Yamaha Other description

I have a Yamaha Zuma 50cc, it's been great, I'm the 2nd owner. When I got it, it was all stock. My friend and I have modded some of the components because we love mopeds and motorcycles. I have gotten a new rear tire, with still about a cm of tread on. The moped has 48xx miles on it at the moment. It's worth well over $1000 but I need to buy a truck asap so I'm selling this at $1000 just because of how badly I need the money for the truck. Mods:Both headlamps are on 24/7.New BatteryNew rear tireThrottle Mod (tops out at 44 downhill)Soon to get a performance air filterTail light mod (took off old turn signals, modded them in the break light like a crotch rocket)Before mods:38 mph top speed50mpgLooked alright(I'm forgetting some of the mods, but it's just great now, much better than stock)After mods:44 mph top speed60-70 miles-per-gallonTons of torqueLooks and runs nothing like a moped anymore, it's a mini motorcycle now.Interested? Call or text any time! Thanks

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
