How's that for a cheesy catch phrase to get you to look at this poor guy I picked up this wkd:twisted:. Local cycle/atv shop owner I know got it in a "package" deal and didn't want to mess with it, so after some friendly bantering I became the new owner. I guess someone liked yellow better than red. Wanna try to see if the motor will run (it does turn over) and if so it will get shelved for future use. Fenders look solid but who knows what I'll find under the yellow paint. Tank is clean inside, but again there's that yellow paint. Best part frame comes with a title which he had in hand but forgot to get previous owner to sign. That will be taken care of in a few weeks. No recoil, seat cover is sad (but pan looks solid) but still has tool kit. Will probably start a classified thread once I get the engine diagnosed as usable or parts and get it torn down. Check out the custom fork boots!:crazy:

Second option is where I'm at Mik. Down the line I'd like to build an auto X

Just put some Yamaha decals on it and flip it.

I'm thinking the PO was a New Holland fan with the yellow/red theme. I sure hope to see those fork covers are available in the store soon ;-)

Can I sign you up for the first pair Pete? I think I can reproduce them fairly cheap!
