Sorry for the want ad, I know some of you don't care for this place turning into a swap meet but I've been looking for a year or so now on ebay, CL and swap meets...so I thought I'd give you guys a try!! Whistling

Looking for a Webco Head to fit a '74 Yamaha MX360. Cool

Not sure if "Noguchi" ever made one for the MX360?Huh

Also interested in a decent front wheel, seat and right side panel for the same bike.

Thank you!!

Hopefully someone can help, I think you will need to post on as many forums
as you can find. The Webco heads were a good product imo, however I have not
seen a lot of usage beyond it being very popular on Hodaka's and early CR 125's
I had one on my 1978 RM 250 and it worked extremely well, it is the ONLY one I
have ever seen for that model though. Probably a much more popular mod for
earlier bikes like yours, let's hope-good luck!

Been a while but I have seen them for the 360 Yamaha. Is there a difference or will pretty much any 360 head fit? MX...DT?

Thanks Riv!! Cool

Newmann...I hadn't really thought of that but I'd assume a 73-74 DT360 Webco Head would work as well.Blink

Makes me wonder if an MX250 head could be milled to work on a 360?Huh

I know all of the 100,125 and 175 stuff all used the same bolt pattern. Not sure about the bigger bikes.

If the 250 head would fit it would most likely be tooooo much
compression, is the 360 head missing? If the head will actually
fit there are some places that can make the combustion chamber
work, also could repair the 360 if it needs major work as well.
Been awhile since I had Kelsey do some work but looks like he
is still goin strong, would recommend him:

BTW, the head will actually work better than the original do to
him upgrading the combustion chamber design & comp ratio
if you want that changed too. Might check with a dealership I
used to work at I the late 80's, they usually have a bit of salvage
and is priced right: http://www.sehornyamaha.com/ ask for
Mack.

I realize this is an old thread but I have an NOS WEBCO cylinder head for sale.

It came in the estate from my wife's cousin that passed away and I've been selling motorcycle & snowmobile parts and machines for the past 2 years.

If anyone is interested in it please contact me thru this site with a reply or PM, etc

Thanks, Danimage-20231114102757-2image-20231114102746-1
