That chain guide looks trick also, is it a one off fabrication or a direct bolt on from something modern? Need one for my mx250.

that looks like it could be my kinda thing.
thanks for the heads up fella's!
now i know what to do with it, i can probably fab one up at work.
cheers!

  if you get it right give us the heads up ill buy ine :O), the trick is to clear the sprocket and also to get the leverage point right, the rest is just lining up the holes

Hi from Johns:-

The headlight brackets are correct on the RT2. Used to work on these old girls.

Hi lads,

I thought I'd post a few photos of my mighty RT2 - its finally registered and is running on the road.
I managed to find a correct clutch actuator and get the gearing sorted out.
It runs really well and leaves that lovely blue haze through the city!

The only slight thing I need to sort out is the carby settings at a very small throttle opening - maybe just 1/8 throttle. It seems to blubber and hunt back and forwards, but other than that it runs pretty cleanly as it has all new innards in the Mikuni.
I assume its the idle jet that is the problem or the settings. Does anyone have any advice on sorting it out?

Here are the photos:






I'll be taking it to CD5 as my pit bike - and a legal pit bike at that...

Cheers,
Mark.

Sweet resto.  well done !

I'm wondering if anyone has a resource to buy these?  I have 2 Yammies in need of a device like this.  It is a "pivot arm" to replace the OEM nylon clutch actuator.

YEs been loking into them for a while now, can be bought out of usA, BUT HAVE GIVEN A PROTOYPRE TO pETE hOEY AND HE IS LOOKING INTO BUILDING SOME.   

there are a few differant versions out there but they all work on the flat bar and hinged rod set up, if your not into details you can make one yourself out of steel , the money costs in these is the alloy versions, the only other problem is the provision to fit a sprocket cover to make it racing legal, but there is a work around and a mounting cover can be made to still get the clearance.
