Might need a few more details. Is a Gammaha the same as a YammaGamma, ie. an RG250 with an LC/YPVS motor ? Plenty of those been done before, a lot of 'em stick with standard Suzuki running gear. Later RGV transplants should be relatively straightforward too if you want an upgrade. Just fit the whole front-end rather than mess about making odd bits from different bikes fit together. Although Suzuki parts are more interchangeable than most.
You'll need to tell us what you're planning to build. "Gammaha" could be a Yamaha Passola with an RG500 motor... |

Ok lets start again now im on a laptop not a tablet
yes i stand corrected I honestly thought from 1987 the PB article called it a gammha
think I have most things covered as follows
forks I now have decided to use the MK3 forks after reading the article in this months bike mag was worried the the clip ons under the yolk would clash with the MK2 fairing
NK for the spacers and plates
guidelines is meant to say fuel lines now ths has got me confused do you need to split after the tap
also I have nearly a full bike to sell will be posting in for sale soon
Thanks to all |

On mine, I split the fuel line after the tap to a "Y" to feed each carb equally. |

Need to get it insured then on the road , was built from bits I had lying around
A tidy up bike
Y piece for the fuel hose , and your engine plates may not fit , I had to drastically mod the rear mount on mine

Please enlighten me on the engine plates was yours from NK made to the dims given in the PB article has any one else had these probs fitting the engine the spare frame has had the mounts on the rear altered but the heathen who owned it at some time cut the back end of the frame off why do people butcher frames beyond sense and reason |

I made my own plates to the magazine article sizes , 26mm pitch iirc
Ended up being near 13 mm when finished , and could still do with going 3-4 mm higher , however it's a mk1 frame with a 4l1 non tiebar motor , this aside I've never had issues fitting lc and pv motors in the opposing frames before
The other issue with the 4l motor is it's a real PITA to get the top end off
If your fitting a valvie motor you may not have these issues

They probably cut the frame to run a seat like mine
Hacksawing still to be done
As for finish on the frame , I just left mine as is , it wasn't too bad , if I redo it I will probably get it powder coated in a similar colour to the anodised stock finish
Bodywork is up to you , mines going Marlborough white / flouro after the tz faring goes on
