Yamaha 3 wheeler owners Club

[Yamada]

I thought it would be cool to create a thread with all the owners of a Yamaha trike. Please tell us what machine(s) you own and include pictures if you want. I'm gonna edit the first post with all the member who join the club.
Also with the new forum, we now have an official group:

[old-yellow]

I own a 1982 yamaha tri-moto 125 with a 175 front end, boysen power reeds and a wiseco piston. I do not have a current picture of it but I will try and get one posted up as soon as I can.

[Vealmonkey]

the great gazoo has a 1980 yt125 with a 175 front end on it. I have the 83 yt175 with the Pro Tec kit and a currently very disassembled aftermarket front end on it. The Tecate Kid has a yt175 with a Pro Tec suspension on it that he is building. And there are a bunch of others.

[TriMotoMan]

I have a 1983 yt 125 with yt 175 front forks a costum front axle and an atc110 front hub assembly, home made seat, and a yt 200 black front fender

i also own a yamaha trizinger wich is also black she runs but needs some work

[225dxyamaha]

I got a 1984 (im not sure) yamaha 225DX shaft drive.

[250rulzes]

I have a blue, red, and yellow trizinger and each has a front fender that's not cracked! yt60's rock...

[225dxyamaha]

haha if you look at mine its f-ed to the max. Now finding a new one thats in decent condition can be tough! ANYONE WITH A YELLOW YAMAHA 225DX FRONT FENDER FOR SALE PLEASE PM ME. It makes my trike look like a piece of sh!t with it all smashed up and being held together by a license plate holding it together underneath!(piece of advise: NEVER let immature 19 yr old cousins drive your trike). He also messed up well completely broke off the left hand brake lever. ANYONE selling that as well?

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

(1) 1984 yt60 , very nice shape
(1)1985 "klemm research" piped tri-z , with a 1983 ported powervalved engine, dg pipe on in the pic, and dirty at that!

I think the front fender is still available. 1 years ago bikebandit still listed a ytm-200 front fender for $50 I believe.

Thank you guys to join the fun and maybe the Honda guys will be jealous....

[tecat-z]

Here's a few pics of my 86's. The one in the yard i've had for many years and it's stock other than exhaust, reeds and 1st overbore. Been to TF since 05. Always runs great. The other bike is the project and is in my garage attic. But it's is close to being done. There will be many very nice parts on this one, and it should run pretty good too......:naughty:

[yamaha_ripper98]

[Vealmonkey]

Oh, I almost forgot to see if this counts. I have a Hi Performance ATC frame with full suspension that has a yamaha RD350 engine in it, but it is not fully assembled. Does this give me any special privaleges in the club!

[Shawn72]

This is my 86Z. Brought her back to life from a rusty grave.

[Yamada]

I think I need to accept it. You are probably the only one with one of those. Do you plan to reassemble it? Basically has long has there a Yamaha frame or engine I am gonna accept it. So this leave place for the dirtbike conversion and others...
Concerning your privaleges, I'm gonna put your name in the list in bold and italic character.:D

[trike moto]

I have a 1984 ytm225dx that has a rare supertrapp full exhaust system, web .395/.395 lift cam, wiseco10.25:1 piston, k&n air box eliminator kit and a custom "home" made grab bar. trying to find a bigger carb that will work with my set up?? this is a old pic will post new one this after noon

What up with your 1987 YTM 225 DR??? Never heard of a '87 Yamaha trike...

I know, i was wondering when i found it. The built date in 06/1986.
It was sold as a 87 model and it also said 1987 on the immatriculation.
That is why i drove 1400 kms (870milles) to pick it up.
I saw an other 87 DR for sale a few months ago in Ontario.
It is exactly inendicale to a 1986.
the wheels and the front fork are gold in color.

Probably a 86 left-over that the seller sold in 87? Gold forks should looks good.

[the great gazoo]

I own a 1982 yamaha tri-moto 125 with a 175 front end, boysen power reeds and a wiseco piston. I do not have a current picture of it but I will try and get one posted up as soon as I can.

