1989 YZ250 Rear Brake Return Spring

[badbowie]

Hi Guys,

Trying to locate the hole in my freshly powdercoated frame where the rear brake return spring mounts to.

Short of removing all the paint I was hoping someone may be able to provide a photo of a similar year/model yamaha to give me a bit of an idea where to start digging with the scriber.

Thanks is advance.

next to the swing arm pivot bolt there is a tag with a hole in it.

Thanks it looks like that tag has been broken off on my bike.

You can drill a small hole in the approx position you think it should be in the frame where the swingarm bolt seats on the lower flat edge, some bikes are like that from factory, I have a 93 RM125 like that, or try one of these, dunno if only Hammerhead do em or others also   https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Hammerhead+brake+spring&biw=1920&bih=989&espv=2&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjL6JKht_7PAhWCKZQKHdlXAl4QsAQIGg

I'm thinking along the same lines of drilling a small hole in the frame, my alloy frame WR450's brake return spring attaches to a small hole in the frame near the swingarm pivot bolt. I'm thinking something the same as it.
