Hi Everyone,
In breaking news, I have scored another TY 80A motor (451 0XXXXXX)! Well actually I have had it for over a week and pulled it apart for it's first time ever and I didn't break anything! The crank feels good and the standard piston has minimal wear so it will be new bearings and seals, basically everything into the matching number cases and it will be a little closer to getting it going.
Still chasing the missing parts (see photos) if anyone can Help?
Now that I have been talking about it not being broken for a paragraph, I suppose it is no longer news and definitely not breaking news really?

Re: Basket Cases
Thank you David for the pictures, it does shed light on that part of the modification.

Hi Roger,
It sounds to me like a 1976 TY175JC. That was the bike with the battery box, lighting kit, and extra bits for road use.
A handy site for checking out TY engine and frame numbers is:

Re: Basket Cases
Hi Everyone,
Welcome to of the land Downunder. Did your TY 80 belong to a young Bruce Wayne by any chance as that might explain why it is black and upside Down? Or is it a Northern Hemisphere thing?
My TY 80 has a sheet metal plate welded to the frame under the front of the motor and I can't see any mounts for a separate bash plate.
Here is a wishlist for parts if anyone can help, happy to swap parts or cash if you prefer:
Rear silencer
Oil tank cover
Chain tensioner
Air cleaner boot and cage
Fuel tap and carby (full of watery white stuff)!
Brake shoes
Cables
Tank rubbers
Front brake arm
Front guard
All of which can be secondhand and worn to match the rest of the Bike!
Here is a photo of engine case and gearbox parts that are in much better condition than I expected considering both were full of water.

Re: Basket Cases
Thanks Greg for the input and ideas. You are correct in wondering if this bike was from the cave at Wayne Manor or some stealthy spy bike from Area 51! Not sure of her history. Your guess as good as any!
Today I remounted the reed block and put the airbox on with a new filter. My plan is to see how the motor runs with fresh gas, filter and plug. Also I rebuilt the Teikei carb and the Teikei petcock valve. There was no airboot on her either. In the long term I'd like to do a complete resto on her. But as you alluded, here in the northern hemisphere, its winter and a cold one in the Pacific NW. Hence a dark and cold garage. I am still waiting for parts (tires, tubes, bands, shift lever)to arrive from the U.K.
By the way Greg, great job on splitting the case. I wish I could do that or learn from you.
Cheers,
Patrick
