passageway on the side of the bowl.A small wire brush or a steel dish wahing pad can clean most of the green off enough to make it run well again.
  21. You have already have the right idea. Carb is clogged up with old gas. Make sure the pilot jet flows fuel.
  22. Almost all yamahas can have the shift shaft replaced without splitting the engine. Most are just under the clutch cover.
  23. sounds more like the shift shaft had one of the rollers come apart. Which would require the engine to be split. Also check the top hat. (the piece with the spring on the end of the shifter.)Which is located behind the clutch. You might try a search in the forum as this is a common problem. Was the shifter hit or struck by a rock? Usually some kind of blow to the bike happens first.
