For sale is a classic Yamaha CS5E, the fore runner to the RD200. This is a superb classic air-cooled twin shock two-stroke twin that is highly collectible, and it comes in the best colors. The bike is 50 years old and a great investment opportunity. It is 99.5% standard and unmolested, making it very rare.

This 1973 bike was first registered in the UK on April 1, 2022, and it has matching numbers. It has only 2235 miles on the clock and comes with a full V5 for the new owner, making registration hassle-free. The bike is tax and MOT exempt and comes with the original Yamaha key plus two spares, an original Yamaha parts list, and a Haynes workshop and service manual.

The bike is totally standard, unrestored, and unmolested, except for the pattern mirrors. It is in excellent, very clean condition with no scrapes, scuffs, or dents. The rims, exhaust, forks, seals, and center stand are all in very good condition. The bike starts on the button or kickstart and runs and rides fine. It has new batteries and new tires but will need a service and check-over as there is no service history.

The only blemishes on the bike are the two crankcase side covers, which need some black paint touch-ups. It is hard to spot, but new silver Yamaha end cover badges are included in the sale.

All two-stroke motorcycles are increasing in value rapidly, especially original and pretty ones like this bike. It is rare to find one in such excellent condition.

Viewing is not a problem, and a £250 deposit is required with the balance paid in cash on collection or via bank transfer. The seller is located 10 minutes from J15 M1 and can personally deliver the bike to your door at a very reasonable cost. Please ask for a price.

Finally, please check the seller’s feedback and comments as a seller and buy with total confidence.
