| Supposedly kids were just copying their favorite
motorcycle racers by converting their Schwinns into what was to be know as a 'BMX Bike' so
who better to make a production BMX bike other than the companies who the kids were
modeling their bikes after and here comes the Yamaha Moto Bike! Here is a 1974 "A Model" Yamaha Moto bike sent in and owned
by Jeffrey Venekamp. Check out the rear fender... not to many of these still have
them!
I've never seen the 10speed style seat on the Moto Bike and I
thought that this one was not original untill Jeffrey sent me a photo of the seat. |
