Check out TY Trials to find the year via numbers, my thoughts are probably ty250d which is 77

Hi Kev99, My TY250 is 493-300925 which puts it in the 77/78 D/E range, I suspect your is a few months later. The frame had been painted black but I found red paint under the horn bracket. The fuel tank was white with the square short vertical speed block graphic.
