turbofurball Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I said mine will have cost £2500 by the time it's finished, because eventually it'll be full Majesty / modernised with no stone left unturned (The frame goes off to powder coating tomorrow! Woo!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot taco Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 Have a look at this one.Pretty darn nice,but I am surprised at what price it is bid up to. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1976-Yamaha-TY175-/272814698146?hash=item3f8505eea2:g:3xgAAOSwxzBZmlP6&vxp=mtr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bashplate Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 Nice standard looking TY....but the price is a bit 'out there' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Taff Posted August 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) Well I've bought a scruffy yamaha TY 250 mono for £700 , pick it up this week so will let you know how it is.

scot taco Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 That doesn,t look too bad.I had a 350 and other than the awkward kick start I really liked it.The only reason I sold it was because pistons were near impossible to get at the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 That looks good, it's not like the chains all rusty etc ... best to start on something that's not all shiny anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fr the money it don't ook bad. I will tidy it up over the winter. I just want something to ride and lean on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 I second that ... I'm up to my elbows in resto-modding my TY, if I didn't have my Gasgas to wail on I'd have been despondant by now. Also, trials in winter are great fun (apart from the odd bit when you sink up to your hubs in mud, etc) and an essential part of the experience 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
