Description
This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Motorcycle Sale at Shuttleworth - Summer 2025 on Sunday the 20th of July, Shuttleworth, Old Warden Park, Beds, SG18 9EP .
A nimble, sporty bike considered a direct predecessor to the popular RD200 series
Aimed at the commuter determined to have some fun on the way to the office
Powered by a lively 197cc (200cc class) air-cooled, two-stroke parallel-twin offering 22bhp and 85mph
Featured both an electric starter and Yamaha's reliable 'Autolube' oil-injection system
This 1971 example appears to be an older restoration that still presents well in 'Popsicle Purple' with white coachlines
With our vendor for a fairly short period but runs and rides and was started very recently
We understand that the gearbox is a bit 'clunky' and would benefit from an investigation
UK-registered on a current V5C
