Hi to the forum, which looks to be helpfully informative for my latest project, and first Yamaha.
I discovered it shown in this forum under previous ownership of Matt.
He optimistically claimed it being 99% completed except for a few wires, although it was purchased off ebay at a more realistic price with intention of a long term full restoration.
Its now been fully stripped after finding no lights, leaking forks and collapsed swing arm bearings. A worn front disc rotor, rusty chain and rear tyre will also require replacement, but the engine proved itself a runner with low mileage.
