Porting a 1975 YT 175 was created by RacerClam
I'm currently porting a TY 175 for a customer who competes in vintage trials. But the problem for him is that it performed like a moped without pedals. So I have done much work to help with that problem including installing a case port that will dramatically improve the snap he desires , along with exaust port , boost port and transfer port mods. It looks racy but the timing is mild. Also will be installing a 28mm VM carb with 6 venture dividers and a ufo.

yeah YT--3 wheeler-- had me worried as they're dangerous enough in std trim. TY--i have a TY cylinder on my old AT1 piston port 125. Think i have a base plate under it due to conrod length & couldn't be bothered changing it. In fact the bottom end has never been apart since new. Anyway--TY top end goes very much better on this than as a trials bike possibly due to the trail exhaust & 28 carb & has 'willing' top end & over-rev. AT1 pipe i gutted about 35 years ago when it got choked up. Very interesting looking at porting changes from people that know what the're doing!! & thanks for posting. Hope he has a clean exhaust even if it's a std TY pipe--exhaust & tail pipe muffler especially the spark arrestor bit down the end.

How did this turn out?
Were the porting modifications suited to trials riding?
