dt 175 mod
it would liven up a quiet moment. Mine has a SM tailpipe though the sticker is long gone, as a matter of fact I think you could get the with different badges at some stage. SM was Serval Marketing, just a name on a badge, as in made by someone else. Back to the topic I can get a full set up imported for £34 inc postage sounds good to me...?

need fix for front wheel with buckle
I wouldnt start trying to make all the spokes ring the same, that will only ever happen with a perfectly straight and true rim in my opinion

TTR250 Raid (1992) No engine Number
I think they are wrong, its an import and in Japan they only put the model code (from what I understand). member 'Cynic' has this same situation on his TDR20. Thinking about it sensibly though wont the DVLA documents agree with this. And another question...what if the crankcase was damaged and replaced? i'm sure the dealer couldnt stamp the number and you would probably end up with just the code like yours has.

Petrol Tank
No idea but is there any way you can find out the part numbers for comparison?

need fix for front wheel with buckle
Like I said before, 1: first mark the spoke with the weight on 2: Remove weight 3: find where the wheel settles as just discussed 4: Fit the weight to the spoke at the top when wheel settled 5: This should be the marked spoke by the way or it was weighted on the wrong spoke 6: You can in fact repeat the test with the weight in place now to check it is the right amount of weight

need fix for front wheel with buckle
LOL youre doing it wrong. Hold the wheen on the axle (weight removed)...it will have a heavy spot thet will always come to rest at the bottom. No need to spin it, just rotate it each way 1/4 turn and let go

Thats interesting, and a neat job too. I toyed with this idea but didnt make the connection to another manifold that would fit. Keep your eye open for one for me plz Oh by the way that would be a SM silencer S&M is something quite different

ignition problems
hang on...what about the reason why, you were a bit over anxious that you didnt get an immediate answer doring a working day? cant you see what Drewpy meant? I'll say it again, nobody knows the answer or you would have got one...that is no reason to put up posts like'????????'...an obvious sign if impatience and frustration and it's un-called for. Its a modern bike and there is no expert posting here often about this bike, if you learn something perhaps you fill that space You say you expect help after all the help you have given...you only made 9 posts FFS, you tell Cynic to get off your thread...let me tell you that Guy has helped hundreds of people but doesnt suffer fools for long I can tell you a member here is is very up to speed with these bikes, a German member goes by the name X FISH

need fix for front wheel with buckle
if youre going to that trouble, mark the spoke with the weight and remove it (weight), do the test then fit the weight to the spoke always at the top...is it the marked spoke because it should be.

Neos yn50 won't rev
bit vague, how do you know its not blocked? any way you can remove the silencer
-
Neos yn50 won't rev
could the exhaust be blocked? any way of removing the silencer and checking?
-
need fix for front wheel with buckle
If its hard to see 1: you should be able to do it with a spoke key 2; I wouldnt expect it to cause any nervousness (shimmering) ? Maybe its out of balance, lift the wheel off the ground and does the wheel always turn to the same spot? brake drag can interfere with this test though and it is best done with wheel out if you have that. What about tyre pressure too, low pressure especially in the front can cause trouble as can play in the swing arm bearing

Neos yn50 won't rev
me neither, is it a little 2 stroke scooter twist and go jobbie Dave? Can you give a little more detail on the fuel delivery to the carb...are you 100% happy with that? is it a vacuum operated tap or not?
-
need fix for front wheel with buckle
How bad is it though, any flat spots or just a little out of true? The latter could be improved with a spoke key I suppose but if badly buckled you would need to have a hydraulic press to straighten it