Did you install the Boyesen power reeds, or did the YT125 come with them? I'm wondering how much difference they make performance/power wise?
Also, are you running the stock exhaust?

[old-yellow]

I installed them and noticed that it made it have more throttle response at low end but I don't know if it gave it more power at top end or not and yes I am running stock exhaust.

[atctim]

I own just one Yamaha - unsure on year - but it is a Tri-Zinger in Sky Blue. Pretty fun little ride.

[Yamada]

There is still a lot of people who didn't join the club. I am sure a lot of people are proud of owning a Yamaha trike.

[clutchcargo]

I have 2 Tri-z's. An 85 yellow/black and an 85-1/2 project.

[ATCeeya]

There should be some STICKYS on this forum with post pics of your Tecates, post pics of your yamahas, post pics of your hondas,post pics of your beaters, post pics of your 70's etc . So a major pic thread is always at the top and can be added to and viewed all the time with ease.

[thefox]

[vbb71zoso]

Any of you guys know where I could get my hands on a recoil starter for a Tri moto 175cc? It's that last thing I need and it is killing me not to find one! Any suggestions would be great......Vince

[zppeacock]

1983 Ytm-200e

[vbb71zoso]

I picked this up last weekend in my home town of Brunswick Ohio. The guy had it in there for $100 and I did not even try to talk him down. It is rough, but I started it on one pull with a rope. (Starter is on the way with help from Old-Yellow) Anyways.....The guy ran it with mixed oil and I would like to do the same. Any suggestions on the mix ratio? Originally I was going to buy it for the new tires that are on it, but I like it too much to part it out. If anyone has suggestions on what else to do as far as the oil pump and carburetor to run mixed fuel, I would love to know.

Thanks.....Vince

btw.....My boy Logan isn't really a punk....I told him to look "cool":lol:

1985 TRI-Z (just got it)

[Vealmonkey]

Vbb, if you do a "search" you should be able to find a thread on what to change for the running the premix in the gasoline. It's basically unhook the premix line from the tank to the pump and the line from the pump to the carb and block off the carb premix barb with one of those vaccuum hose block off caps and then add the premix to your gas and you should be good to go. Let the oil pump run a while without blocking it off to make sure all the premix is out of the oil pump. You don't have to do anything to the pump if you don't want to, just leave it in place. You mix your premix according to the manufacturers suggestion. Some premix oils have suggestions on the back of the bottle. Start with their recommendations. Have fun.

[KingGlamis]

Newbie here, but not new to 3 wheelers. Tomorrow we pick up the Tri-Zinger pictured here. It's for the kids but you know I'll be riding it around camp. First order of business will be to recover the seat. LOL

http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m144/KingGlamis/Tri-Zinger2.jpg

[Mackee]

I have ridden all over the US on 4 wheelers and just recently purchased my first 3 wheeler, a 1985 YTM 225DR. I know I am going to be hooked when I get her ready and take her for a spin. Good to be on here!

Mike

[82cutty]

My Tri-Moto I just bought a few weeks ago . Cleaned up the plastic... it was really bad . I sanded for hours . Also put some new tires on the back and have a new front tire on the way .
Yesturday I swapped out the ancient front headlight and installed a 9006 bulb .

The little guy runs pretty strong for a 125 but I think i'm going to swap a 175 in it for alittle more :)

Some pictures :

I'm doing the seat cover now that's why the seats off . Dark gray vinyl for the seat

[Yamada]

I think I never saw a 125 with this model of fork. Looks likes ytm-200 fork.

I think I never saw a 125 with this model of fork. Looks likes ytm-200 fork.

It's from a 225 dx

[vbb71zoso]

What part of the engine is the small black cover with the two tubes coming out of it? I have my first 2 stroke and I am not familiar with it. I do not have a manual yet. I am still looking to download one with no luck so far. Anyways....I am cleaning this up and wanted to know what this is. Thanks guys!

