I am trying to find a flywheel puller for my 1975 DT175. I am able to find one that is supposed to fit a 1976. Anyone know if these two bikes use a different puller?

Hey there everyone. Here's a few more pictures of my 1985 Yamaha FZ400. As i got it (£70) First job - total strip down and frame re-sprayed. As it is now. With modified ZX4r race rear seat fairing. Nearly ready for painting. Engine has been re-done, all parts tarted up. Hope you all like it. Will post more pic's when it's finished.

o.k. new here so intro first, im jason, experianced rider with passion for 2 stroke. now down to the problem at hand... After many attempts and differing problems my tzr 125 88 made her first cough last week, build from bits with alot of help from ebay and haynes. BUT... she wont start, problem being no (very little) fuel is getting to the engine (spark plug's dry), so 1st thought CARB, checked float hight n condition, jets, pipes, tap, intake, everything, no visable or apparent problems, its a standard 28mm mikuni, custom air filter (k n N), ov bore 1.0 + piston oversize, single ring (top) she intermitently backfires and pisses fuel out from all 3 over flow pipe…

I've purchased an OEM 40T rear drive sprocket. Now I need to get a front sprocket, but I wanted to ask you guys some questions before I do.. just so I can learn a bit. Are there certain size sprocket combinations that are required? Like 16/40? Or can I use a different front sprocket with a 40 tooth back sprocket. What will give me better mpg, or lower RPMs at higher speeds? I'm getting confused with this stuff Thanks!

Hey there everyone. I have just purchased another FZ400 (well i'm hoping thats what it is) The problem that I have is the log book I was given for the bike does not state what model it is. It states that it was imported in 1994. It also shows that is a 1985 model. The only thing that it says about the bike is that it is yamaha 400cc bike. Why doesn't it show what model it is? I'm curious to know whether it IS an FZ or an FZR? Any help much appreciated Phil 4 wheels moves your body - 2 wheels moves your soul !
