FOR SALE The most original Yamaha DT50MX with an incredible 415 miles from new. EQUIPMENT Monoshock chassis, triangulated box section swinging arm, De Carbon-type single shock absorber with gas/oil damping, telescopic long travel front forks, dual seat, 25/25W headlamp, speedometer, ignition switch incorporating park light, turn signal switch, headlight switch, neutral indicator, two-stroke oil light, horn, rear footrests, fuel valve, steering lock, rear luggage rack, helmet holder. EXTERIOR Absolutely untouched and original which for a bike having covered just 415 miles is a wonderful claim! All plastic faring and mud guards are undamaged with factory decals and the gloss Black fuel tank gleams brightly with no dings and still with the silver check sticker attached. The factory original flat Red dual seat is unmarked with the vibrant white Yamaha logo proudly on display, and the motocross leading axle front forks have perfect red rubber gaiters. The frame number is clearly legible and along with all other exposed metal areas such as the box-section swinging arm, wide braced handlebars, and high-level exhaust system with heat shield, shows signs of aging. This has been left entirely untreated to uphold absolute factory originality and does not detract from the ‘wow factor’ this bike generates when seen. Since discovery in 2019, the bike has been annually treated to ACF50 to preserve it. All electrics function correctly, and the handlebar control stickers are clear and undamaged. Could this be the lowest mileage untouched Yamaha DT50MX in existence? ENGINE & TRANSMISSION The heart of the DT50MX is a free revving 49cc, air-cooled two-stroke single developed from the Yamaha Motorcrossers. Power is delivered smoothly over the whole rev-range thanks to the reed valve Yamaha Torque Induction System. Autolube automatic lubrication that is throttle linked to deliver a precise quantity of oil according to the engine needs. The 5-speed transmission is smooth and precise. WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES The full-size Takasago wheels measuring 21-inch front and 18-inch to the rear are in amazing condition with a mirror chrome finish and are still shod in the factory supplied block pattern tyres. These are 2.50-21 4PR front and 3.00-18 4PR rear in size. Lightweight conical wheel hubs house the Yamaha designed labyrinth seal drum brakes to make them completely weather-proof to maintain full stopping power in the toughest conditions and are fully operational. HISTORY FILE This iconic learner legal trials bike was supplied by J.E Clarkson Motor Cycles Ltd in Carlisle to a Mr John Gamble and registered on the 3rd October 1990. Used for one month only before being placed in his shed. There is remained for 29 years before being discovered by a house clearance company in 2019. Sold to a serial bike collector who stipulated the bike must remain untouched and not even cleaned so that he could sympathetically return it to road worthy condition while keeping everything absolutely original. This aim has been achieved and the bike now looks and rides amazingly well and ready for any appreciative bike collector wanting the purest DT50MX experience. HPI clear.
