A friend recently gave me a pile of vintage magazines and after leafing thru. them I was surprised to learn that there was a model that preceded the MX250 - the 250 DT-1M.

I sold a 73 MX250 on Ebay once and I still have a side panel or two laying around somewhere.Don't have that one but do have the 360.

The '71 models were clearly GYT kitted enduros, the '72 models were the first mx.

I've never found a first or second generation YZ.Where did they all go?.
Probably all broke down. Typical Yamaha.
I have fresh pop corn.

I've played with vintage bikes for the last 15 or so years and,while I've stumbled across ultra rare bikes like Gilera 125 MXs and Carabela 250 Enduros, I've never found a first or second generation YZ.Where did they all go?.
They're being raced in AHRMA.
I know of 3 guys that have multiple YZa's including the uber rare 360, 580 made worldwide.
I myself only have the 125, this is the 4th one I've owned.
btw, No riding across the steet for a while.
They were spreading chicken "fertilizer" yesterday.
We had some horrendous rains last night and more expected today so maybe it will wash in.
Of course, that just means the grass will grow and I won't be able to see any big obstacles in the grass
