[PR] Y'S GEAR Text/Akira Kurita

Regular car washing and maintenance are important to keep your car in good condition. However, as the mileage increases over many years of riding, dirt and dullness can accumulate on various parts of the body, and rust can develop. Or you may have purchased a used bike and want to give it a thorough initializing. Wise Gear's new accessories for the SR400 and XT250 (Cerro 250) are the answer to these needs. Among them, the front and rear wheel assemblies are the center of attention, as they do not require the labor-intensive process of spoke tensioning and dramatically freshen up the suspension area.

Spoke wheels that have supported the SR400's undercarriage for more than 40 years

The Yamaha SR400, which followed the basic framework of the early model debuting in 1978 but changed details to suit the times, has been manufactured for more than 40 years and has created many fans The image shows the 2019 model.

Genuine parts are all single components such as hubs, rims, and spokes.

In contrast to cast wheels, which are generally cast in one piece, spoke wheels have a hub at the center, a rim to which the tire is attached, and spokes that connect the hub and rim, each of which is a separate component. This makes it possible to replace only the rim or reattach only the spokes, but even if you want to replace the entire wheel, you must purchase the hub, spokes, and rim as individual parts and assemble the wheel. Wheel assembly, also known as spoke tensioning, requires experience and skill, and it is no exaggeration to say that there is no place in the world where bike users, as well as general bike stores and accessory stores, can do this work. In short, spoke wheels are extremely difficult to assemble even when genuine manufacturer parts are available.

Wheel assemblies compatible with models from 2019 onward

In this context, the new wheel assembly from Y's Gear should be noted. The main feature of this product is that the highly difficult spoke wheels are sold in assembled condition. As mentioned earlier, there are no wheel assemblies available as genuine parts for the Yamaha SR400, and spoke tensioning is a must if the wheels are to be replaced for refurbishment or restoration. On the other hand, Wise Gear's wheel assembly includes not only spokes but also bearings and oil seals, a brake disc for the front and a driven sprocket for the rear, so it can be installed by bolting on tires, tubes and rim bands. The wheel assembly is compatible with the B9F1/B9F3 models released in 2019 and the B9F5/B9F6 models released in 2021. In addition to the regular anodized aluminum, black anodized aluminum is also available for the rim color, so the image can be changed along with the refresh.

Genuine Parts for Big Peace of Mind

The SR400 is in high demand as a custom base, and there are many parts from external manufacturers. However, wheels are also important parts for safety, requiring high strength and quality. In this respect, the reliability and peace of mind of knowing that all parts used are genuine Yamaha parts is enormous, and there is no better way to refresh the look and functionality of these parts.

Case Cover Set that dramatically improves the appearance of the engine

Another notable refresh parts for SR400 is the case cover set. The beautifully buffed and polished engine cover is an important iconic part of the SR400, but it can become dull and corroded with age, or even damaged by tipping over. In such cases, DIY polishing or hiring a professional polisher may restore the condition, but it may leave scratches or shine too brightly like a mirror finish. The most attractive feature of Wise Gear's case cover set, which consists of a clutch cover, oil filter cover, flywheel cover, and drive sprocket cover, is that it is finished to the same luster as the parts installed on new vehicles. The set also includes the oil seal for the kick pedal and other parts necessary for replacing the covers, so if the cover bolts can be attached and removed, the luster around the engine will be instantly enhanced, and it is sure to produce an outstanding freshening effect.

Front and rear fender set with a heavy chrome finish.

The stock fenders of the SR400 are made of chrome-plated steel, which is very rare nowadays, and the heavy feeling of steel and the deep luster of chrome are unique. Although many users change the fenders for customization, a trend to respect the stock style is emerging, and the need for the stock fenders is also increasing. However, many poorly maintained chrome-plated fenders have spot rust on the surface and rust eroding from the underside. Also, the cost of re-plating chrome fenders can be prohibitive, making it difficult to request re-plating. Considering this, the fact that new fenders can be purchased at this price is happy news for SR owners. The kit includes all the necessary parts for installation, so you can simply bolt on the new fenders and enjoy the dazzling luster of the chrome plating.

Eye-catching orange anodized aluminum wheels for the Cerro 250

Along with the SR400, the Cerro series is a symbol of Yamaha's long-selling models. Y's Gear has been selling gold-rimmed wheel assemblies for the 2018 B7C1 and 2020 B7C4 models, and has now released new silver and orange-rimmed wheels. Both colors are the factory colors at the time, so they can be installed to match the vehicle body color, or you can enjoy a different customization by changing the combination of body and rim colors from the factory ones. Deep riders can also install a set of tires with different characteristics as a spare set, and change the entire wheel depending on the course setting. Like the SR wheels, the Cerro wheel assemblies come with bearings, oil seals, and even brake discs for the front wheels, so they can be bolted on by simply installing tires, tubes, and rim bands.

For long-time riders, the spare parts are also very significant.

The new products from Wise Gear, such as wheel assemblies and front and rear fender sets, which are difficult for individuals to assemble from parts, are attractive because they are immediately useful for refreshing your car, but they are also useful as spare parts for owners who want to continue riding their SR or CELLO 250 for a long time. The SR case covers and fenders are cheaper than sending parts that have deteriorated over time and are in poor condition to be polished or re-plated (because they are new, of course), and the wheel assemblies are safer and more secure than dealing with used parts at Internet auctions, considering that the brake discs and driven sprockets are also new. It is safer and secure. SR400 and Cerro 250 owners should definitely pay attention to Wise Gear's accessories.
