Where to start on my 1974 Yamaha DT360 Enduro restoration?
that is good news indeed. congrats! my suggestion for a first thing to tackle is to add a layer of duct tape onto the seat. that will last until you can get it fixed proper, and you wont get off from test rides with foam fluffy all over your bum. if you need the air cleaner cover for the kickstart side, let me know. as mine was missing one when i bought it too. since i work at a place that can do fiberglass, I made my own. still have the mold. i could pop out a blank one for you that you can make a mount for. I cut a slit in the cover where the bottom screw would go and put a metal tab into the frame where the screw seats so that the tab slides into the slit in the cover.

Face Mask
I found a face mask that works great. its compatible with eyeglasses, which is a bonus. and it is symmetrical in design. that means that you dont have to worry about fuddling about in the cold trying to decide which end is up. they are also available in a variety of colors and materials. 100% machine washable.

Private number plates, what are they like.

osborne getting old.
Every day since MAY, I have seen the same news about how Osborne hurt his wrist and may be blah blah blah.... is there no other news out there that has to do with yamahas? or is there no one in charge of new write ups? perhaps they are just not on it? really. i mean. dude. shoot, i would love to see new features there. maybe members rides pictures. or other news stories. just something ELSE. someone has to know. im more curious than anything.

start by stripping and cleaning your carb. clean all the jets. check the float height while yer in there and then check and clean the air filter.

dt 125
i believe that the existing road legal 2 strokers would grandfather out, just like older cars without smog equip. although its possible that you could get pulled by a cop if its really smoking bad. until they see that its a 2 stroke. even older cars in america that are smog exempt still will get a fixit ticket if they are smoking like the car in uncle buck.

dt headlight
ok, on my old 74 dt175 heres how the lighting circuit works. the power goes thru the headlamp, then the headlamp earths thru the pilot bulb on the speedo case. and the speedo case is earthed via the speedo cable. sounds strange i know, but my headlamp will not light if the pilot bulb had a bad connection. check that. so, if i have a burned out headlamp, my pilot bulb wont light. if i have a bad pilot light earthing point on the spedo case, the headlight wont work. im gonna side with cynic. check your headlamp. then wiggle the rubber boot that holds in the pilot bulb to the speedo. go from there. try un plugging the bulb, and using bits of wire swap around the low/high beam filiament leads. that way you can switch back into low beam and the high beam will light. if things work like that you know for sure its the bulb. especially if you switch to high and everything goes off.
