Which drive shaft?

[islandjack376]

I have a 1997 Yamaha L200 outboard needing a new drive shaft. The model number on the motor is no longer readable. I see two drive shaft options in the diagrams: 6G5-45501-01-00 and 6G5-45501-21-00. How can I detirmine which shaft to order?

Was it manufactured in 1997 if so it maybe a 1998 model

Which drive shaft?

Thanks for responding. I believe it is a 1997 model - that is what is on the cover of the manual. Either way, the same two drive shafts are on the drawings.

6G5-45501-01-00 is for a L150 model
6G5-45501-21-00 is for a L200 model
