Gary Bashor's 1971 Yamaha DT1 Gary said: I acquired this bike in a multiple bike/boat trade from a friend. It was a pretty much "ridden hard - put away wet" sort of bike. But it had great period correct bones. MX suspension, Akront shouldered rims, stripped out electrics, plastic fenders - what an early racer might have done to be competitive with a mere enduro. The bike's design changed several times over the build, but ultimately I see it as a "Gravel Tracker". Maybe a custom scrambler is the more in vogue term. In any event, here she is! |
