Yamaha Other description

Howdy, Have this near bone stock 1974 DT250 my lousy back won't let me ride anymore, so here ya go.  All original except rear turn signals, the tool kit is still under the seat, amazing.  On original bore, rings still almost shiny, no seizure marks, ready to go and go and go.  Tires are about 3/4 tread left, oil injection system still working so no pre-mixing needed.  Nice that this model's sprockets can be flipped for double the life when needed in the future, these have 12K miles, not bad.  Chain outer links are rusty from when it sat out for a long time, chain itself I cleaned, only 1" stretch, still good.  No rust in tank, replaced fuel lines and filter.  Starts first kick (has a fresh plug), runs like a bat, embarrassingly fun with the low gearing that's on it, ring-ding it through the gears and you're only doing 50mph, fun.  Air cleaner is K&N type, needs an oiling.  Wheels are straight, no rust to speak of.  Only negative is seat, the pan rusted when sitting, I put the funky cover on it wears now.  Your butt won't know the difference. Not sure what else to say, except I'd put my grand kids on it, I consider it safe and sure.  AZ title notarized and ready to go.  Will consider using my van to deliver it once paid for at say a buck a mile one way?  Thanks, Bruce in Tombstone.  PS, might swap for a DSL, RPK or Dragonov with scope and extras, I'm an FFL.

Off-Road Riding on a Yamaha Zuma 125 [Video]

Mon, 24 Sep 2012

Off-road capability isn’t the first thing people consider when shopping for a scooter but it is one of the more surprising traits of the Yamaha Zuma 125. In his review of the Zuma 125, Tom Roderick says the scooter “radiates a more adventurous attitude” than most scooters, with its knobby tires and hand guards making it capable for the odd excursion off the pavement. But if you’re still not convinced, Yamaha‘s Taiwanese arm has released a video featuring the Zuma 125 (or BWS 125, as it is known internationally) getting rough and rugged in the dirt.
