I posted a topic in yamaha forum asking if anyone knew where I could get the extended arm type clutch lightener for my TY250 but no joy, thought I would try posting it in aircooled mono forum as it seems to get a wider audience.

A couple of people suggested making one but I don't have access to metal working equipment. I am sure that someone somewhere must be still make these in a little workshop as so many bikes seem to have them (except mine!)

I have just finished restoring my TY back to it's former glory which I posted in the Yamaha forum recently and am looking for the clutch lightener to further improve the riding experience, and my skills!!

Any help / contacts would be greatfully received, a spare clutch lightener would be even better!!

May know someone who has one , I will pm you tomorrow when i ve spoken to him

Take it to somebody who can weld, and add 3/4".

Also, make your own cable out of thinner, more flexible wire, and you'll have a clutch that feels very close to hydraulic.

I THINK SAMMY MILLER HAS A UNIT FOR OLDER BIKES

IF MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT ITS CABLE OPERATED

I have seen the Sammy Miller pulley type but it is bulky and various people have told me that they don't work very well, in their opinion.

The search continues............

Don't be sad...

It really is a snap to cut the thing in the middle and add 3/4".

That way you won't be adding more parts (extender, nut, bolt) that could cause trouble.

Simpler=better.

I have a mig welder and my trial biking friend is also a dab hand with metalwork so we will cut and carve to make my lightener as suggested, After spending the last few months restoring the bike I was looking for something I could just "bolt on" for a change but never mind, fabrication can be done!!

I am happy, my bike is done and this week got a new rear tyre on so I have no more excuses when I fall off tommorow when we go riding!!!

Thanks folks

my ty's cluch has had this done and it works rele well! some people say that it is like there hydrolic cluch

Go to B&J Racing and buy a 3 position clutch lever. It's a bolt on.
