SUMMARY

Owned and built by a respected member of the FS1E Club, this wonderful Special is fitted with a YB100 engine and many upgrades, a very quick little lightweight bike.

DESCRIPTION

  • Yamaha’s ever-popular sports moped was introduced in 1973 and still numbers a huge following. This super example is fitted with a tuned 97cc YB100 engine and numerous upgrades
  • Based around a 1988 FS1E frame, it's powered by a Yamaha YB100 97cc engine which was fully re-built by our vendor, a collector and restorer of FS1Es
  • The frame has been powder-coated and the bike features an RD50 front-end and lots of other performance mods
  • Built as a bike to ride, this pretty 'special' is very quick indeed and is reported to cruise at 70mph
  • Stunningly presented in Candy Gold with Black 'Speedblocks' and in simply outstanding condition
  • Showing just 2,475 miles since its comprehensive restoration, it is well known within the FS1E Club and has been featured in several magazines
  • One of the best we have ever seen, this is a unique Yamaha FS1E Special that presents superbly and is in excellent running order
  • Supplied with its current V5C, old MOT certificates, magazine articles, and invoices etc..
