Moderator DirtyDT Posted November 18, 2013 Moderator Share Posted November 18, 2013 Not sure about you bike but the clutch plates normally have to go in the basket a certain way. 120 degrees rotation with the dimple. So 12 oclock, 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock. There may be a special circular plate that has to be fitted also. As I say, it may not apply to your model but I know it does to many old yami's (including my YA). The plates may be contaminated if the wrong oil has been used or it could just be an adjustment issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthmover Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 Bet you thought I'd left this languishing in the shed......... Well actually, there has been an awful lot of other stuff going on, and another addition to the garage over Christmas, but we have progressed. The exhaust trim rattled, owing to the bolts holding it being stripped or snapped off. Cleaned up and tapped out, 3 out of the 4 were saved, but the 4th needed drilling and an insert. I also got some new exhaust rubbers and dampers (as the parts book calls them) so now the exhaust doesn't flop around. New gasket and seal at the manifold as well, to keep the gases where they should be. This where my camera skills let me down again, I'm too busy bolting stuff back together to get the photos! I took the tyres off both wheels, cleaned the inside of the rims, and replaced two missing spokes in the rear. Cleaned the hubs, took out the bearings and seals and replaced with new, put new brake shoes in, and replaced the tyres with something a little less perished! My plans for the front mudguard didn't pan out. I was hoping to use a spare fork stay from the TY175's to hold the mudguard, but they don't fit these forks. Back to the drawing board. I will take some better photos at some point, honest! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthmover Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 More pictures, as promised. Rolls along much better now! Rear wheel now with full compliment of spokes, and smaller sprocket. New sprocket bolts and an o-ring in the cush drive to keep everything nice and tight. Found a cable stay off a DT 175 to tidy up the front end, still need to make a decent bracket for the mudguard. I also picked up some washers and r-clips for the clocks, which looks a whole lot better than the bent paperclips that were originally holding them on.
