scorpa3 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I did consider fitting a starter motor to a SY125; as I mentioned locating the battery was going to be the biggest challenge. Fitting the starter and idle gear looks to be fairly straight forward, here's a close up of the mounting point which you will see would need machining, or I suspect that it would be a simple matter of buying a new casing etc from a breakers.

efi64 Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Here is a link to a magazine comparison between the WR250, T-ride and the Sy 250F. Anyone with good enough French to translate the article ? What interests me is whether the T-ride has the Sy 250F Cams, Carburator, Flywheel and gearing or is it closer to the WR engine wise ? http://www.scorpa.fr/uploads/revues/french...ovembre2007.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird2 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I'm a 68 year old guy looking for ways to keep me riding on our challenging Maryland terain and thinking of moding a sy250f - so this thread was VERY interesting. IF anyone has ideas for a good bike for me to make a trail bike out of please chime in. I currently have a KTM 200 XCW and a Beta 300 Evo 4t. The SY250F looks promising because it looks like it could be moded to add an auto clutch, normal space Yamaha gears and possibly even e-start. Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help Better off with the Beta, find a long range kit! Or just make a little prop seat to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drake Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Have you looked at the Yamaha Tricker. i know of a couple of guys who have done a large wheel conversion on them and are very impressed with the result. Good for trail riding and ldt's Rieju also do a clone called the tango i believe which is a bit cheaper Alternatively what about a Gas Gas Pampera?
