1970 Yamaha 350 Scrambler sold for $2,700 at the 2017 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction
very cool bike. it has the Yamaha tuning forks logo gas cap. twin cylinder 2 stroke high pipes left and right is what makes this bike so very great. you posted a lot of bikes so far from the auction that I love. if I had this Yamaha I would maybe use white Beston grips and a white seat sew just like stock, paint the bike solid darkish gray (not to dark) metal flake. no white tank sides. a lot of very good prices on a lot of these bikes. some of the bikes you posted are extremely high dollar bikes that would be too much responsibility. you would have to store them in a bank vault.
Brings back a lot of memories. In the 70,wishing I could afford one, but It never happened. So I dreamed about them and the brochures we would gather along with my friends.

ReplyDeleteThere were lots of great bikes at the auctions this year. Except for the very collectable models, most of the Japanese bikes were very affordable.
