(not mine)
Interesting. Not something you see in the US. I believe it's a '76 model (1E8)
Looks like it's missing the stay on the taillight bracket (it looks a little odd sitting out in the breeze like that) and the correct mirrors. Don't recall if these had a badge on the brake caliper. But looks pretty decent overall.
Wonder how he "bored to 250" :busey:

Yamaha RD - $6,000 (Chatsworth)
Yamaha RD 200DX (bored to a 250) Great running bike with CA DMV paperwork. Electric start 2 stroke vintage motorcycle (quite fast). Front and rear tires are still in good condition, brakes work great - it was ridden one week ago. Has been garaged kept for the last 7 years and was kept in a warehouse on display before that. As far as I know the motorcycle is almost all original (battery and tires not original) Rear rim does have a small dent that can be seen but does not affect the riding style of the bike.
