1972 Yamaha RT2 360 Enduro - Complete frame off restoration
Purchased from the estate of the original owner and restored to new condition. This bike was last licensed on the street in 1975.

Replace wrist pin and bearing - Paint with engine enamel and reassemble 5) Oil pump - Cleaned and inspected original oil pump, drive gear and seal and reinstalled - Replace oil pump hoses, purge system - Refill with 'smokeless' oil and verify proper operation 7) Tachometer - Install replacement tach drive gear and seal, inspect for proper operation 8) Ignition - Replace and set points and adjust engine timing - Replace spark plug wire and cap.

The dealer certifies that the systems are operable and meet State standards. Then I could title it for the street. In other words, everything including the electrical has been checked once by my mechanic and also by a certified dealer (Seattle Cycle). This bike starts like it should, rides like it should and looks like it should. Does not leak a drop of oil on my garage floor. Has Washington collector plate - never needs tabs again. I can deliver at no charge this RT2 to a Seattle area shipping location to help the buyer as necessary. |
