Hello I have a TY175 and I need some more info on the front and rear mudguards: FRONT The front guard was a after market one which was broken but held in place by the usual chrome up and over twin looped support, the bike came with a good used Yamaha mudguard which attaches to the 4 bolts on the fork legs, should I use the the chrome support and the good used mudguard combined or not bother with the chrome support, im not sure which was fitted from the factory or whether I have some TY250 bits mixed into the bike? It's not the most original of bikes... REAR The rear guard was also broken so I have a OK used one to put on, its the genuine Yamaha type, under it was a metal bracket that is very rotten, can I bin the bracket and just use the mudguard or is the bracket essential? Do the cheaper after market rear guards not fit a TY175 very well or is it that they are just a bit short at the leading end? Thanks in advance for any help!

Am i wrong but is a TY250 twin shock tank made of alloy? Im only asking as i have a TY175 with a dented steel tank and i need to get another so IF a TY250 is alloy and IF it fits and IF its lighter then this could be a good idea? Am I wrong? Also, do rock shock rear shocks have a locking ring at the top to stock the adjuster turning in use? mine hasn't? Thanks Owen

is that 35mm yokes that you are selling or just something i could do myself? im interested in gettting this project moving along

Hello i need to get some TY250 forks as the pile of bits i bought did not have any, its a 1974 TY250 twinshock, does any one know the total length of the forks so i can try to find some off a TY or another bit OR is there a conversion from another model with or without yokes that i could use? any help would be great, thanks

So save me the mistake and explain.. whats the difference between the DT and TY engine? help

HELLO Is a TY250 twinshock engine the same as a DT250 engine, if not what is the difference? So if not, what other bikes have the same engine as the TY or a engine that will fit (different cc etc) thanks Owen
