I have a 2002 Yamaha SR125 and my original Speedometer has packed in. Everything works apart from the mileage. Does anyone know how to wind the Clock back?

This is a highly ill - eagle act to do. In the old days we would put an electric drill on the drive cable, but now they make them tamper proof so they only go one way. The bezels are crimped on so you can't get inside them. I expect modern one may be electronic. How will your insurance company know what mileage you have done? I have never known an insurance cancel or fine due to mileage. You should have just disconnected it when you got close to the limit. Buy a used one and use them for 6 months in turns. There are two or three here 23K and one with 36k https://www.google.com/search?q=2002+yamaha+sr125+speedometer ..

First make sure that the new battery has been fully charged and is not defective. Next make sure that the proper voltage is reaching the started. You may have a bad post connection or loose connection at the starter. Try jumping you battery with another known good battery.

Yamaha XT125X - I have just changed the fuel valve and put petrol in the tank. Now the engine won't start and the fuel light is on all of the time? Any ideas anyone please?

Make sure the fuel is getting to the valve and passing through it. Possible blockage in fuel line or in the tank.

2005 Yamaha v star 650 losing power

What Exactly does the bike do when it 'loses power'? This will give clues as to where the issue could be. When was the last time the bike was given a major service? Sometimes it can be as simple as a dirty fuel/air filter or an old/worn or dirty spark plug.

1995 Yamaha Virago 535. It runs good for about 7 miles then starts backfiring?

  1. Fuel System Issues:
    • Check the fuel system for clogs, such as a dirty fuel filter or carburetor jets.
    • Ensure that the fuel tank and fuel lines are clean and free from debris.
    • Consider adding a fuel system cleaner to help clean out any deposits.
  2. Ignition System Problems:
    • Inspect the spark plugs for fouling, wear, or improper gap.
    • Check the ignition timing to make sure it's set correctly.
    • Inspect the ignition coils and wiring for any loose connections or damage.
  3. Air Intake and Exhaust Issues:
    • Examine the air filter for clogs or dirt that may restrict airflow.
    • Inspect the exhaust system for any leaks or blockages.
  4. Vacuum Leaks:
    • Check for vacuum leaks in hoses, gaskets, or intake boots. A vacuum leak can cause an improper air-fuel mixture, leading to backfiring.
