Quote from: grcamna3 on June 11, 2025, 02:50:13 PMIs the LS2 an updated version of the old Twinjet?
I love the LS2 style better.


It's more of like a miniature R5.

A freind with multiple vintage Yamaha sub 200cc 2t bikes has recently bought a nice running one but with no title. $1000, he says it was a steal
The going price I've seen for nice titled ones is $2500-3500
Bringing mine back from the dead. I paid $400 for it with a parts bike. No title. I'll likely have over $1800 in it when done and titled. That is without paint or chrome.

Pretty good.
 They are capable bikes.
 A few weeks ago on a Tiddler ride I was on a 69 YL5 3 speed with hi-lo range.
 We were on some pretty serious hills at times. 45-50 on the flats in high gear. Staying in the hi range I was in 2nd gear for most hills at 15-20mph. You really had to keep the rpms up. When you shifted to 3rd it was like being on a 5 speed bike and shifting from 3rd to fifth. The gear ratio spread was crazy.

Haus of Projects / Uneccessary Baggage
March 20, 2025, 10:47:55 PM
Not sure why I feel it neccessary to haul things home I obviously do need.
 It must be a desease or sickness.
Evidence in this case are these two carcasses that I should have let continue their destination to the scrapyard.
But the Marketplace ad drew me in like a moth to the flame.
 "2 bikes for sale or scrap. $50 for all"
 What a sucker I am.
A couple Bultacos
 One with wheels is a 74? model 137 250 Alpina
 The other is a 75? model 97 125 Alpina
Both have stuck motors.
 I'm an idiot.

But all OK here, I'm a little over 30 miles down the coast from the Palisades. And the wind is starting to kick up again. It's supposed to get pretty strong over the next few days but nothing like we had early last week.

Thank God
 Glad to hear you made out.