Hi all

I have the following:

Yamaha DX 225 (Blue)
Yamaha DR 225 (Blue)
Yamaha 200E (Yellow)

I love them all!

I will get some pics up later.

Thanks

[pimpallic]

There is still a lot of people who didn't join the club. I am sure a lot of people are proud of owning a Yamaha trike.

I have a yt175, but I'm not too sure about being proud of owning it lol :lol:
Its so unrealiable and is just a piece of crap :mad:

[Vealmonkey]

They all gotta start somewhere. That is what makes it worthwhile when you get it looking nice and running decent. Remember, with some of these trikes, you have to undo 20 years of peoples' abuse and poor wrenching. Hang in there and keeping putting a little money and time in it.
Also, did you know that according to your picture, that your front brake hub is on the wrong side and that your front forks are backwards. Your brake hub and cable should be on the left side of the yt175, so your forks need switched around. You should have a trialing front axle, not a leading front axle. If you cared that is. Not bashing you so please don't be defensive.

[riverrat]

I guess I am part of this club:
my 1980 Exciter 1 (250cc street bike)
and my tri-zinger now.

[old-yellow]

Hey Pimpallic, if you want help getting your trike running reliable again I am more then willing to help as much as I can.

Alex

[Itrike]

Thanks a lot Vealmonkey and Alex, I've already put loads of time and money into it, but the previous owner literally messed everything up on it.:crazy: Last year I bought a whole box load of parts which has helped a bit but mechanically it still sucks lol. I don't want to hijack this thread so I'll stop here but thanks for being concerned :D

[Russell 350X]

[musser1972]

I own an 85 YTM 225 DX.

[trimoto.125]

I have 2 trimoto 125's and a 175. Sorry no pics yet. I just rebuilt the 175 top and bottom and one trimoto is a parts bike and the other 125 needs a crank seal.

[YTM027]

Im looking into an aftermarket exhaust for my 1985 ytm 225 dr and im looking at the dg rcm exhaust is that a good choice?

[Vealmonkey]

That exhaust is probably your only choice unless you get lucky and find an older nos exhaust.

[sanchez]

well i seem to accumulate them. got an
84 ytm 200 first reliable bike had since 98
yt175 (my buddy hit my brother on for mentioned ytm broke leg) since 02
yt 125/175 powered call it the mongrel since 07
zingger (which beets buddies pit bikes in backyard moto) since 07

unfortunately they never built anything with real suspension except the tri-z (my buddies is to fast for my taste )so i usually rock a 200x but like yamaha stuff better.

[YTM027]

is there any type of mods that would have to be done? like jetting?

[Vealmonkey]

No yamahas with rear suspension! I guess you haven't seen my Pro Tec 175 rear suspension kit project yet then. Several friends and myself have the Pro Tec kits to add a rear swingarm to a yt175! Look for the thread on here about this and see what we are up to!

[MonroeMike]

[gutterworks129]

These are my Tri-Z that I've been working on for a while. The 85 yellow Tri-Z came from New Jersey from the 1st owner with OEM plastics in great condition, chain/sprockets , piston/rings, certificate of origin and service manuel. The 85 1/2 and true 86 were in boxes and milk crates that I bought from a dude in NC that use to race and own a race shop. They were a mese, I rebuilt the cranks and new top ends, plastics, powder coated all three frames. It was a lot of work and time in the shop and hunting down hard to find parts. I have a lot of parts so I'm building a fourth Tri-Z. I should have some pics shortly. Cheers.http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z072.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z044.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z061.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z078.jpg

Wow gutterworks, you have a nice collection! Which one is your favorite?

[gutterworks129]

Well I've switch wheels and put the 8" with Turf Tammers back on the 85, 9"with the Banshee tires on the 85 1/2 and 9" with the 501's on the 86. The 86 is my favorite with the 6-speed trans and the white plastics. I just got a silver set of rims for the 85 1/2 which is what came on that year. I'm going to put black powder coated rims on the Tri-Z I'm building, maybe with black Baja rims!

