I recently acquired a 1975 Yamaha DT250 that I plan to restore to running condition. The engine seems to be complete, but I need a bunch of body parts, like gas tank, forks, seat and fenders, and some electrical parts, like CDI and coil. Parts for these old bikes can be hard to find. It would help if I knew other Yamaha models from the same year or vintage that would interchange with the parts from my bike. I can often find parts from other Yamaha 250s, but I don't want to spend a lot of money on stuff that won't fit. When I restored my '74 Suzuki TS250 this spring, I discovered than many parts from the TM250 would transfer. I was wondering if anyone know if the same is true for the DT250 and the YZ250 or another old Yamaha model. Any helpful hints? Thanks for your help.
