hey guys! i really need help with my 1977 yamaha dt 175! whats going on is the the higher you go up in the gears the slower it gets, 1 and second arnt bad but 3 it kinda flutters and wont have a normal rev to get into the next gear. ive had the carb apart myself and cleaned it out, then i took it to a so called "mechanic" and soaked me for 188 bucks, he said that the rubber between the carb and the air filter had a hole and was sucking in dust, so he put a new rubber on and it still does the same thing! after i got it back from this mechanic it was really bad, the thing would be hard starting and would flutter really bad. then it quit on me 5 miles away from home and i ha…

I’ve got a 1986 Dt125lc ypvs. Blown the motor a month or so ago and found out the gearbox is smashed to bits. I’ve found someone selling a 1987 tzr125 for sale. Wondering if anyone know if the engine mounts are the same and how hard it would be to wire everything up. (His energy comes with both CDI’s and a little bit of the loom)

Hi everyone, I'm new to the Yamaha Owners Club having recently passed my test and bought a 2002 Thundercat. Bike is lovely BUT it's just developed a problem with the rev counter. Issue is as follows:- Rev Counter now revs to 8K only(on the clock but bike rides ok)and drops back to zero and does this regularly before showing the right revs for a short time then dropping to zero again. Also I have noticed the needle moves to 1K and back to zero. When it does this zero to 1K range the bike has a minor hicup(a sort of miss or jolt). HELP Please anyone got any idea's of what the problem could be as it's now becoming a pain. Cheers

Hello, My husbands father passed away 15 years ago and used to own a restoration company. We have been trying to track down one of his bikes or cars for years. Recently, through making some great contacts at the DMV I got someone to look up his fathers name and she was able to tell me a VIN number on a 1971 Yamaha he used to own. She said it was : R5037137 Could anyone help me decode this VIN to learn more about it? Thanks so much!

Hi guys and gals, As you may know, I got bashed off my bike a couple of weeks ago. The wreckage has been inspected and given a Cat-C write-off (too costly to repair), with the recompense valuation being insanely low - I couldn't even buy half of an FJ with what the Glass guide supposedly says. My own insurance obviously will be pushing for a payment that would get me a replacement vehicle, but needs evidence of actual market costs. I'm having trouble finding many for sale myself, so does anyone know of any similar bikes going? Needs to be an FJ1200 3XW model 1992 onwards, ideally with mileage around the 45K mark. Many thanks, Tasky.

im trying to track down my dads old yds7 reg, DFM 932L, as a suprise for his 60th birthday,think he sold it in 1975. he loved this bike but had to sell it as i had just been born, can anyone help please. cheers

hi again folks. Can you tell me when the FZR 1000 exup went back to the two headlight design in 1996, did the forks return to the old design instead on the upside down ones? Also if the bike has a solo seat, can the rear seat be purchased on its own or would i have to buy the whole seat for the two of us to ride on. Hope to hear from you soon, Batts
