The finest thing an old chap like me can have, is the oppartunity to once again be on two wheels. Where can i find a good stockist of 2nd hand parts for her? Namely a 2 stroke oil res and pump. Some bits i have managed to find allready. I live in wonderful Bedfordshire.

Hi

There are a few places around. A DT175 might cause problems as it is so old (~1980?). However for new parts try one of the long standing Yamaha dealers such as Rafferty Newman in Portsmouth.

All the best

Keith

Plenty. Don't ever ask me for a lesson in spelling. My spelling is awful.

All the best

Ok. Was only testing!!! Good to know that we have an 'Oracle' here on BCF, that if any of us are ever having problems, we know we can turn to a man who has the answers Thumbs Up Cool
