Any YSR Fans on here?

My wife bought this YSR 80 from a Museum about 4.5 hours from us back in 2014. I had it running back then. Then it sat. She was nostalgic and wanted another as she got her motorcycle license riding one back in the late 1990's.

This one is a unicorn. Likely the lowest Milage/kms and most original of any in the world . Happy to see one with lower Kms.... All the original decals still on it. This one has 407 original Kms. 4 of which was me pushing it from home to the shop lol.

At any rate, after sitting for 9 years, I got it down to the shop to get it running. Drained the fuel, and gearbox oil. Flushed brake fluid. Primed and bled oil injection. Cleaned and lubed the chain. Installed a new battery. Rebuilt the carb and got it running.

What a hoot to ride. The bike fits her as she is 5' tall. I just fit and can ride it easily at my 5'10" height.

It looks good in our reception area.

We also have a second one disassembled that I really want to put a 125 motor into, just because....
