I had one back in the day. Anybody on here have one? Let's see it so I can dream a little. I have a ton of fond memories of that bike. Tony |

I just picked up a 1974.5 yz125b. Yellow vs. silver I think is the only real difference. I think I am going to go through the motor and see where that takes me. Maybe to the vintage track for a little high revving fun? It actually fires right up now, but I can't imagine the previous owner ever did any engine maintenance. I didn't have one of these when I was a kid, but my first bike was 1978 dt100 - stripped off the lights, and painted it yz yellow. Okay, John Deere yellow. But it had the yz stickers anyway. This yz sure has a lot in common with the dt, or with the newer RT100's for that matter. Have fun day dreaming! |

Postup some pics as you can. btw-I went to an AHRMA national in NC earlier this year and a 125a whipped butt! It was a beautiful thing to see. A close battle with an Elsinore. |

I haven't been on this board in a while, a loooong while. I picked up 2 YZ125A's along with a bunch of other bikes since my last post. It's true, you get what you really want. |
