Great find.

Where are the nylon mag covers available from? I've not heard of them before.

I reckon it looks like what the filename of the photo says (gollner). In this case a Gollner based on KT250 running gear. Bob Gollner, specialist bike builder.

Its a Gollner KT250, fitted with a frame made by Wasp Motorcycles. A little lighter than the stock frame, but very prone to breakages, and other than looking nice cosmetically probably not as good as the stock bike (due to frame breakages).

Just a question for the TY experts.

Did Yamaha resort to a different rear muffler assembly for the "C"s ?
they look a bit chunkier than the earlier models



yes they did

As the JC was a road registerable model it had different silencing requirments to those bikes dedicated to the dirt
