Hey all, I just picked up a YFM200 utility that's in need of a set of rings and an exhaust valve. I was hunting around for a manual for it and found one on ebay that's for 83-86, after doing a little reading on this fine forum, I discovered mine is actually an 88, so I'm wondering if the book will still be accurate?

By looking at the pics on the front of the book, and comparing parts on Bike Bandit, it looks like the bikes are pretty well alike, but I just thought I'd see if anyone here knows if there is much difference between them.

 

i got a 89 yfm250 and its almost the same as my 86 yfm225

 

Same 229.6cc 71mm bore and 58mm stroke they use to this day. Carbs may change through the years though.
