Damn - why is this so tempting

[mmisterbungl]

So clean and classic looking...

1980 Yamaha 100 motorcycle

Very tempting and looks like it should run. You should get it and get it running, if you don't like it, sell it for a nice profit!

thats about retail, my brother has one and he can keep up with most 125cc and 185cc bikes

Becuase your addited to the hobby.
That's a clean one for its age, It's not all beat up like a lot of them. They run good too. You could over him 250.

its a enduro the mx version has alot more torque.

Yep, not all cut up looking like the new ones.

I think it's a DT100 if I'm not mistaken, a great little motorcycle and the price is fair given the condition. They'll run forever if properly maintained like most of the Jap stuff, I love old enduros but like about a 175cc or bigger for serious riding. Still this is a decent deal if it runs as good as it looks.:thumbsup:

I offered 250. This is the same guy I missed that nice little kart with the hs35 on it a few weeks back. He said if it's not sold by saturday at his asking price I can take it for my offer.

thats not the enduro model. the enduro model was street legal and that sticker states it is not street legal

 

[mmisterbungl]

The guy finally gave in to my offer I guess. He called and told me to come get it in an hour :thumbsup: What am I thinking? This will make two motorcycles and 5 minis in a 1 car garage.

 

[minibikedude]

Yeah!, but think how much fun your going to have one it!

 

[mmisterbungl]

Very true.:laugh:
anyone know the gear pattern on these? I'm sure the owner knows nothing of that since he's never started it.

 

[minibikedude]

1 down 4 up just like a motorcycle.

 

[jesse8931]

i think its a 4spd

 

[minibikedude]

Should be 5 speed, I had a buddy with a couple of them and they were 5 speeds.

 

[jesse8931]

yea your right I was thinking of the 80cc models

 

[minibikedude]

Those are quick bikes for a air cooled 100cc, They will do 50mph with a adult on them.

 

[jesse8931]

I know my bro could keep up with my ts185 up into 5th gear then I could get away from him

This is the only video I could find
YouTube - 1974 ts185
