Hi, for some strange reason I have decided to restore a 1965 Yamaha YB50. I suppose I am trying to recapture my youth, as I use to own a fizzy.

Anyway, is there anyone out there who can direct me to a Yamaha classic parts dealer?

I thought, I know I will ring my local Yamaha dealer, for a laugh, they haven't even heard of a YB50 let alone locate me some parts.

I don't need much: points, condensor, air filter and exhaust.

Hope there are some Yamaha classic nuts out there, who can help me.

Thanks: Mr FZ750

Thanks for the link... It should help, thanks
I think that the YB50 and fizzy may share some of the same parts.

you could try padgetts or www.fowlers.co.uk, failing that have a look in the back of classic motorcycle mechanics
