YAMAHA LS2 1972 100cc twin

[crazy steve]

i recently got my hands on a 1972 ls2 which im trying to acquire some parts for.
i need a kick starter gear shaft, and cannot find one anywhere!
does anybody know if a shaft or any parts from another bike will fit?
i also need the whole lever too

Looks like a 'standard' Yamaha part. See if you can find one for early YZ, 200cc 'Blaster' or any of the small street two strokes (single cylinder, DT, etc)
Kickstart will also be 'standard' Yamaha/Honda/Kawasaki spline (Suzuki just have to be different ;D )

I had one of those, sold it around 8 months ago. Nice little bike.

Parts are similar to a lot of small yamaha from that era.

You can probably get RD125 parts from Europe. May not be the cheapest option but as the small two strokes were real popular and sold for 20+ years longer than in USA parts should be easier to find
