August 17, 200818 yr Has anyone a suggestion for a more generous seat for my 1974 TY250? I want to trail ride rather than trial ride. Is there any easy bolt on seat from some other model that will put enduro-comfort under me? Thanks Kodiak Bill
August 18, 200818 yr Bill, The seat you are looking for is the one fitted to the CAT model (1974) which had a full length seat, forward footrests and a longer rear brake pedal. You will see them on the Bay from time to time. Try looking worldwide on e bay under Yamaha TY. Tony
August 18, 200818 yr Author Thanks, Tony. I've purchased on Ebay & installed the lower/forward footpegs & brake pedal kit. The seat you mentioned would complete the package. Rear shocks are shot and I'm looking for economical replacements. I had revived this TY from abandonment and find it is a great learner bike for those wanting to get started in the dirt. Plus, I like riding it myself. Bill PS I also found a TY175 that is more of a donor bike than a candidate for restoration.
