90' RT180 oil injection
The bike isnt pre 1975, but its 20 yrs old now so ill consider it "vintage"
heres my query:
ive had this bike for a little while now and its fun to ride, so i would like to keep it. I bought it without the oil tank or hoses, the previous owner tank mixed which is fine by me because i dont really trust pre-oilers anyway. However, the oil pump is still in, and i would like to take it out and seal it off. Does anybody have any insight on doing this on this or any other bike? Tips, hints, problems run across etc. do i just pull the pump out and seal up the holes? am i missing something else? any info is greatly appreciated guys. thanks

My Wife? Isn't there a hose that you need to place a ball bearing into somewhere? I did the same with my son's blaster a few years ago. I also have a vintage 180 in my shed with less than 2 hour sof run time on it. Still has the nubbs on the knobbies. I did have to replace my tank though. They had a steel tank on it, and it rusted inside. Talk about an easy fix. Maier has a plastic replacement that is an exact copy. Add a yamaha sticker kit and you wouldn't know the difference. Much less hassle. I plan on converting it as well, if I ever get time to ride again. Witht the bum leg, I can't kick it over any more though, so it will probably get handed down to my youngest son. I originally bougt it for my daughter. She rode it once, crashed in a mud puddle, and refused to get on it again. I did make HER drag it out of the puddle though. I guess that was an expensive 20 mintues of laughter.
