    you can't beat the official yamaha service manual. I have 4 haynes and 1 clymer (which i've never used) and generally use the haynes for mucky fingers and writing in, but always refer to the yam for torque settings etc

    there is a circlip between the tacho gear and the body, flick that out across the garage and spend a day searching for it.... next day, pull the drive down and then push out the seal from the inside out. drewps

    you'll have to fish that chunk out anyways, get someone to weld it back in |I've seen this on a 250 engine i had knocking around, so your not on your own. put it down to experience you sad sweet dreamer!!

    K'nell, only adjust the chain at its tightest point ie you have to move the wheel and feel the chain to guage where it is. then adjust to that. You'll knacker the output bearing if you load it with a few tons of torque.
  12. did you try the clutch cable, that can run dry and take a while to return the clutch!! get it oiled up or renewed $300 for a bike! get it for $200 and you can use for parts if no good

    i think you need to put in some more colour keys to balance out the wheels. on the tank maybe? you need a spring seat for that and remove the rear fender mount for somethng less intrusive and use a front fender on the rear to mount your rear lamp setup good start, and keep it up!
