Yamaha Other description

This is an absolutely beautiful example of a 1976 Yamaha DT2 Enduro.
This is what they looked like when they rolled off the showroom floor.
The '76 model was the last year of the twin shock, 250cc enduro and the
final evolution of a legendary motorcycle lineup that began with
Yamaha's Big Bear 250 in 1968. This motorcycle is absolutely complete --
right down to the turn signals, rear view mirror, tool kit and tires.
It has a clear title. Professionally restored and meant to be ridden,
not stuck away in a museum.
This bike was a one-owner, family motorcycle and only ridden 4100 original miles. But, for safety and reliability purposes, this motorcycle has undergone a frame-up restoration, with almost all original parts still intact. The engine has been completely renewed and serviced with new seals and gaskets. Fork seals have been replaced as well as the clutch cable, air filter, headlight bulb, stoplight bulb and turn signal bulbs. A new seat cover was also installed. The frame and metal components were painted. Other than that, this bike is all original. The wheels, exhaust, forks, shocks, electrical components and all other hardware were in excellent condition and re-installed on the bike after close inspection and servicing. The lights, speedometer and tachometer are original and work well. This is something you rarely see on bikes like this, because so many were stripped and converted to dirt bikes or raced off-road. This bike starts first kick and runs strong. When I was younger, I had many opportunities to ride new DT2s of this vintage and it runs just like a new one did over 40 years ago. I've had it up to 60 mph, but with the original tires, I didn't want to go any faster. I have a new set of tires that go with the bike, but many collectors prefer to have the original tires so I left them on. The only issue with the bike is the reset knob on the odometer is missing (a very common problem with all Yamahas of this vintage). I have one somewhere in my batch of Yamaha parts, but I haven't located it yet. If you are thinking about a dual purpose bike for buzzing around town or sticking on the back of your camper. This is perfect -- especially if you're a lightweight rider who would prefer a great-performing mid-sized bike over a much heavier and more expensive bike. Also great for a novice rider. Why spend $6k for a new dual-purpose bike when you can have an attention-getting classic that is virtually new, for much less. Buyer is responsible for delivery. I will work with buyer's shippers to ensure bike is picked up and safely loaded. |
