What motor oil is recommended to use on the XS500 … Have some other old 4-strokes that I use 10W-40 Semi Synthetic JASO MA2 on that work very well.

Have countless Google searches without finding concrete brochures with years. Trying to find out what color scheme could be selected on the 1977 Yamaha XS500 when they were new from the factory...

I am restoring a yamaha rs125 and the bike i bought is missing the headlight, bowl and lens. If anyone owns this model could they have a look on the bowl as there should be a code something like YHA 107 SAE60. Thanking you in anticipation Jufra

Who has the best selection of classic Yamaha parts for the XS500... Think it's best to buy from one shop to save shipping costs 🙂

Hi everyone. I just bought a 73 RT3 360 and I'm going to need some help finding a few parts my mechanic told me I might need. I am looking for a fuel tank, carburetor, rear swingarm bushings, tires, and possibly a new wiring harness. If anybody knows any places online or perhaps a shop that would carry these parts I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank You

Hello everyone! I have an RXS100 with a weird problem. To start with, it's a barn find and it's not been used for 20 years. When I got it, I threw it together to see if the engine was knackered. It wasn't. In this time, I noticed problems getting it into gear, clutch problems, oil leaking, scratches, missing parts, etc - but it did run. So then, late last winter, I stripped it right down again for a respray, new seals, etc, etc. I've come to put it back together. I've resprayed parts, bought new ones, etc. However, something which I've not been able to fix is the gear problem. When I stripped the engine down, I also stripped the gears down to see …

I have a 1984 Yamaha V50 Automatic and it has developed a problem where after a few minutes of running it will stall under acceleration. Particularly after a longer period of braking. When given any throttle it doesn’t accelerate and instead cuts out. I have tried cleaning the carbs including the jets, the tank has been cleaned, fuel pipes have been replaced, new air filter and new spark plug. Idles fine and ok for the first few minutes of riding.

Hi, just wondering what mix are you using? I did have a 1/50 mix, but mix went very oily and difficult to start.

Hi, can anyone help? I need to source a lighting resistor for my 1976 V50, UK based. Alternatively if anyone can recommend another bikes part that will suit or the specifications of the resistor. Thank you.

Hello! Recent member... Is this the right place for Radian queries!? Please move or redirect if required.... Currently riding a 2010 Triumph Tiger 1050....and enjoy tinkering....will happily take on brakes, bearings, seals, headers etc... but... have had my "head turned" by a lovely imported 1988(?) Radian... Something I can tinker with at my leisure etc. Ride around the back roads of Oxfordshire....at the speed limit...looking cool at the lights (well, as cool as a middle aged over weight man can look)! My question is/are - am I in for a world of pain with a Radian? Are spares hard to come by? Is content (online) for help and advice hard to come by? A…

Hello, i have a yamaha DT 125 from 1985, its my first bike and im in the process of restoring it. So far i have salvaged what i could given most parts for it now are gold, but the exhaust pipe is cracked and cant be welded. Does anyone know were you can get either a new old stock exhaust or preferably a custom one? Thx

As per the title really. I just recently won an ebay auction for one of these 29R models, don't think seller knew it was an E-II. But anyway I'm starting to recommission it & was hoping maybe someone on here has even heard of this model, or know something about it, how rare? how many made? etc, as not many people seem to. I'm also looking for some original carbs (Hitachi HSC33's code 29R00) to replace the incorrect carbs it came with (2 sets of HSC32's, one jetted to US spec XJ650's and the other jetted to UK spec XJ750's) or any other 29R parts anyone may have I may be interested too... Cheers, Dan.

These were JDM only.I bought it from an importer in the UK in April 2019 for £2k in need of a complete engine rebuild which I done myself except the crank rebuild and rebore work, replaced all the rubber bits except the radiator hoses they are in good condition and got it on the road in July 2019.It only had 9k on the clock but had been stood for many years in Japan. Total cost of buying the bike and fixing it in totally standard trim then registering was £2.8k. Since then I have bought other stuff and spent around another £800 ish but that was my choice.After getting it on the road in standard trim it was time to start thinking about making an already fun bike even…

It's time to pass on the xs250, only because I don't use it. The classifieds boards here don't have many viewings, ebay is full of ****heads and scammers, and biketrader / MCN are really only for newer bikes. Has anyone found somewhere were I could sell it?
