As you can probably guess not too many air R owners here, they're getting more rare by the day. And parts are just as bad. That's why you aren't getting any replys. I know as far as working condition brakes that's pretty much non-existant and the few that are out there are probably on bikes in someone's collection. What exactly do you need for it besides brakes?

 

the manifold for sure and there is so much stuff i cat even list what size tire do you have on the front of yours and i also want an extended swing arm. thanks alot

 

Swingarm of the times was from westcoast swinger. The manifold, do you mean the intake boot? The front tire is a dunlop kt576 23x8x11 but it's discontinued, but there are others that can be bought. Also you could get a machine shop to extend the swinger 3" or so for a pretty fair price. For oem used parts e-bay will probably be your best choice.

 

My 1999 yami warrior is geting no fuel, it is geting spark but i cant even smell fuel, i took the tank off to get at the carb to put a new throttle cable on but the throttle cable was fine all along, so im wondering if the throttle cable might now be brocken, or streched, or fuel lines, thre cant be much possiblys because its nothing electrical. all anwsers will help.

 

Not sure what this has to do with the origional question, maybe a new thread would work .

Best bet is to try catalogs like bike bandet, dennis kirk and chapperal for universal type parts - look around sometimes you will find more looking by category then by going bike specific. As for oem stuff, there getting harder to find but the honda dealer can still get stuff for them. Of coarse there is always fee-bay for stuff, but watch it there lots of times someone will try to sell junk for 3X what you can get it new from a dealer on there.

Not sure where you are located, but here in southern Ontario, we have Royal Distributing, which carries brake pads, cables and lots of stuff for 3-wheelers, including all years of the 250R. Here is the link to access them online

Here is a link where you can read and save to file, even print out for free, the original shop manual, with all OEM specs included.
