goolan82 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Hey guys just baught myself a little project. It looked like a classic dt50 but when i checked out the chassis number it came up as a 1977 ty50m. The strange thing is the chassis has a mount for a monoshock and not rear twin shocks. could anyone shed some light on weather they made a single shock version at any point? Thanks in advance guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I this what it looks like? Cos I can't find a mono shock one, maybe someone modded it with parts from a DT50. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabiostar Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 one of those was my first ever road bike when i was 16. def twin shock. it was as far as i remember made in 1977, if you cut the pipe open under the seat all yamaha done to restrict them was weld a baffle in. wip it out and away you go upto a heady 50 mph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
