  2. Majesty Tank/seat Unit

    in Yamaha

    Posted

    I emailed Shedworks as they have a Majesty style tank/seat for a TY175 on their website, but they did not know if it would fit a Mini Majesty frame.

    I guess that it wont because the frames are different.

    bestrcpilot I guess that yours would not fit either for the same reason, but thanks anyway.

    Charlie I am very interested if nothing is available.

  5. TLR200 re-wiring problem

    in Honda

    Posted

    I have stripped out the electrical wiring on my TLR200 as I have removed the lights, ignition lock etc.

    My only problem with re-wiring it are the wires from the alternator.

    The Clymer manual shows a red/black wire from the alternator to the CDI unit, I don't have one but do have a black wire.

    Can anyone confirm that this is the correct one?

    I assume that the other 3 wires from the alternator can be removed.

    I realise that the green and blue/yellow wires from the pick-up also connect to the CDI unit.

    Any advice will be much appreciated.

  6. TLR200 choke problem.

    in Honda

    Posted

    I just took a look at the spark plug and it's not the correct one for the bike, infact it's nowhere near.

    I will fit the right one and see if it makes any difference.

    Every bike I have owned has had high revs on choke but not this one.

  7. TLR200 choke problem.

    in Honda

    Posted · Edited by bhg

    From cold it starts 2nd kick on FULL choke, but I have to keep the revs up or it stalls.

    It takes a couple of minutes to warm up and tick over without stalling, even with the choke full on.

    As I understand most carbs increase the amount of fuel delivered when the choke is on, and if this is not happening it would explain my problem.

    Does anyone know if this is the case with a Keihin PO8A carb, and if so how?

  8. TLR200 choke problem.

    I have just bought a TLR200, it runs PERFECTLY when warm, but it won't tick over when cold on choke and stalls if I don't keep the revs up.

    I have cleaned the carb and blown it through with an air-line, and the butterfly valve seems to be working.

    It is the right carb for the bike, the jets are standard, needle is 2nd groove from the top, and the rubber O-rings are good.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

  9. Mini Majesty

    in Yamaha

    Posted

    Hi

    I have been thinking about building a Mini Majesty for some time, and have the TY parts that I need.

    Is the Mini Majesty frame smaller than a standard TY175? (and suitable for an adult rider?)

    Does it really make much difference to the handling characteristics?

    By how much should the swinging arm be extended?

    Has anyone had any problems with building one, or issues with owning it?

  15. 1995 Jt320 Top End Noise

    in Gas Gas

    Posted

    Thanks for your advice Wayne

    I have had worn barrel problems with smaller 2strokes in the past, but this sounds different to me.

    On those bikes the rattle was worse when ticking-over really slow, and more erratic, this is more regular.

    The other bikes were air-cooled, maybe that is why it sounds different (no fins to amplify/change the sound)

    What do you think?

  16. 1995 Jt320 Top End Noise

    in Gas Gas

    Posted · Edited by bhg

    I recently bought a 1995 JT320.

    It is in good clean condition and was not expensive so I wasnt that bothered that it had a bit of a top end rattle. The worst outcome (I thought) would be a rebore, new piston, and rings.

    I did not know that it has a plated barrel, and re-plating piston and rings would cost nearly as much as I paid for the bike.

    The bike has now been ridden for about 4 or 5 hours and the noise has NOT got any worse.

    I will try to describe in detail and hope someone can tell me what the problem is.......

    1. The noise is coming from the top end

    2. It is NOT piston slap

    3. It only gets very slightly louder when it warms up

    4. It is like a regular tapping that speeds up with the revs

    5. It does not change when it is under load accelerating or decelerating

    6. It is less noticeable at higher revs (this could be because the exhaust noise is masking it)

    7. The bike has loads of power

    8. It takes LOTS more effort to kick start it than my TXT 270 (so I assume it has good compression)

    I am hoping that someone will tell me it just needs a small end bearing, but I won't strip it down untill I have got some advice from this forum !

  18. 1999 Txt Fork Oil Seal Problem

    in Gas Gas

    Posted

    I cant figure out how to remove the fork oil seal retaining circlips on my 1999 TXT 270

    I have watched the video for later models that have wire circlips, but mine have flat ones ( like the ones that have a loop on each end, but without the loops )

    They need to be closed up to get them out but how !!!!!!

    Please help

  19. Gasgas Txt 270 1999 Clutch Replacement

    in Gas Gas

    Posted

    I need to fit new clutch plates to my GasGas TXT 270 1999

    1. Can I do this by simply removing the cicular cover, or does the side casing have to be removed?

    2. Is there anything I should be aware of that may not be obvious.

    I have fitted a new clutch to a 125 Suzuki, but it was cable operated, air cooled, and I had a workshop manual !!!!!!!
