Drew Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hi, This is my first post. I have an old 50cc yamaha and i don't know what model the bike is. My aim is to restore it, but first of all i'm trying to get a decent spark - so far i've only managed to get a weak spark! The bike's side cover has "yamaha mini" on it, the tank has "yamaha 50" on it, the muffler has "50" on it too. The frame and engine number is FT1-450150. Anyway, i was hoping that someone out there would be able to recognise the model if i posted some images on my web site. The address is http://www.progalleries.com.au/en/Album/Cover.asp?A=869923 Thanks Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 thanks for that, i thought it was a DT. You wouldn't happen to know roughly what year it is? Also, I would like to find a workshop manual that would cover it, can anyone suggest a book which would have a wiring diagram etc. thanks andrew to the forum Drew.

I bet Haynes makes a manual for this bike......but you might have to order it. Try a Google search for Haynes Shop Manuals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
