1975 Yamaha DT250 Enduro

This 1975 Yamaha DT250 Enduro, hailing from the rural community of Hickory Corners in New York, stands out as a vintage jewel from Japan's motorsports era. Manufactured nearly five decades ago and recently repainted in vibrant orange with white and black graphics, this classic enduro bike boasts a powerful over-bored 246cc two-stroke engine coupled to a reliable five-speed transmission. Its distinctive features include rare wire-spoke wheels measuring 21" and 18", adjustable shocks for optimal handling on diverse terrains, and a classic drum braking system for steady halts. The DT250 also incorporates useful accessories such as street lights, a Mikuni carburetor ensuring smooth fuel delivery, and a high-mount exhaust system facilitating better maneuverability in rough off-road conditions. Despite its sturdy build, it retains a charming simplicity with the inclusion of an old-school kick starter. Truly, this piece of motorcycle history embodies Yamaha's classic design philosophy: rugged reliability combined with timeless style.
