TT500 rear wheel
« on: January 03, 2011, 10:48:30 pm »
I've just acquired [at considerable expense] a 1981 Dick Mann Mark 4 yamaha 500
 It's in sound race nick, not concours.
It has an XT rear wheel and I'd like to get a lighter TT one
Does anyone know if the two use the same spindle and sprocket, and also what the TT part number is and if this wheel was used in anything else?
cheers
Jez

The talk I hear is that the Cush Drive rear wheel is better for the gearbox if your running a hot motor.

As for the hub, you can find one from....

Rear Hub
Part # = 483-25311-13-98
Part Description = HUB,REAR
Model Count = 22

 I did wonder about that
The DR400T retained the cushdrive. This motor is good. The guy before raced it with some success and reckoned it had to have a 540 kit at the very least. I'll leave the wheel alone and buy a case saver.
