Nice bike there. I have one the paint on the tank is stuffed . I bought it with a screeching noise coming from the gear selector side. It turned out to be the clutch thrust plate bearing stuck on the clutch bush spacer.

It starts and runs lovely. Great to see that.

Paint for the red JT2

I am getting ready to work on my JT2 and have been looking for the proper paint code. I have run in to a question, brilliant red 0063 seems to be what I can find online but that is a candy red that requires a silver base. That isn't right. Do you guys know that proper red? Thanks.

Hello, welcome to the site. I am a little confused. The 1972 Yamaha JT2 was Mandarin Orange. The 1971 Yamaha JT1/JT1L were Desert Orange. if you could clarify which model you have that would help in providing a response.

Torque Engineering Decals

Hey Devin,

I have what I believe to be a Torque Engineering Exhaust on one of my little JT mini enduros and I would like to order new decals from you but I am concerned that the heat shields may be smaller on this little pipe. Can you tell me the length and width of the two decals you offer?

DT 250 C turn signal problem

Hi everyone,

I have a question about the electrical system on my DT 250 C.

When I turn on the turn signals, the tail light gets noticeably dimmer. Is this normal for the original 6-volt electrical system, or is it a sign that something is wrong?

If it’s not normal, where should I start looking? The battery, ground connections, voltage regulator, or something else?

Thanks for any advice!

I would clean all of your grounds and connections. It will only help. I will mention that this is pretty normal. If you are riding the bike, the RPMs will be higher and more current will be generated, so it will not be as bad compared to idle.

DT 250 C in Europe

Hi everyone,

Last month I picked up a DT 250 C here in Europe. I believe it’s a US model because the VIN starts with 450. However, my DT is blue. I’ve read that the DT 250 C was also available in blue, but I’m not sure if the US version came in that color. Maybe someone here knows more about it?

The bike is mostly original. The only parts missing are the mirror, the front brake cable guide on the front fork, and the original rear shocks.

You can also see on the fuel tank that there used to be some lettering or a decal that said “Pretty Diamond.” Does anyone know if that was an original dealer decal or something added by a previous owner?

Thanks in advance for any information!

Thanks for posting the pictures. If you could take a picture of the VIN number that is stamped into the metal frame that would help identify it because the European bikes had a special Asterix next to it and the US models never had that mark.
