I have been seeing this Yamaha around the corner from MotoPreserve for a couple weeks now – and it looks like the NYPD has finally taken a notice too…
A couple tickets adorn this Yamaha, which I initially thought was a Seca from the ’80’s, but it’s missing the rear fairing, so I may be wrong. It has the standard seating position, 4 cylinders and the cool tank with factory knee-dents, but without the plastic rear cowling, I am not quite sure of the specific model.
If you are doing a restoration or rebuild, you know that stock side covers can be a bitch to source. Here is an alternative that can be had for $7, and some creative use of Duct tape.
If anyone knows the exact model of this bike, let us know…
