LOT 443
Property of a deceased's estate, 1981 Yamaha QT50
Lot to be sold without reserve
Auction Estimate: £300 - £500
Property of a deceased's estate
1981 Yamaha QT50
Registration no. SFC 560X
Frame no. 5F3-001223
Engine no. 5F3-001223
The Yamaha QT50 'noped' (moped without pedals) was produced from 1979 through 1992. Boasting a top speed of around 30mph, the QT50 featured a 49cc two-stroke engine slung beneath a simple frame consisting of a single large-diameter steel tube. Its maintenance-free shaft-drive was contained in the single-sided swingarm.
This QT50 belonged to the lady vendor's late father, a motorcycle enthusiast who collected bikes for some 40-plus years. Sadly, he passed away in 2020, hence the decision to sell. Kept at home and ridden sparingly, the machine is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, its mechanical condition being unknown. The last tax disc expired on 28th February 1993; unfortunately, no other history is known. The Yamaha is offered with an old (part) V5 document showing the last change of keeper as 27. 2. 92.
