    Hi I have a RD 350 ypvs and I cant figure out what the 3 fuel tap positions down, up, and rear horizontel do, is there a reserve on the bike or is it only prime etc. Thanks jgp

    Hi, Help please, My 89 ypvs has started vibrating through the handlebars grips, fingers are tingling after a day out, I cant see anything out of the ordinary, the tyres are good, as are the head bearings and forks, l just cant figure out what is the cause.

    Hi, Vic Thanks for the info but my tap only turns upwards, to the right and down, at the mo I am running the bike with the tap turned to the right. I suppose I will just have to make sure I keep the tank filled up after a 100 miles

    Hi agai, I forgot to mention in my other request re petrol tap I would also like to convert the speedo to read miles instead of kilos there is a mph sticker on the clock but is a bit dodgy I think and not very clear.

    Hi all, I have been doing up a FZR 400 Genesis exup circa 1988 I have had to buy a fuel tap as one was missing but I cant tell which way it should point for reserve, up, left or down!! Any help Cheers John. Must admit I love the little beast...
  7. Hi All, Just wondering if anybody out there has a fuel tap/lever off a Yamaha FZR 400 circa 1988 laid about or know of one anywhere as I have not got one on my bike. Thanks John p.s. I have scoured the small ads to no avail.

    Well I am glad to say I eventually found the little b**ger, It was hidden on the left hand side behind a fairing bracket, the best laugh is I downloaded the picture off a CD rom I got off e bay, (value for money) decided to print it off, set the printer and buzzed off after getting the pic down to the garage, came back a little later and found 70+ pages on the floor, the printer had done the whole CR Rom, (my fault for not setting the printer right, its my age you know) so now I have a complete service book. Roll on the next task.

    Hi to all, as I have just aquired a FZR 400 to do up which I must admit is rather enjoyable, so I though it prudent to join a good club, as I might have to call for help, I am knocking on a bit, but in my youth, my bikes were the 350 ypvs and RD 250 and a couple of Yamaha trailies, anyway my round next. Cheers
