Yamaha gurus - dont have zedder here. Foot break pedal for the Yamaha YZB - is it common with anything else - I need to look for one and so far the supply is extremely limited. Also - and this was a while ago I heard mentioned - I believe the MX400B airbox also fits the YZB - can anyone confirm?
Thanks guys
Rossco
-
Yes and yes
-
damm your quick Freaky or Im slow (like my riding ) Rosco got the brake leaver if you need one . Iain
-
Iain - thanks - I will take it - PM me with hoiw much you would like and how to pay and will shoot it across.
Thanks for that - much appreciated.
Now - don't have an air box as well do you ;D
-
Ross !!!

thanks Bill.

thanks as always gents.

Ross !!!
You can use the YZC or MXB 250/400.You can use the YZA too,you just need to trim a little off the rear corners.

MXB or YZC big boy....I think...send Les Ritchers a email at VMX Unlimited....he probably has one.
-
thanks girls. Yes had a look at VMXunlimited and they have YZA and YZC hence the question ;D
So again thanks for letting me know - now where are the bank account details :D
-
OK - back again. Bought my last seat cover from Ecological investments in NZ - who it appears no longer exist - so where is everyone buying their seat covers from now?
thanks ;D
-
I got my trimmer too make a gripper cover for my YZ250A and I wouldnt go back to a slider /smooth cover now.....my 250B will get the same treatment.

thanks - they didn't have YZB covers before so sent them my old one as a template.
cheers
-
Ross there is a guy in the US does YZA for $30 fit well and good stencil.
Find out how much this guy will do them for in NZ, and give me a price i need some more A and B's
he only shows the 125 on the web site....

John did your trimmer have the gripper fabric in stock or did he have to order it in? My upholsterer is bloody good but he didn't know what I was talking about when I asked if he could use a gripper type material. If it needs to be ordered, do you know what it's called mate?
-
I can find out for you Mark....i'll send a sample aswell....going there toomorrow.

Thanks John.....any update on the YZ-A clutch actuators?
-
My NOS one arrived today and he's got it already....just have to work out the pattern on the sprocket cover so it looks the part. ;D
-
I''l have one, I'll have one, I'll have one ;D
-
I''l have one, I'll have one, I'll have one ;D
me too . Iain ;D
-
just a bump Davey - to make sure we don't lose the thread.
cheers
-
I'll be seeing what he's done toomorrow Ross....dont panic Mr Manwearing...
-
be good if the cover was the same shape as th eoriginal but we have to 5mm tapped tabs on the sprocket side edge so we can attatch a plastic cover for racing.
-
my only panic is in ensuring your business success ;D
Ooooh - tomorrow - I am excited now!!!!
-
First ones getting machined Monday Ross.
-
thanks John - much appreciated.
-
how did it go John?
-
Ross why do you need one.
I heard you are too scared to catch your skirt in the chain anyway,even with a guard. ;D ;D
-
what can I say Craigy - that won't get me into trouble - you is a wanker!
I am always on the lookout for bling - goes with my latest frock - and besides that if you saw what I am using currently to get me through scrutineering you would blush!
-
Still waiting big boy.....cant push him to hard......its getting closer by the day.
-
fair enough ;D
-
sorry for the delay here goes.
didnt have an allen key with me to take the cover off, but is a 4 helix with a metal male and a plastic female. just bolted up in the same holes with 2x 4/5mm bolts and nuts where the little coverused to mount into.
also think the female outside was cut down a little as it didnt need all the thread as it stuck out.

is the pipe on the MXB also a 2 piece unit like the YZB? Does the lower section straight out of the barrell fit the YZ if so?
cheers
-
The peice wont fit on the barrell Ross, the rest is pretty much the same, looked at the proto type for the clutch actuator this morning....looks good, he's making the helix for the cover aswell as a bolt in and it will run a XS650 male push lever with the 1T3 p/n....cheap as chips and with the longer arm should have a clutch pull light as a feather, I'm hoping to have the first one to try this afternoon. It's a head fark but will be the ducks guts when finished.
-
firstly - bugga!!
Secondly - good news John. Does the XS push lever fit straight on or need mods? Or were the mods to the cover side which you are incorporating anyway?
Have my DG swingarm in the queue - giving the beastie a birthday whilst it is so long between rides. Also going to incoporate a more modern enclosed chain guide with the swingarm so won't have any dramas there also - make the most of the opportunity.
-
I wont know if I need to shorten the helix untill we do a dummy run......but it wont look like Freaky's shitfight. ;D
-
it works..... and you guys had to start somewhere.
-

