I rode about a 1977 MX360 for awhile...I remember it as sort of squirly with good top end hp, close gears, sort of like the DT series that was on its way to be...
The '79 MX 175 is a stripped version of the dual sport DT 175 . It's really not an MX bike , but , if casual trail riding is your thing , they are ok . They...
Lee it sounds like you worked in a Yamaha bike store or shop I wonder what that bike was that I rode. It was a friends bike and it was white, and I had just...
I mediated and thought back to those days..... It was not a white paint scheme, I mixed it up with the TT500 he also rode, which was a one lung 4 stroke The...
hi yes ,if it is the same as this one in http://www.bikepics.com/yamaha/dt175/81/pics.asp look at stevos ,this is my 7th one they are brilliant 2 strokes steve...
Yep , I've worked in Yamaha shops . I've pretty much owned them since about '74 ....still have a couple . What your friend might have had , was , a '75 MX250 ....
The silver colored 360 without lights would be a '73 model MX 360 . Fred Mitchel <fmit490@...> wrote: I mediated and thought back to those days..... It...
Try Harber's cycle salvage in Viola , AR. . He has some older IT parts . The CDI box and stator should be the same from '77-'79 . Ask for Dennis . If you don't...
Stator is correct . I'm not sure , but I believe that the DT125/175 '77-81 is pretty much the same one as the IT 175 '77-83 . You can go onto the Yamaha USA...
I have had this bike for a very long time, but I need to get it running again for the nephews to ride. It is weird, I used to ride it years ago, but I dont...
On a bike like that the pod filter will probably make it really lean. If you have the stock airbox I would use it. Don't believe anything you read or see in...
Wow- there are some surprising deals on this site- in fact the prices are quite out of this world! http://www.siegecraftnw.com/qvmx.htm also ...Christmas is...
Thanks for the reply, I will push that tube out of the carb (emulsion tube looking thing?), I did not remove it at the time I cleaned up the carb. I am...
I found the site, thanks! ... (emulsion ... know ... in ... parts ... so ... gap ... Are ... bike ... time ... up ... the ... is ... a ... off ... I ... going ...
That's the needle jet/nozzle that you are talking about. You'll want to make sure the pilot jet and circuit are very clean also. With the pilot jet out you...
Hi all, have posted a photo of the 465 in its 'almost finished' state, just needing its wheels done and its transfers to be finished. the savvy amongst you...
Well, I am cleaning everything again and I removed the "248-14141-28- 00 NOZZLE, MAIN (N-8)" but when I did I messed up the inner threads where the "SETTER,...
I don't know what the threads are but you should be able to measure the thread on the main jet to find out. You could check with Sudco on a replacement...
Well I cleaned the carb again, changed the slow jet to the factory spec and went back to the original needle as it was the correct one and the one from the...
I usually try to fix what I know is wrong first when I have an unknown problem and it sounds like you know the coil is wrong. The coils are just that - a coil...
My guess is that either the float is set too low and continually has the fuel shut off, or the float valve is plugged with something you did not see, or, the...
If the fuel line is not filling with fuel, but, flows freely when disconnected from the carb, there must be a blockage in the carb. Either the carb is still...
g-day have u taken the plug out to see weather its still getting the fuel, also have u tryed it with out the fuel fillter it may be restricting the flow and...
Thanks guys, I think you can sense my frustrations. This bike must run, it has to, I will not give in. Stator: I know the bike has worked with that coil,...
Close enough it is white and does not have a front Disc brake. I will be picking up next week and will ride it just to get a feel for it. I am sure it is...
Ive done everything I could think of doing to this crby but nothing seems to change,It runs for about 5 seconds then it dies.I cant figure it out and I need it...
Turn that carb over make sure the float is level. Check those pilot passaways. Clean the main jet. Make sure that tank isn't plugged. Make sure the gas is...
