    needs a air box and filter, some one put lawn mower rims and tires on the rear, carb is bit messed up
    now the question.....
    what ratio sould the oil/gas be mixed at?
    im gona post a pic asap
    also where would i find the year on it? or are they all the same so dont realy matter?

    Tri-moto 60

    Have you called your nearest Yamaha dealer? I imagine that it would have the same mix ratio as the bigger tri-motos.

    32:1 for the mix ratio, alot of guys run a little higher but thats with performance machienes and good oil. if you use regular cheap mix like i do, 32:1 is fine.

    the year could be found out by serial number on the bike (i dont know them though, someone on here would). once you post pics someone on here will be able to tell the year from looking at it, usually.

    All years YT60 TriZinger (not Trimoto) are the same other than color of plastic. Also the YFM60's (Quad-Zingers) are factory 4 wheel converted YT60's so they are the same except for the obvious.

    The YT60 is oil injected and does not require premixing unless it has been disabled and plugged.

    If the injector is not being used, gas/oil mixes depend on the oil, not the machine. There are a million threads on it, and almsot as many opinions. As a general guideline, 20-25:1 for general purpose 2 cycle oil like youd buy for a chain saw or rototiller. 32:1 if you are buying Factory oils like Yamalube or The honda stuff ( I think its HP4 or something) If you run high performance oils (which I highly recommend in any machine) such as BelRay H1r, MC1, Spectro, Klotz, Blue Marble, etc., they should be run at 50:1.

    How old is your boy? My grandson is five and my granddaughter is seven. They want me to by them a four wheeler. I think I'll upset my wife and buy them a three wheeler instead.

    got it runing, cleaned the carb and it started first pull, needs needle and seat, carb over flows after shuting off
    needs gaskets, leaks oil from some place.
    gets going prety good though
    kid likes it!! really moves with him on it though....little scary need to get him in open space where he has more time to think before hitting something

    i read that carb, reeds, and clutch out of a pw 50 will work on it anyone know fer sure?
    love this site so many people to help

    Tri-moto 60

    Does it have a throttle lock or a way to keep him from going too fast? When I give my grandson rides on my 200x he tries to push my thumb down so he can go faster. I wonder if a person could rig up a remote kill switch on one.

    needs gaskets,

    Are you sure its the needle and seat and not just the float height?

    There is a limiting screw in the thumb throttle that limits how far it can be pushed.

    Also, on the rear of the Zinger near the grab bar is a tether kill switch. It was put there with the idea of using it as a "leash".

    If your using it in limited space- That leash thing can be any length of string you like . If it gets out of control,----snap ! it shuts right down. Also -if you know anyone invoved in RC cars- You can rig a servo to the tether switch and "Remote control shut-off" from 250 feet away!
