Yamaha Workshop

i have a 1978 xs250 and i need a wiring diagram if any1 can help me

Hi there I'm a new member, and I hope you can help. I have a 1997 Sr 125 which runs like a dream. However, I notice that the rear brake light keeps getting stuck on. I had the drum brake stripped and cleaned, but this is still happening. Could anyone help me and suggest what might be wrong? Also, there's a small bit of rust on the front wheel rim. I was planning to try Wurst's Rost Off to clean it. Does anyone have any better suggestions?

is there any way that i can make my dt 50 front suspension any harder as it is very soft an rather horrible

hi all. new to the forum. i was hoping there might be someone who could help with a DT50 LC year 2000. i have looked for a workshop manual on the internet but can't find one anywhere. me and my son have just bought the bike to do up and show him a bit about how things work. i am missing a front brake caliper and was wondering if the same caliber was used on a diffrent model. bits for this bike seem to be as rare as hens teath. any help would be much appreciated.

do any companies still make performance mufflers for old two stroke dirt bikes such as a 1981-1982 yamaha it250 if anyone nows can you please tell me. thanks

My 98 DT125R was stolen from right outside my house last week. Luckily the Police found it within 24 hours. Unfortunately, they found it on it's side in the River Thames, mostly submerged apart from one end of the handlebars. I've been told it was only in the water for a few hours at most. Whatever lowlife nicked it also ripped off the ignition barrel, headlamp, clocks, speedo & rev counter cables, and smashed up the petrol cap. Apart from replacing the missing/damaged parts, I'm assuming that I'm going to have to completely strip, clean and rebuild the bike before I can put it back on the road. Has anyone here come across a situation like this? Are there…

hi folks seen an advert for a company that does re-bores ect. in dublin, so i asked for a price for the rd 250E. he came back with a price of 225euro, (£200) and that was me supplying the pistons!!!!! the bike was not seized and it only has light scratches due to wear. is this inflation gone mad or what? anybody got a ball park figure of what it normally is? thanks

I brought my new r1yzf yamaha in december 2008 and after a month i noticed a noise comming from the engine and i wasnt getting the full power of the beast. I therefore took it back to the motobike shop in north camp farnborough to have work done on it and to find out what the prob was. It took them two days b4 they finnaly found the problem of which led them to taking apart my new bike this was then they found that the valves was not lined up properly they then got on to yamaha to get the parts needed. Its now been three weeks now and still i have not got my bike back, i have been onto yamaha and they have not been very helpfull i have asked for compo and somthing of goo…

I haven't used my 2000 Fazer 600 for several weeks. There is some juice in the battery, but I'm getting a loud buzzing sound from around the fuse box/battery area when I press the start button. Any ideas what they might be and what I need to do? My owners manual is in storage as we've just moved house - I assumed it was a 6volt system but I see other postings talking about 12volt - can you enlighten me? Thanks in advance NickB

Hi guys. Ive been away for 2 months and come back to my bike and it wont start. Now the battery is flat,this im know, but when i plug in the accumate, it reads that there is less than 1v charge so battery needs replacing according to the manual. Ive connected my car 12v charger and everything illuminates up, although my data tool gear indicator flashes along with my fuel light and oil light!!.....wheni try to fire her up, she just buzzes!!. Oh and by the way, when i disconnect the car battery charger, i get nothing!! Is it that i need a new battery or something else? Thanks

I have an FJ1200 - 1992 - and I am trying to locate a monoshock unit for it at the best price, but I have no idea what model the bike is. Can anybody help?? I have the Chassis number (of course) but my local Yam dealer isn't interested in telling me what model it is unless I pay him £690 for a new monoshock. I have sourced them MUCH cheaper, just need to know the model!!

Hey everyone. I'm living in Mexico City right now and got overly anxious and bought a SR 250 I shouldn't have. It was kinda of a mess and I missed a bunch of details when looking it over. I really needed the bike to get around. Traffic hear is horrendous. Anyway, it's running, fairly well considering the problems I've had to fix. Non-original carb I think is the biggest culprit for the less than stellar performance. I was in the process of restoring my Honda CB550 Four in Chicago and she was much more powerful than this little 250, so my opinion may be off - comparing a 550 to a 250. Still, I see plenty of guys riding around mexico on 150 and 125's …

Hi, i have a 2004 DT125RE and am wanting to derestrict it, i already have a DEP exhaust fitted but i have read this only helps below 65mph, i have read that you need to earth a wire from below the speedo so that the revs do not cut off but do not know how to do this or where to earth it to???

I have a UK mk3 RD125LC YPVS which obviously has no working power valve. I have a friend at work who used to have an import RD 125 YPVS and has found a spare power valve servo with all the cables and (excuse my ignorance, I don't know what it's called) the bit that fits to the barrel and works the power valve. It all looks like it will fit my bike - there's a bracket on the frame to fit the servo, there's a plug on the loom to wire it in and the other bit looks like it fit stright onto the barrel, but he thinks (he can't be sure) that his CDI was blue where mine is black. I'm tempted to strap it all to my bike and see what happens, but I'm worried it might shat i…
