Clutch basket 1981 YZ 465 H

Where do i get one?
Do i ask Speed and Sport in USA ( geniune ) or is there a mob in the UK that makes aftermarket ones?
X-treme vintage YZ don`t list one on their website

Forget genuine unless you can get a decent used one or NOS, remembering that the all have the same weaknessor try here...

Hi Ted,
I dunno, we go to all the trouble of putting things in VMX Parts & Products and you guys don't even read it.

Issue 30 had the listing for a billet clutch hub for the YZ465. The cost £90 from OSR Parts in the UK. Their web site is: www.osrparts.co.uk

I have seen the quality of their parts and they are 1st rate. Have a look and go from there.
Good luck,
VMX42

Hi Ted,
Sorry, but when you contact them can you tell them you saw it in VMX. Good to give them some positive feedback.
good luck.

VMX42....I sent an e-mail ( to enquire about availability ) to enquiries@osrparts ( as requested on their website ) and it goes to yamahakid105@hotmail and a Scott Sears replies...... No, I have heard of them being available by someone else but i don`t have any contact info. Then he rattles on about knowing how to convert my clutch to a 490 clutch and it is very expensive blah blah blah contact him if i want it done

My question is OSR parts still up and running?

Hi Ted,
Ah the joys of the internet. Sorry can't add anything. I just logged onto their site and it does list other methods of contact. All I can suggest is that you try to fax or phone.
It could just be a faulty link on their site that they aren't aware of.
good luck,
VMX42

I just noticed that they list Maico Spares as a retail outlet, perhaps contacting them will shed some light on the mystery.
