Hi There,

I had a back wheel off for maintenance and when putting it back on found im missing the bolt that the brake rod goes through securing it to the actuating lever.

I uploaded a picture, its not numbered but its that cylindrical bolt with the hole in it between the digits 27 & 28.

Any Ideas on where to get a proper replacement, I figure on going to a hardware store and browsing for something that will fit.

The Bikes a 1978 Yam XS400.

With Thanks,

Its not a bolt is it? looks more like a common or garden 'wotsit' to me AKA Clevis pin.

EDIT, get the part number from the parts manual (see workshop sticky) then you will have something to google with. ...probably common to other bikes too such as RD's

Could be, im using bolt as a generic term, dont really know what its proper name is.

I think the part you require is part #90249-12008-00 described as a "pin" which is listed under the stand-footrest-brake pedal section. I would think you should still be able to order one from your local Yamaha dealer. Tony

Common as muck, thats the same part number as my DT175MX, I bet its the same for dozens of models

, I must be missing something here, I dont see anything un-numbered on that drawing in the vicinity of 27 and 28 ?

It's lurking betwee the 'other' 27 and 28

Ok I see it now (must get to specsavers) its on the 'off-side' of the bike, I think what you might have seen in the DIY shops Gazampa is this http://www.screwfix.com/prods/77320/Fixings/Furniture-Fixings/Cross-Dowel-M6-x-14mm-Pack-of-50

it looks similair, like OG said its a 'clevis pin' this should be a generic part, I wouldn't do the DIY thang

HTH

Thanks Tony, appreciate it. Ordered off the internet and part arrived yesterday and fits into place perfectly. Cost $1.40 .It was described as a 'Pin, Special Shape'.

And the part was listed in the 'Stand - Footrest - Brake Pedal' Schematic, # 42, in the 'Control and Brake' Category, I had been looking at and listed earlier in the post was in the 'Wheels - Tires - Final Drive' category as the 'Rear Wheel' Diagram.
