Couple of months ago, got on my bike one morning, and none of my lights were working.... I had ridden home the night before and didnt have any problems, no flickering, not excessively bright. buzzed out wiring loom... no shorts, put the loom back in.... battery shorted and power AND earth cables melted. buzzed out loom on bike last night... all three wires leading to the headlight are earthing out with the bike switched on and not running. Regulator/rectifier works fine. bike runs fine... having to ride wit battery not connected to avoid the shorting Unsure what to make of this, bit of a noob at electrical stuff and crap at troubleshooting, tried all I can t…

Hi, I am new to the site, can anyone tell me a good place for genuine spares for the 250 LC. Also does anyone know the approx weight of this bike, Many thanks, Mick.

Hi All. Just joined forum today Been riding RSV mille for 8 years but finally got an LC 350 after 2years of looking. chuffed ! Rode them at 17 - 20 in the eighties and never forgotten them. Love the RSV but the LC is in my blood = sound, smell, looks, skinny tyres ? awsome great to be back, even if it takes another 15 years to get it running right. I knew I shouldn't of sold my originals in 1984 pugrsvmille

Hi Guys , Just trying to get back into LCs and have been looking around and have been offered a bike but the engine and frame numbers dont match but I have read some where that that did happen when some bikes were built. Perhalps you could shed some light on it. The bike was registered in the UK in 87-88 It is a 1WT type ( I took photos of the frame number but they are not clear, I will take some more when I can ) But has the engine number 31K-054478 Is there any chance that this is a genuine bike and not had an engine change. Regards Martin

Anyone know what has happened to the rd/rz forum? seemed to have gone down http://www.yamaha-rd.com/forum/

Just fitted some RD carbs onto a YDS5 engine which I had to modify the carbs so they would fit on the stubs but I seem to be having issues of flooding the engine and petrol coming out the exhaust. I have checked the floats and they worked fine and I have put the top notch on the needle. That made no difference could it be the jet that need changing or could it be the throttle slides are to high but there in no adjustment left on the throttle cable.

Sharing on behalf of a friend of a friend of a friend on FB Stolen from garage last night , Yamaha rd 350 ypvs , D733 UVV , please keep an eye out for it ....... I believe South Coast Southampton Area.

right i have a DT125 1991 and have looked at the rd125 wheels as i want them on my dt to start supermoting it! any help saying if they will fit or not? any help thx mark

Please help the bike will start up ok but when running it's reluctant to go over 5000 revs (50mph max)it holds back, i've stripped the carbs all looks nice and clean and ok, i've balanced them the best i can. but i still get this problem, I've started the bike with the right carb only (disconnected the left ht lead) and set the carb to idle about 1.3, but when i try the left carb only it will not start. I started the bike with both carbs and removed the right ht lead, engine kept running so i set this to idle at 1.3 for the left. BUT One thing i notice when running with one carb is the right side i can rev quite well but the left side is holding back and will not rev …
