    awesome site.i came up with honda 250r's and 350x's.my very first ride was a yamaha 225dx.i loved that blue thing!so i found another one cheap to put together.my question is did the shaft drive system change from 83 to the later ones?i need the rear diff on the rear axle,but the ones i see on ebay all have a shaft with a large female end protruding out.mine has a splined shaft that is male on both ends.the one i have is an 83.can anyone help?thanks!i used to have a bumper sticker that said"3 wheelin, a good feelin".that sums it up.
