Yamaha JT1 description

This is a very original, unrestored 1971 Yamaha JT1 in Desert Orange. It was owned by Jim Moon of Jim Moon Yamaha in Springfield, Missouri and was purchased from his estate after he passed away. Speaking to the family, we believe the bike to be in original, unrestored condition. The only item I can see that might have been replaced are the tank emblems as they appear to be later model versions. Other than that, the bike is in original condition right down to the Nitto tires! The mileage is unknown as these were not fitted with an odometer from the factory.

The bike runs and rides perfectly. The transmission is crisp and she usually lights off on the first or second kick. The oil injection pump works perfectly and there appears to be no issue with the mechanics of the bike.

The bike has not been offered to the public and is not currently for sale elsewhere so bid with confidence. Our shop specializes in restoration and modification of classic and modern motorcycles. We are a licensed Missouri dealer and have titles for all the bikes we list. Please feel free to contact us at any time for more information.
