Backroads on my XT
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 2 ก.ย. 2011
I have a 2001 Yamaha 225XT. Cruising the backroads for fun and scenery. Just imagine listening to Marshall Tucker, Long Hard Ride and enjoy the views.
I also plan to do some product reviews.

Finally getting to the backroads! The highlight of the ride were some huge long horns. I hope to find some close ups. Look around and check it out. Play it in slow motion or pause and see it all. I just got a Mac Mini M2 Pro with all the cores! So hopefully I can edit and publish some good content.
Stator Charge Coil Assembly -- Lessons Learned -- More Bad Yamaha Info
มุมมอง 424ปีที่แล้ว
HI, I have discovered thru trial and error the Yamaha Service Manual is not up to date on the mid 2000 to 2007 manufactured Motorcycles. The Yamaha XT225 community has been frustrated for years trying to troubleshoot the no spark condition. This video helps owners to troubleshoot the no spark, specifically the charge coil.

Yamaha XT225 Mukuni BST34 Carb hoses, MK-403 air cutoff plate, Non-California.
มุมมอง 6K2 ปีที่แล้ว
I show carb hose ID and routing, MK-403 air cutoff (choke) plate. Crankcase breather hose. This is the Non-California carb. The CA carb has a hose connection under the float bowl that goes to the canister on the right side, mounted to the frame. The MK-403 plate is not a Yamaha part, it is a Mukuni Part. Look for it in aftermarket section. Download the service manual here: drive.google.com/file...

I will also include product reviews and show mechanical videos when required repairs are necessary. Here is a link to the only manual Yamaha put out for the XT225. Don't bother with the $89.00 new manual from Yamaha pubs, it's the same one here for free. drive.google.com/file/d/1fWiG4aCsop9tTHAxEAOJt1UcUSJ4IbOR/view?usp=sharing SEE MY VIDEOS IF YOU HAVE A MID 2000 TO 2007 YEAR MODEL FOR TIMING ...

Yamaha Motorcycle XT225 CALLOUT!! FINAL UPDATE! Pubs not updated when bikes are.

This is the final update with the answer from me, not Yamaha. I show emails and Yamaha's incompetence. What it cost me? I spent $90.00 on the service manual and $25.00 on shipping, to get the definitive answer on the Top Dead Center mark on the crankshaft rotor. The manual shows the pre 2001 engine markings and is incorrect for the 2001-2007 engine! I have sent emails and pictures explaining th...

Yamaha Motorcycle CALLOUT!! What is TDC on the XT225 Engine?
มุมมอง 4433 ปีที่แล้ว
I spent $90.00 on the service manual and $25.00 on shipping, to get the definitive answer on the Top Dead Center mark on the crankshaft rotor. The manual shows the pre 2001 engine markings and is incorrect for the 2001-2007 engine! I have sent emails and pictures explaining the problem and have not received an answer. So here is the callout.
Thanks for your videos, I am really enjoying them. Could you run a test on your working stator? I think my stator is bad, I have a 2007 XT 225, can you tell me the ac voltage of the white stator 1-2 and 1-3 when the starter is going, but the engine hasn't started up. My spark is very weak and intermittent. I get about 8 volts AC when I am pressing the starter button. The engine won't start.
Can you show us how to tune it? i'd appreciate it
I was informed that the top hose vents through the hole in the frame under the tank.
great video!!
Thank you so much, I just got a new stator for my 2005 XT225, the yellow wire read zero to ground. I was about ready to send it back. Thankfully I saw that you mentioned another video, this one.
The XT225(3RW) is a simple and perfectly balanced motorcycle. In Japan, another name is Serow. I'm on the same XT225 Please enjoy remodeling and renovation. I'm rooting for you.
Needed this, the previous owner of my bike had missing lines left and right and I wasn’t sure where any of it went. Doesn’t that top vent like go into the frame right under the seat?
Every hose and it's connection is accounted for in the video. The top cam cover vent hose goes to the airbox as shown.
Agree that #4 vent goes up under the tank to a hole in the side of the frame tube. It’s a vent not a drain. Running it out the bottom may introduce contaminates of dust, moisture or water if fording water. My #3 90 degree drain fitting was also broke when I bought this bike. My guess is Yamaha doesn’t sell it individually but I’m going to check. Just rebuilt my carb after purchasing. Runs like a new bike.
Your a life saver. Got a ttr that needed work. Didn't know anything about carbs and it didn't have any lines with it
superb graphics! Thanks for the instructive video
Thank-you.
I've been tempted to buy a new carburetor and see what happens because it only makes sense to think the carb got backed up. I still have spark
In this video I show a cap in the intake manifold. Take the cap off spray some fuel in there, install the cap and see if it fires. If it does there's a fuel problem. The fuel port for idle is the brass tube in between the main jet and pilot jet. It just picks up fuel straight from the bowl. Find a thin twist tie and push it in the tube it should go in about 1 1/2 inches. If it doesn't go in it's clogged or the twist tie is too thick. Work that twist tie in with some cleaner.
I had a lot of gas in my airbox. Do you guys know why?
No, there are no connections to fuel on the air box. Did you mean oil? There is an engine breather hose connected to the box. When the piston goes up and down the air pressure it creates "breathing" flows in and out of the engine case thru the hose to the air box. The air carries a fine mist of oil with it. The oil builds up in the clean side of the air box. If there is too much oil in the engine the build up will be excessive.
Come to think of it. If the float needle is stuck open and the bowl overflow and all of the vents are clogged, with the bike sitting on the kick stand the next lowest overflow would be the intake/airbox. But what are the chances all the vents are clogged?
I did this with 2 different Meters. The fancy meter displayed K ohms and the decimal point made it confusing to read.
Thanks! Excellent video!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the video man. Good timing with the upload too. Pulled my junk ebay carb off a month ago to swap for an oem mikuni that came in today
Awesome, glad to help. Did the new carb come with the brass cap over the mixture screw?
Will that air cut off valve cause the bike not to idle. Mine cracked off on the top like yours did.
Mine would idle. Might depend on your current idle speed screw or a dirty carb. It's a vacuum leak and will cause problems either way.
Oh and there is an o-ring under the small head at the top. It's not included with the MK-403 kit, but is included in the carb rebuild kit. I recommend the Moose racing rebuild kit that includes the emulsion tube under the main jet. It's the tube the needle on the diaphragm slides up and down in.
@@Geeios1 Thank you I appreciate it I will look into it.
After staring at this during editing I discovered the breather hose is upside down according to the pictures and diagrams. Its routed under the carb instead of over the carb. I wonder which way would be best to slow the oil flow from the case?