i think you have to just change the inzee pipe fitting to the outzee fitting at the spigot.
-
I'll translate that for you Ross "The YZB pipe spigot goes over the outside of the flange, whereas the MXB spigot goes on the inside"....it's Friday and it's hot.....dont know what Freaky's excuse is though....South Australian? ;D
-
but we still love him ::)
-
Inzee outzee like a belly button, prity simple explanation I thought
-
How's this (http://i1134.photobucket.com/albums/m612/Iain_Cameron/KGrHqRHJBQEJdKq72BP0DqM2fQ60_3.jpg)
-
Thats good but the one to use has a longer arm on it so the clutch pull will be 1 finger (hopefully)....we are making the plastic screw part and that will come with it. If you have that one, how long is the male helix? Cheers.
-
I havn't bought it Davey (yet ) at $30 is it worth the convert required ?
-
Hopefully toomorow Ill have the first one....theres lots of little hiccups with the cover. The long one is about $30 NOS on ebay so dont panic.

This is the first prototype in plastic, the yellow on the botton of the cover wiil have that section removed, its too close to the gear lever. The real ones will be made from 6061 alloy. The clutch feel even with the plastic flexing is way more positive and the lever returns very snappy like a modern bike. There will be a cover for the adjuster. The clutch pull is way lighter, I dont know what they where thinking when they made the originals. Tell me your thoughts fellas.

-
Looks great!!! ;D
-
Excellent! Assume the top is open so there is no interference with the chain at full travel?
When and how much?
Cheers
-
Wow it looks great . put me down for three . Iain
-
Fantastic, even better than I'd imagined. Put me down for at least two, possibly four.
-
That reversed fitting looks familiar..... ian it works.
If your taking the bottom section out then take the right end section out otherwise it's going to look unbalanced.
Can you incorporate a threaded section or ability to take one for the lover cable outer.
Can you creat a case saver or derailer in the top section so the chain can't Spool up in to the clutch rod, even if you make it alloy backed onto the mag so we can weld a plate in there and put a hole in the flat for the clutch rod to pass through.
The shape of the 2mx is the perfect design to follow as the shape cover everything and room for the gear lever. D you have one or seen one ? Suss one out
-
Davey - looks good - big isn't it ;D
One question - since the sprocket cover is so important - is it OK with such a large open area?
Also - Yam Gurus - does anyone have a spare LH crank seal they would be prepared to sell - I am struggling to find one. Have a RH on the way though?
Part number 93103-30044-00.
Cheers
-
I reckon next years Nats will see a dozen of these on bikes ;D
-
Crank seal should be the same as the Dt1 etc same across the board, I just buy them in a pack think you get the six seals for $50
-
Your probably right the open areas at the back would get a lot of shit stuck in there like sticks and stuff. I'd be inclined to close those down in size and shape
-
but where from freaky - I use the part number to search which is across a range of bikes and can't find this one? So if you know where you can buy a pack please let me know?
-
No don't search the single part search Dt1 seals they sell them on a carded pack, cost about fifty bucks by the time they get here. If you get stuck I have some paks here
-

Be careful with some of those NOS seals those card packs that come up on eBay. I've bought a couple that were so old and hard I wouldn't use them, other times they've been just fine. I guess it's a pig in a poke with this old stuff.

There all new the one I have been getting are remakes at worst ten year old stock others on the clear cards are new rubber remakes . I have snapped the one above that gives the sizes and oem part numbers printed on the card for your reference
-
thanks Freaky
-
mrs superdeals has them on US Evilbay all the time about $35 us
-
Saw a DT/RT motor a while back where the guy had--had the mag side case sleeved to reduce the outer diameter so as to be able to use a readily available seal, not sure if he'd done the right side also but probably. Suppose that doesn't help sort the clutch pushrod seal but maybe the same could apply if a common seal is found.
-
thanks Guys - Iain - have stumbled on mrs superdeals late last night - see how I go.
cheers
-
OTH i have a stack of clutch push rod seals if you need them ?
-
Thanks Freakshow, i'll get in touch sometime. All the best.
-
On US evilbay now .http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-Oil-Seal-Kit-360-RT360-RT1-RT2-RT3-Engine-1969-1970-1971-1972-1973-/360503386191?hash=item53efad204f&item=360503386191&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr

-
yep thats the guy i have been gettign them from, think his name si andrew. only issue with them is the postage seems to cost more form canadia and also take like a month. seriously they still use boat mail. i though he had lost mine, 2 month later they turned up....... so dont panic if they take a while. but yes this guy is great service and the seals are good too have them in allmy bikes and never had a DNF or failure
-
