We found this one parked on the side of a country road. Seriously. Farmer said it quit running and sold it to us for a couple hundred bucks. Cleaned the spark plug and Voila!
Of course, that is just the beginning. Ask me in a year what we spent on it. :laugh:
My dad bought one of those new in blue. Exact same year and everything. Riding that around made me appreciate my DRZ400 a lot more. The yamaha had almost no suspension travel and the tires gripped like crayons.
You didn't happen to be at Road Atlanta this past weekend did you? Only reason I ask is that I was nearly made into a grease spot on the road by a DT on Saturday. Same color and everything. :glare:
You know how there is always a house in the neighborhood where abandoned kittens get dumped. That is turning into my house.
Found this on the doorstep this morning.
I know a lot of you aren't into scoots but this is a cool ride. 1981 Passport 70
It will be perfect for my daughter to ride to high school on.
Yeah, right, Mom.
Neato, Looks coolio to me
thanks for the info on the Yamha forum you posted under the pics of my son's DT 400 too. Found any other good parts/info sources for them??
Holy crap you totally have time to move me while i ride your Sherpa around right :001_cool: That looks like a lot completed in just one evening i suppose.
Is that a Honda 50 in the background???
That was my 2nd bike and the source of my first concussion when the front wheel went into a groundhog hole at full speed. :death:
Cool, looking good, keep us updated, I am following your project with much intrest as we havent done much to ours lately, waiting on a new instrument cluster and a couple other parts off ebay
Bling! Those Mexican guys at the chrome plate shop are awesome.
