Tecate, I got the pictures, Wow. I guess the base gasket is the same? And does the piston seem to work with the stock con rod? 6 petal reeds compared to the 4 on the yt and mx.
Old yellow, the blaster reeds work with the it 175 cylinder if I read and understand the thread right.
And todays' progress. Lou Mielke swapped the yt175 front end to his yt125.
And we totally swapped the yt175 engine that was in my frame into Gazoos' trike. We installed the PK racing exhaust which Brian should have pictures up soon. We installed Boysen Reeds into Brians trike too. We also installed the carb that Lou cleaned up and reassembled, but we had a problem with Brians throttle cable for some unknown reason. Brian grudgingly modded it to work and things seem to be better. We finally got Brians trike to idle and now it won't seem to move under it's own power, so I think there is an issue with the clutch. But we are making progress in some areas and going back in others. There aren't too many parts original to Brians yt anymore. LOL We have some serious time into swapping parts and such with more work to go. Almost every used part we come up against, has to have some problem fixed with it. Damn those people who cobble these trikes together with standard bolts and booger welds and poor wiring.
