Pete’s Marina decal on that taillight lens (about 99% sure)My dad sold that bike when it was new. Outdoor toys for grown up boys

[@thejunkyardnecromancer]

For real!? I'd love to know more!

[@MyWatchChannel]

@@thejunkyardnecromancer well Pete’s at one time was the largest yamaha dealership in the US. My Dad was the sole salesman. And was the manager. I pretty much grew up there spending my summers climbing all over the bikes lol.

motor yamaha dt top in the world i love you 👋😍😘👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Never leave an engine outside with no plug in ! 2 years is very naughty and always put lots of clean oil down plug hole , kick over a couple of times and replace plug when leaving for years 👍 Sorry if I sound like your Momma !!😁 They are pretty much like a de-tuned YZ400 = mega torque and will vibrate your hands off the bars . Ace fun look forward to seeing you flip it when it has a nice rebore and new piston 😁 nice to watch cheers 👍👍👍👍👍

[@thejunkyardnecromancer]

Thanks for watching! And yeah, I learned the hard way about leaving the engine open haha.

Rings about to be spat out of tailpipe !!!

Feel sorry for anyone who ends up with one of your old bikes! #bodgeitandscarper!

[@greghujing5692]

What do you think one of those bikes are worth not running been sitting for years I want to make it off with my friend because he has one for sale appreciate to hear back from you

[@thejunkyardnecromancer]

Depends on the condition. I think a bear up one that doesn't run is worth a couple hundred dollars. A fully restored one is probably worth a couple thousand.

[@Highspeedoffset1]

If you give somebody something, It won't be valued. That nice old machine will get destroyed.

[@thejunkyardnecromancer]

Well, it's already destroyed haha.
