Premixing R5
I am planning on just premixing my 72 R5 because I can't find a part for the oil injection system that I need. I was just wondering if anyone knew the mix ratio for it? How much oil per gallon of gas?

Fork Boots for R5
Does anyone know the fork diameter of the 72 R5? I found fork gaitors for the XS650.... is it the same diameter?

Fork Boots for R5
I know these aren't on a Yamaha, but I'm looking for a set of the boot things that are covering the forks like on this Honda. Anyone know where to find some?

Yamaha R5 - Straight Pipes
I hate to keep harping on it... I found these baffles from JC Whitney: http://www.jcwhitney.com/INTERNAL-BAFFLES/...14658_10111.jcw If I were to put these in the straight pipes would that help with the back pressure that is needed?

Yamaha R5 - Straight Pipes
Theoretically is there anything I could put in them to act as the baffles do in the stock pipes? I know this is unheard of, I just think they would look/sound great on it and I'm trying to figure out someway to make it work!

Yamaha R5 - Straight Pipes
I'm planning on changing out the stock exhaust on my 72 R5 with a set of straight pipes that turn out right behind the foot pegs.... anyone pulled off straight pipes on one of these? All I've heard so far is grief over doing this....? I know it will reduce power somewhat, but I'm not wanting to race the bike, just have a good bike to ride around town.

Mags to fit 72 R5
Hey guys! Just wondering if anyone knows where to find some mag wheels to fit a 72 R5? I've looked on ebay but can't really find much. I'm not sure though which other bikes I may be able to find them on that will fit mine.... Thanks!