Pipelinetriker, welcome, but the yt175 came with a suspension front end uless you have changed a bunch of parts over. Cox the yt175 only came out in 82 and 83. If you have 2 81's, more than likely they are 125s. It is also a bit of a pain to put 175 engines in the 80 and 81 frame, it's possible but a pain. Now you can switch the top ends, but the 80 and 81 engines have clutch baskets that take fewer clutch plates and fiber and a 175 top end on an 80 or 81 lower end tends to fry the clutch pretty fast. Maybe you guys ought to go out and check your machines a little more closely.

[PepeLep]

I have a Tri-Moto 225DX that my dad bought for hunting. I believe it's an '83 or '84. It's actually still at my mom's, but we use it around her farm. It's in excellent shape, but I came here for a parts question. Nice to meet you guys.

Now for my question. I was scouting for deer season a few weeks ago on the three wheeler, and ran into a bunch of downed trees. Somehow, I managed to bend the shifter. The problem is...I don't know what it's called! Does anybody know the name of the lever you click up and down to shift gears? I know it sounds like a stupid question, but I never bent it before, so I don't know. It looks like we could just take it off and replace it if I could find the part. Nothing else seems to be damaged. I just used it to cart out my deer this morning. It's just hard to shift because the lever is bent.

If anybody knows the name of that part (and maybe where I could get one without having to sell my kid), that would be great!
Thanks.

Your front brake is on the wrong side... The axle should be behind the fork and the brake on the left side. But if your happy with the way it handle, keep it this way...

And welcome to all the new members!

[seanndenise]

yeah the forks are switched around, ive seen a few different types of trikes this is done too. i even asked local bike shop what the purpose of doing this would be, the only answer i got was, someone had it apart and put it back together backwards and said wth ill leave it, or they did it on purpose to extend the wheel out farther to hold the front end down. it does extend the front wheel quite a bit.

i replaced the front bearings a couple months back and thought about putting it back to original but decided to leave it as it is.

thanks for the heads up though.

You can use a free photo hosting website like Photobucket, BubbleShare, or SnapFish. There are more out there, those are just a few that I use.

Also, I have the same bike, Blue 85' 225DX. Mine is in great condition, bought from original owner and he took great care of it. Really fun bike and quite the wheelie machine!

Do the 1984 225dx's have full suspension? I think I have found the trike I'm looking for, but I don't want it if it doesn't have full suspension.

Yes they are fully suspended. And the 225DR also have reverse.

I take it that since they're shaft driven, you can't do much to the suspension?

[rickyjohn22]

I'm finally trying to rebuild my 1984 yt 60 tri- zinger thats been sitting in my garage for at least 10 years and i need a seat for it or seat pan so let me know if you have anything or know anybody thanks.

[siliconestars]

What's up everyone?! Just trying to help get us up to that 100 baby!!
I'll post pics later.
I know there is a certain way to reply, so if I didn't do it right, one of ya'll let me know.
I just joined the site period, so I'm still trying to figure everything out.
I use to ride when I was younger, but they just got away from me.
I bought my own just 2 weeks ago.

Could someone tell me what the letters mean behind 200?
I've seen 200e, 200er, 200ern(the way it's written in the manuel), 200k, 200eh?, and maybe a couple
more; I just want to know the difference between them.
I would really appreciate it.

[Deweese Bugz]

I have a 1985 Tri-Moto 200cc. Having a very unusual problem, to me anyways. Everytime you turn sharp to the left, the trike dies. I thought it was a carb problem, so I took the carb off of my other one that runs perfect, and it done the exact same thing! While at idle, if you are standing on the left side of the trike and tip it towards you it will run perfect, if you tip it the other direction to the right it will die within 3 seconds. Like I said I switched carbs and it done the same thing. I have no idea what can be causing this, any info is much appreciated, thanks!

[CanadianThomas]

Hi everyone. Yamaha YTM200ER here. Just trying to finnish a full restoration. Will be very nice.

Trying to buy a 225dr so let's hope for the best!

