Though it is a very old bread of bike from Yamaha, but it has been very great in the performance in the early days and it was sold a lot.

Beautiful, good job on saving it as well. I love people who take their time, money and effort to preserve motorcycling history.

I guess it shares the same motor as the DT80MX?

So sad that you had to sell it. I'm far too tempted to bid on it, but unfortunately one old bike is as much as I can handle with my budget and limited tools/skill at the moment Sad

Auction is here for those interested.
