That's a neat video. My boss took me to a Yamaha dealer conference that showed 'that' video, & the fork flex freaked us all out haha as i was already mx "scrambling" my "69. The video must be 1970-ish with the alloy sliders & round tube swinging arm. Thanks for posting.

Great video and thanks for sharing with us all. The front forks though on the big landing look like they were made of chocolate..!! Presumably that's why Yamaha increased their fork diameters on later models.
