Diff'rent Strokers

[bobbyboy]

A 40 plus year dream finally realised.

In 1984, I was a youthful 16 year old on a DT50 MX, riding every moment possible.

Met a few mates at a local Yamaha dealer, where I first clapped eyes on an LC2/31k on a plinth in the showroom. I was in love.

But I never managed to own one, a couple of F2's, but not this model. Every so often over the years I'd have a look around to buy one but nothing came of it, until March last year.
I'd been looking instead for a 350LC 4LO, and found one I thought was the one to have, viewed it and decided to buy it, when I was sent an advert for this one by my daughter.
Immediately I dropped the 4LO idea for now and plumped for this.

It's not mint, needs some love and attention, but it's important bits are almost all there. It came with the standard pipes wrapped up, but is fitted with Allspeeds expansion.
I believe they've recently been ceracoted (spelling?)
This was the pipe I loved on my RD125LC at 17, so it would have to be on a future LC purchase too. Need to get some original stickers on them as they're missing.