[trimoto1982]

Got an 82 tri moto 125 needs a throttle cable. Let me know if you got one for me.

[dksix]

I want to join. 1986 225DX. It smokes (needs top end0 It's ugly ( better plastic on the way ) The frame will get candy blue powder coating when the 200x is done and the top end. A seat cover from the Moshes and I'm looking into the better front tire/wheel conversions ( would like to adapt a Tri-z front with disk brake but all in time). It starts as soon as I hit the button and has brought me hours of great ridning around the house with my son and his 70cc quad. Here it is it sits now, build thread to come in the winter months.

[grover2044]

I have a 1982 YT-175 that I just picked up. It came with a full set of extra platics, a box of motor parts and a second set of rear tires. The rear suspension has been modded and forks from something installed on the front. I thought that I would post some pics for you guys to see.

[muthey]

my guess is the carb over flow line, and I bet it is pissed it has trail pros on it I know mine is

[hublake]

To all you Yamaha owners. I just picked up an 84 225dx and I could use a BLACK front fender. One with no cracks.

[vartz04]

picked up a 1984 225 dx last week so you can add me to the club.

[brd812]

I have a 85 225 DX w/ DG exhaust, Renthal bars, cycra handguards, 2in spacers, and 22x11x10 fasttrackers on the rear. 30years and only 1 set of rings and valve job 15 years ago. I think a can belong. hahaha

[muthey]

I just picked up a 225drn, not sure on the year yet as it's stuck in the snow, and a 200ern buried in the snow as well for 100$ together they are parts bikes for me am hoping to build one out of both figured my best bet was to ask you guys here on this thread if I can put the 225 head on the 200 bottom end, as I would really like a chain driven 225, also I'd almost swear the 200 has suspension on the rear, but I may be wrong, it does have all the plastics though, and is almost complete

[Richieyzf]

Only just see this thread I own a 86 Tri z

[knightrider56]

These are my Tri-Z that I've been working on for a while. The 85 yellow Tri-Z came from New Jersey from the 1st owner with OEM plastics in great condition, chain/sprockets , piston/rings, certificate of origin and service manuel. The 85 1/2 and true 86 were in boxes and milk crates that I bought from a dude in NC that use to race and own a race shop. They were a mese, I rebuilt the cranks and new top ends, plastics, powder coated all three frames. It was a lot of work and time in the shop and hunting down hard to find parts. I have a lot of parts so I'm building a fourth Tri-Z. I should have some pics shortly. Cheers.http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z072.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z044.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z061.jpghttp://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss227/gutterworks129/Tri-Z078.jpg

I lived in Las Cruces, New Mexico in the 80s and owned a 85 yellow Tri-Z that looked just like your machine. The thing was a fire cracker. Almost 2 fast for trail riding. I got it used at the Yamaha dealership in Las Cruces, at the begining of 1986. It came with a pair of wide track tires on rims also. I rode it so much I wore out the trail tires and had to switch to the wide "Track" type tires. I really miss that machine. Had to give it up when I moved to Florida... Boy your Yellow Tri-Z looks great....

Actually in addition to my post above, do these machines farewell being used in the winter? Traction maybe an issue, however my question is more focused on the wear and
tear of running the unit in the winter. Thanx

[dougspcs]

Add my name..I just got my 1st Yamaha(yellow 225DX). Now this one was a quick flip..used the funds to buy the others.
144998

then my second(yellow 200e)
144999

and third(black 225DR SE).
145000

I figured it's time to broaden my horizons!!

The black one is my favourite..I found the compression a bit low and burning some oil so the cylinder went for a 1 over bore and high compression piston.

I look forward to riding it once it's done..

Well you are right..the trikes aren't very good in the winter once there is 6-8 inches under them they mostly don't go anywhere. But then again neither do quads..

But as far as doing them harm, hell no! They love it..

[DSHOT59]

I`m in, I picked up what I believe is a 83 ytm 200.Been wanting a yellow one for a while and the price was right. Needs some work but It`getting there. New pics when it`s back together.
