Hello all, Just wanted to share my 78 SRX with you all cause I am so stoked!!
After collecting Yamaha sleds now for about ten years I always wanted an older SRX but just never come across them being here in California they are just rare. I drive by this same house a million times and one day sitting in the driveway I spot it, 1978 SRX and a 79 Enticer. I immediately go to the door and ask about them. These two sleds came with the house when he bought it in 1988 and have been in the dilapidated barn ever since, He just moved them out the day before cause he needed space and wanted them gone. He told me to make an offer and before I could say anything he said "just give me fifty bucks and they are yours" Let's just say money flew from my wallet and the deal was made. Brought them home, poured a liberal amount of premix down the holes and popped right off! It was last registered in 86 and has 1522 miles on it. Does have some aluminum issues and one broken head stud but all there and stock, hood and seat are very nice.
