Yamaha Other description

A great opportunity to buy an extremely nice, very original, running, titled 125 Yamaha Enduro!!!  The one you drooled on when you were a kid.

This bike makes you smile just staring at it!!

I just don't know how this beauty survived 40 years without being crashed, beaten, "stripped down to save weight", etc....It's a  Good bet this bike was never in the hands of some kid!!!

Somewhere along the decades...it  appears someone may have re -painted the cylinder black. All the red and grey/silver is original

Make no mistake... this bike is screaming bright red... the early morning sun made it look a little washed out in some pics.

Clean Michigan Title
2929 Miles!!!!!
Runs nice and shifts, stops ,idles correct too.   Does not have that "I've been beat to death" piston slap. Nice tight engine
Build date 12/74   titled as a 1976

Lights and guages work as does the electric start. Battery is a bit weak

please note seat has a rip that I fixed with some Black silicone.

Underseat very nice and clean. seatpan nice and original paint. seatfoam nice shape not rotted
Oil injection intact and working
Bars not original but nice
hand controls and buttons in great shape.. no broken buttons

bike appears to have "never been beaten, extremely dirty, drug thru mud bogs, etc". It's never been "a rusty mess"

I believe the tires are original... there is some dry rot but hold air just fine.
spokes are in nice shape... rims are very nice... but do notice the 2 inch spot on the right side of the front rim where the chrome is scraped..  Beyond that... rims and spokes are very nice and shine with nice luster

The paint gleams and there is no fade
The is an ever so slight crease in the top of the tank..... will try to get a picture but it's so faint. I mean it;s slight!!
front fender in great shape.. slight amount of paint flaked off the top.. slight... but not broken, cracked, tweaked or fixed.

Headlight ears straight and never tweaked... how did that happen?

pipe and silencer and heat guard all in nice shape

happy to answer question or take special pictures

overseas sales just fine with me, I will work with your shipper

This is a very original example of this iconic early enduro... I bet you'd be hard pressed to find another un-restored one around in this kind of crisp, clean condition

No vintage bike ad is complete without the word "patina"... this bike has less patina than you would expect!!!  There... I used the word!!

NO PAYPAL FOR ENTIRE PURCHASE UNLESS YOU ARE PAYING THE FEE!!  300.00 IMMEDIATE DEPOSIT REQUIRED and please contact me asap after listing is over. Thanks

Yamaha Announces AMA Road Racing Teams For 2013

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Today, Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA, has announced its U.S. road racing teams to compete in the 2013 GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Racing season, which kicks off in March at the famed Daytona International Speedway.  Superbike In the AMA Pro National Guard Superbike division, Yamaha is fielding “Team Josh,” as three-time and defending class champion, Josh Hayes once again teams up with Josh Herrin, the 2012 AMA Rookie of the Year. Despite setting single-season records for the most SuperBike wins, the most consecutive SuperBike wins, and the most SuperBike poles, the elder Josh hasn’t lost any of his competitive fire. During the off-season, Josh signed a two-year contract to stay with Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha because he loves the team and he still feels that he’s got a lot of unfinished business to attend to.

Brammo Earns Seventh Place Against Gas Bikes

Mon, 06 May 2013

This past weekend, Brammo arrived to Sonoma Raceway in Central California ready to do battle. Only this time the electric sportbike manufacturer would be trading blows not with other electric bikes, but with their ICE counterparts at the second round of the American Federation of Motorcyclists series — one of the oldest club racing organizations in the country. We recently mentioned Brammo’s eligibility with AFM, and this weekend was the first outing. Team Icon Brammo and its two riders Eric Bostrom and Steve Atlas competed on the Empulse RR machines while third rider, Shelina Moreda, rode the Team Parker Brammo Empulse TTX — a modified version of the road-legal Empulse.

Yamaha Champions Riding School Returns To NJMP

Fri, 24 Jan 2014

Good news for those saddened to hear the Yamaha Champions Riding School would not return to Miller Motorsports Park in 2014: the school is back, now operating from New Jersey Motorsports Park. The change in venue doesn’t come without a slight change in the instructor lineup. Nick Ienatsch and Ken Hill will still lead the way, joined by Mr. Daytona himself, Scott Russell, but a new addition to the star-studded instructor lineup has also been added: none other than Larry Pegram.
