Hi

not a Yamaha owner, but asking here on behalf of a friend. 

 

‘E’ reg YSR50. 

Has been garaged for at least 30 years after the owners son sadly lost his life after coming off bike with a friend aged just 17. (Not this bike). 

So has sat in garage ever since due to emotional attachment. But he’s moving now and can’t take with him. 

 

Had a look at it today and it says 20k miles on clock. Is rough but may be something someone would want as a project. 

 

is this something that you’d think would be wanted? Obviously needs full restoration. Owner says they aren’t many in the country (or at least not at the time of purchase, which was 1989). 

Location: near Norwich 

 

would appreciate any comments. 

thanks

That just seems a recent issue, for me anyway.

I got around it by putting the pic on fb and copying it there

called a gag bike

That is a very nice little project for someone. Appears to be all there, easy strip down. Being small and compact would be great even for a small workshop/shed.

E Reg 1987/88...based on the current 40year exemption that will be Tax and MOT free in 7 years time.

Might not be something that will be ridden around much once restored but would make a excellent 'showpiece' for someone.

Try that?

p.jpeg?fv_content=true&size_mode=5

 

p.jpeg?fv_content=true&size_mode=5

p.jpeg?fv_content=true&size_mode=5

You're probably wondering how i did that?

I hacked the Main frame using a Trace program after I went down the rabbit hole......hang on!.....back to the Real World.....it wasn't as exciting as that!!.....

I initially clicked on the dropbox link which took me to the dropbox photos

then right clicking over the image I picked "Copy image link" from the menu

and inserted that link into my post and the photo came up within my post.

 

Hope that helps.

How odd!, I can see them in mine and in your reply post Snake. Yet if i click on the actual photo of my post  I get a Dropbox410 error. Not sure what a 410 is,! same as a 404 I guess😆

I'm using Firefox if that makes any difference.?

 

Its even more perplexing as they have now disappeared from mine too!!!....I wonder if Dropbox are offline?

Can't be Firefox, I use that too...

I re-embedded them this morning, they appeared again, but now they've disappeared again.. I did the same with Chrome and the same thing happened. They appear for a few minutes, but the link fails.

Must be a Dropbox related problem, I'd recommend re-uploading them into Flickr as recommended by YOC.
