I bought a bunch of junk for my TW today, so wrenchin' will resume soon. A new pair of blue gators, a 15 tooth sprocket, a clutch cover gasket and a crash pad. I need some shop time.

In preparation for the new sprocket, the oil was dumped (again), and it was horrible (again). I also removed the oil filter, and discovered that I was mistaken; it's a washable filter that I bought, not pleated paper. It seems to be catching debris:
![]() The new sprocket was a really good deal! I got it from the good folks at Gnarly Parts. Sorry for the fuzzy pic. ![]() That's all for tonight. Next, I'll remove the clutch cover, have a look and make the adjustment that is referenced in the manual. The clutch slips a little when I'm really on the throttle, but that could just be the degraded oil. Stay tuned.

PBI makes great sprockets.
![]() ![]() To the best of my knowledge, all the TW200 oil filters are reusable, Weld. Some of them appear to be disposable, but they are constructed of a fine, metal mesh. ![]() Spud ![]()

That filter is earning it's keep! Yuck!
I've been debating a washable filter for the YZ. They go about $40 though.

Wow! Even the K&N or the latest Yamaha washable filters are less than $10 for the TW.
