Picked up 1976 Yamaha DT400 enduro
#7
I picked up one of these (1980 DT100) for about 500 bucks a few years ago, just to have something fun to ride around the neighborhood and explore some local fire roads. It had a very narrow and peaky powerband and needed to be shifted a lot, but you could start it with your hand. Top speed going downhill with a tailwind was maybe 60 mph. Maybe not. I concluded it was taking up space and sold it about a year later. I agree with Ferret -- I prefer the styling of the earlier models too.
