Yamaha YZ description

1983 Yamaha YZ 125K in excellent running condition.  I purchased this bike two years ago in original condition to race in vintage motocross races here in Florida.  I have had a blast racing it and have been fairly successful, frequently finishing in first or second in the 1980-1985 Open Class (all cc size bikes).  I now want to purchase a pre 1975 vintage motocross bike.  As you can see in the pictures, I use aftermarket number plates when I race as the originals are rare.  The aftermarket plates are not included with the bike.

1983 was a great year for the YZ 125.  Yamaha had figured out water-cooled engines by this point, as well as '83 being the first year for Yamaha Power Valve, which helps with low end torque as well as top end speed.

As I mentioned earlier, I bought this bike as an original survivor.  All plastics are OEM Yamaha that have been polished.  I get a ton of compliments regarding them.  The front fender is NOS, as this is the only piece of plastic that is still readily available. 

I have had all the following done to the bike since owning it.  All engine work professionally done by a vintage motorcycle shop here in Jacksonville, FL.  

-New top and bottom end to include cylinder bore, new piston and ring, and new crank and bearings.  Less than 5 hours. This alone cost $1500
-Complete Carburetor disassembly with cleaning and rejetting
-New original Reed Valves
-New water impeller with water seal
-All new engine gaskets
-Front forks and rear monoshock rebuilt
-New front and rear Michelin XC intermediate terrain tires with new tubes and rim locks
-New O-ring Chain 
-New Front and Rear Sprockets
-New Front Brake Cable
-New Air Filter

I do not have a title for it.  Ebay made me put something.
