Thanks for the help guys. I did print some stuff off years ago for the 250 from CZ madness but it went with the bike. 

Looking for what the std front and rear sprockets were for the '73  380. Currently has 13/52.  Running off the book you kindly put up Tony that looks like standard for the 380.  Thanks so much.
Cheers

Maico / 1977 FORKS HOW TO GET DAMPER RODS APART

« on: September 07, 2023, 06:28:39 am »

Hi Guys,

            How do I get the damper rods apart on my AW?  I want to add PD valves but need to reduce the preload. I'm told that we need to shorten the alloy spacer that sits within the damper rod. I take it I need to get the alloy screw/nut cap that screws up into the fork leg. But it is on hard.

If anyone has fitted PD valves be good to get their views on the how too and oil specs etc.

Many thanks

Pete

CZ / 1973 PARTS BOOK

Hi Guys,

Did a 73 250 a few years ago. Now doing a 73 380. The 250 has gone to a new owner.

I am looking for the parts book to check for missing or odd bits on the 380.

Is it possible to down load an electronic copy from somewhere?

Kind regards

Yamaha / Re: IT 250 K AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY ?

« on: July 25, 2020, 08:23:36 am »

Thanks Momus and Woody,

Victor from Heaven called me yesterday. He has IT and YZ 250's and said the metal plate goes up against the plastic cage. I looked at the sandwich idea but soon realised the stiff metal plate would not conform to the airbox shape. And when I think of it I can't remember ever seeing an air filter that didn't butt up against an air box to make a good seal.

Thanks for the help

Yamaha / IT 250 K AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY ?

« on: July 24, 2020, 01:20:38 pm »

Guys I need advice on fitting up the air filter on a 1983 IT 250 K.

It has a cage with 2 x 6mm threaded bolts attached to it, the foam filter and the bit I have the problem with a pressed metal ring the same shape as filter cage.

Where does that pressed metal bit go?

ie Onto the cage then put the filter over both OR put the filter on the cage then the metal bit over the to, basically sandwiching the foam filter between the cage and the pressed metal thing.

I have asked two Yamaha IT YZ owners close to me and neither had any idea.

Thanks in advance

Pete

Kawasaki / KLX 250 Standard Needle or replacement

« on: June 09, 2019, 03:13:37 pm »

Afternoon guys,

KLX used at Braidwood VTR the other week pinged due to lean neeedle.

Owners manual says it should be a a Mikuni  Jet Needle  6H2-2.

Not whats in it. Had a look on Mukunioz but couldn't find it.  I heard it might be a `special' .

What can be used as a standard replacement needle?

Kind regards

Pete

Hi guys,

Is there a replacement or oem plastic chain buffer for the KLX 250 around anywhere. I had one in the Cart in the USA then I checked with an email and they said Oh no we don't have them.

Cheers for any help
