About the Yamaha RD200
Separate fork, final-drive and control applications on the RD200.
Yamaha’s period RD200 brochure describes its two-stroke engine and combined starter-generator. For a restoration, keeping that model identity clear is useful even when the immediate job is chassis maintenance. The parts here focus on the forks, front sprocket and handlebar controls, with application years that vary by component.
Check the drive and controls as complete assemblies
For a final-drive repair, compare the front sprocket mounting and tooth count, then check the chain specification and rear sprocket. For handlebar repairs, compare brake and clutch controls independently: their lever applications use different year groups. A replaced perch or front end can also change the part needed, regardless of the frame’s model year.
Know your model before choosing partsYamaha RD200 repair checkpoints
Use the complete model, year and fitted assembly. Each product has its own application and package contents.
Fork and sprocket range
The featured fork seals and 14-tooth front sprocket list RD200 1974–1976. Their applications do not confirm 1977 coverage.
Brake-lever year split
The brake-lever selection includes separate 1973–1975 and 1976–1977 listings. Compare the original lever and control before choosing.
Clutch lever
The linked clutch lever lists 1974–1976. Its years are independent of either brake-lever listing.
