adapter carburator inlet from china?
Permalink  
 

Hello, 

As I have just explain in my presentation, I bought a 93's TTR250 last saturday and I m starting to check the parts which need to be replace. The first one is the rubber pipe between the carburator and the cylinder;, it is completely worn and probably creates an air leak wich can explain why the engine is getting so hot.

I had a look on internet and you can find a new one at Yamaha for 50 £ or a chinese one for 8£; has someone got any fedback about the chinese one? 

 

 

thank you

I bought one for trial. It's only 200 km long and it still works.

Sometimes the Chinese ones are moulded upsidedown, and sometimes they don't stay in one piece for long, but for that price it might be worth the gamble to get the bike running right and you can spend more on the proper Yam part when you have fallen in love with your TTR.
Some info here:

I stock both to give customers the choice and make sure the aftermarket ones fit.
