1971 Yamaha DT1 Enduro 250

The vehicle is a 1971 Yamaha DT1 Enduro 250 motorcycle, a timeless classic hailing from Wyoming in the United States. Its striking appearance features a deep metallic orange paint job and a black powder-coated frame, giving it a robust and eye-catching look that truly embodies its off-road spirit. This iconic two-stroke enduro bike has received meticulous care under its current American owner who purchased it in 2020. The engine, a 246cc two-stroke single, was overhauled and overbore during an extensive refurbishment completed recently in summer 2023, ensuring the motorcycle's performance is as legendary as its design. To feed the hunger of its two-stroke powerplant, a Mikuni carburetor was rebuilt to maintain smooth operation on varied terrains. Despite this historical machine having spent its youth tearing through wild trails, it presents itself remarkably well for its era, showing off its endurance and ready-for-action stance with the pride of a true Yamaha icon.
