| Publisher Description: There is no better early exemplar of Japanese bike engineering than the Yamaha YR5. It reached a top speed of 95 mph - from a mere 350cc. Yamaha bikes, though, soon gained a reputation for staying intact. Certainly, the YR5's handling and braking were assorted as its acceleration. Styling-wise, the bike was pleasingly neat and tidy. When a competitive price-tag was placed on all that, sound sales figures for the Yamaha YR5 were pretty much assured. This book is about a story of restoring a 1970 Yamaha YR5 with words and pictures. The history of the successes and disasters on my retirement project in the hope that it helps or amuses others engaged on a similar task. A brief history of the marque and model is included. Hope you enjoy the book. |
