gteps Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Hello, I'm new to the forum as I recently purchased a Yamaha TT600R which I have now found out has a later engine fitted, this one with the electric start, all in all I'm very pleased with the bike, got the Ohlins rear shock etc, it was purchased to do a little green lane riding. Anyway, I've managed to get general service parts and fork oil seals without to much of a problem but I need a new gear lever, the Yamaha listed one is ridiculously expensive for such an old bike and I wondered if anyone could tell me if an XT600 gear lever would fit or if you know a supplier that makes pattern ones cheaper ? I look forward to hearing from you soon and getting lots of advice and help from forum members. Cheers gteps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again. gteps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gteps Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Thanks for all your advice, I managed to purchase a new gear lever from David Lambeth of Rally and Overland, very helpful and knowledgable gent :-} The TT600R is now finished and awaiting taxing at the begining of September, then its time to hit a few green lanes for a little fun.
