atocp Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hi there, I recently got a 1987 (i think) YB100 for free. And apart from some minor wear and some missing parts, it was pretty much all there. I am however missing some parts that are essential. Does anyone know if the following parts from a FS1E would be ok in the YB100? I can get parts for the FS1E a lot easier, and I am finding difficulties in getting the required ones for the yb100. The fuel tap. I can get a fs1e 12mm tap.The brake rod. Are they pretty generic just dependant on length and diameter?Springs for the centre stand, brake pedal and back brake switch? As you may realise, this is my first bike and im tackling everthing on it myself. All this before i've even taken my CBT. Thank you for any help or advice given, much apprectiated. atocp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they get the bike through it's MOT it should be ok. Welcome to the world of basic custom jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory the rear brake switch is the same but I could speak for the other parts - keep looking on fleabay YB parts do come up from time to time. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock r1 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 The main dealer should be able to order the parts for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
