Can you still buy oem plastic from yamaha for the triz?

[Yamahauler]

You can still buy rear fenders from Yamaha
Shrouds can be bought from Aussieduner (they're really sweet)
Front fender can be bought from maier,
and no one makes a replacement headlight

wow have fun with that project. looks like it will clean up good though

[Air-cooled-R]

That'll prolly be a sweet bike when *Edited* clean it up!

[Yamahauler]

Woa, looks like you need a new jug. Is the whole bike there or are there many parts missing?

Where in canada are you from?

[RCGUY]

I looked at it some last night and the plastics are good they just have a coat of black paint on them and the frame is very good not much rust or anything . the only things missing that i konw of so far are the head light and grab bar but im sure i'll find more stuff missing when i start working on it .
The jug is no good as you can see the pice is missing and there is a crack that goes back to where the intake bolts on , i don't know how it happened cause the guy i got it from said it was like that when he got it.
yamahauler i'm from nova scotia.

if you need the headlight mount i got one for you!

[smokinp]

nice find...do you have any big plans for it....???

[RCGUY]

My plans are to get it runing and work out any problems that come up and then tear it down and repaint everthing and make it look good then it will most likely get stored away because i have a bad habbit of losing interest in my trikes after i have all the work done . here are some better pic's

The rear is still avaliable from Yamaha.You mite want to try an Yamaha Nos front fender as well.If you would like one.

[Bryan Raffa]

I was told that the front fender was discontinued so i had to go with maire. Its alot stronger than nos, i like it better.

[Bigred200]

[Bryan Raffa]
