TS185 and TC100 bits.
« on: June 01, 2008, 09:35:48 pm »
Bits needed to suit 1974 TS185L:

Rear spoke set, or good complete rear wheel.
Exhaust heat shield.
Front guard (orange).
Chain guard.
Seat cover (pending Pokey's success in finding contact details).
Blinkers x4.
Mirrors x2.
Tail-light mount. (I have the light itself).
Chrome rear mudguard.

/\ All of these parts have to be in good or better condition.

\/ All of these bits have to be in decent, useable condition (or better).

Bits needed to suit TC100:

Both plastic side covers.
Blinkers x4.
Mirrors x2.
Chrome front mudguard.
Original clutch lever.

the TC100 front guard has a tubular support bracket,do you have that piece?

and the blinkers,do they screw into the front headlight brackets?
the blinkers are the chrome rounded type,but are the lenses the short type or the longer ones?

may have some for you,will have to dig them out to assess the condition.

is your 185 tail light the round one?

Thanks Brad.

Gorby, The blinkers do screw into the headlight brackets. Don't know what type they should be - and for the TC, I don't mind if they're not the exact right ones.

I've got the tubular bracket for the TC front guard, but it's a bit bent. I'm pretty sure I can straighten it, but a straight one would be nice too.

TS tail light is round with orange reflectors on the side. Looks identical to a DT250A one (might actually be a DT item?).

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

I have a couple of those seat covers from the same guy
I purchased them for a TM250 74/75 but it does not fit
I thought they may fit TM250 72/73 cost $30.00 each

Nathan go for a TS125er or TS185er (maybe TS100er even) rear wheel. These are a solid mount sprocket and replace the crappy cush drive setups. Unless of course you're resto'ing  ;)

I'm restoing. :)

Funnily enough, I bought a DT175A wreck the previous weekend, and only go around to unloading it a couple of hours before Jim arrived with the TS.
The DT had an odd rear wheel, which turns out to be the same as the TS185... So if I have to build up a wheel, I can now do it without pulling the original wheel apart.

fancy wrecking a perfectly good wheel by fitting it to a yamaha! ;D That TS125R that Quicky posted a link to would be the ducks guts for a resto. Near all there and in quite good unbastardized condition. For $500 buy it now if you spent another $500 you'd have a nice little bike ;D 'all' the TM stuff bolts onto them as well  ;)
