That looks to be a real beauty, it almost looks like a new restoration. Have you had it long?

I've had it about 3 years, it hasn't been restored other than a set of mufflers. The original mufflers were starting to show bulging from interior rust that you see on a lot of Yamaha's.

Inquiring minds is all, it is at least fairly low.
paint looks amazing for original!

It's probably in the first third of production. Ser. # 002373

The paint is very good but with the typical fading on the tank you see on early Yamahas

Did you add the blinkers?

What a beauty! And it helps answer a question about my '73 TX. Clutch cable routing is where that of my TX "wants" to go. Tried between the carburetors but is most comfortable on the outside of the left carburetor as in your photos............Wesley

According to the original owner they were on the bike at the dealer when he bought it, I'm the second owner.

Glad the pictures helped with the routing.

Fab looking bike, would you ship to the UK?

 

[Vincenthdfan]

I've got one just like it, all original, purchased it from its original owner. I think thats a pretty reasonable price, they're getting harder and harder to find...especially in that nice of condition.

Yes, I would assist with your shipper.

Thanks, I think it's a fair price. The only reason I'm selling is I have a 1972 GS650 (with factory 750 barrels), one of 200 made to fulfill the AMA homologation rule so King Kenny could race against the 750 Harleys

GS650 very cool.
Would it be possible for you to post pics of it?
What I would like to see is a pic of the cylinder barrel that shows the cc's.
