Yamaha Other description

I bought this bike in Vegas in 2012. It is race ready, wire tied, etc. This bike starts on first kick!  I added a side stand, brake light and tag and ride it on the street. They can hear me coming! Matching numbers Cafe racer which runs perfectly. Very fast machine in Kenny Roberts race colors with low mileage and DG exhaust. These Yamaha's are becoming very collectible.

The five-cylinder grand prix machine never achieved much success on the world stage, but will easily make you the center of attention at your local trackday.
