    Yea, the shifter has some issues; get it up there where it belongs.

    Does it start with the electric starter? When they got older, a source/pickup coil likes to get weak; just replace that coil and fix that.

    Oh Yea, No rusted fuel tank on this Yamaha, like a Honda, the tank is very durable plastic.
    Good to know. Electric start still works. It feels kinda tippy to me, but the only thing I have to compare it to is my ATC 250r. Footpeg bracket is bent, but a whole new mount for both pegs is $60 new from Yamaha. Shifter seems to be out of adjustment and cammed over. Still goes through the gears though.

    For sure. Shifter and footpeg are straightened out now. Gotta check valves and do oil change next.
