The first bike produced by Yamaha in 1954 was the YA-1, but in typical Japanese fashion this was soon improved upon with the launch of the YA-2 in 1957. An immediate success, it began a long tradition of achievement that continues today in Moto GP and WorldSBK racing.
Launched in 1971 the Yamaha RT range invented a new genre of motorcycle, the trail bike,and soon all other manufacturers were copying the concept. This RT1 360 was imported from the USA in barn find condition and has undergone a restoration by the vendor. The frame has been powder coated, the engine rebuilt with OEM parts sourced in America, the forks rebuilt, paintwork refinished, seat recovered and new tyres fitted. The bike has not been ridden for about 6 months so will need a light recommissioning before use and it comes supplied with a dating letter and a current V5C.
