    Well if you had a YZ it would be easier! Not that that helps I know these guys have them for the YZ, might be worth a call to see if they can make you up a set. http://www.mxm.co.uk/motocross_makes/yamaha.html Ebay have some older ones for sale, so might be worth just keep checking. Otherwise carefully draw them up on Illustrator and have them cut out of vinyl. I know that they wont be the originals but if thats all you can get.

    I know that you can buy reverse kits not sure if they do one or not for your bike. Have you checked with your dealer?

    Well the museum got back to me, after Alan and filled me in, but heres what they said. The Neracar was created by Carl A Neracher, built by the Ner-A-Car Corporation in Syracuse, New York in 1921 and also in Sheffield, England later that year. Carl Neracher acquired a patent for the Neracar in the USA in 1919 and with financing help from razor maker King C. Gillette began production two years later. The Neracar was aimed at people who wanted a comfortable vehicle but couldn't afford a car. And was advertised as "300 miles for a dollar" and 85-100 miles to a gallon and a speed of 35mph. It featured a single cylinder 13.5 (221cc) cubic inch engine and used friction drive by means of a fabric coated wheel rubbing a flywheel which causes friction and in turn creates motion and a lever to slide the wheel to different positions for changing ratios and acting as different gears (three speed). Also unique to the Neracar was the center hub steering system. The British Neracar also known as the Sheffield Simplex version, as it was made under license by the Simplex Luxury Carmaker in Sheffield, England. It featured a larger engine 285cc two-stroke, and in 1925 was upgraded to a 350cc engine, known as the Blackburne and Model C. While the American version engine size was increased to 15.5 cubic inch in 1924 and was known as the Model B. The Ner-A-Car corporation stopped making Neracar's in the USA, after the 1924 production model, due to lack of popularity. Production also ceased in England in 1926 after a new luxurious and expensive hybrid model failed, the company closed it's motorcycle division .
  24. Well mine was when i used to race motorcross. I had stripped and rebuilt the engine on my CR250 and just could get it started. By now it was late in the evening and couldnt wait any longer for my Dad. So i decided to tow it, unfortunatly for me i was too impatient. So asked my Grandad to tow me down our lane. However... The bike started up no problem after about 20 metres, but my Grandad forgot he was towing me and just kept going! By this time im shouting and swearing at him to stop, but he still hasnt realised and is still listening to talk fecking radio, about women with period pain. I can see some of my girl friends walking down the road, and luckily in a way my grandad realised who they were and stopped to say hello. Now at last my grandad realised what he had done, waved out the window to me and decided to do a U turn. Dragging the bike on its side and pulling me down the road for about 5m before i fell off, and he just kept going for about 100m completely fecking up all the plastics and frame on my poor bike! In front of my dream girl and her mates... I wanted to kill him!!!!
