This 1974 Yamaha DT125 Enduro is a great example of one of the most iconic motorcycles of the '70's. Yamaha's DT-Series Enduros were street-legal on and off-road bikes that were durable, practical, and highly economical. Maybe best of all, they were incredibly fun and easy to ride, and still are today.
This is an exceptionally well-cared for bike, is highly original, and shows pride of ownership. Bikes of this type were often neglected, left outdoors for years, and ridden relentlessly in all kinds of conditions. For those reasons, finding one in the condition this one displays is very rare these days. Ready to start, run, and ride anywhere, this is truly a rideable collectible that its new owner will find versatile and rewarding, much like in 1974.
