Yamaha 1st year collection purchase. was created by Phyllo

All I can think to say is, WOW, awesome bikes! What part of the country are you in? Were the new/old bikes local to you? Just curiosity questions... So, now you've got 2 '68's, apparently. Sorry, guessing you had a thread on the other, but don't remember.

Oh, I was thinking the other white bike in the pics was also a DT1, but that's the 125, I guess?

Got it, thanks! I kinda figured it out after looking at the pics more closely. My first "real" bike was a '71 AT1-C, I still can't believe the thrashing that thing took and just kept on going... I'm guessing your's will not endure anything like that...

Great collection I am very interested in the CT one. What do you think it would be worth I do have 69 at1 as original 1000 miles on it still have the nibs on the tire everything works of course nice one I’ve ever seen nothing ever has been touched. No screws screwed up. I will be selling that soon. I had a CT just like that of course have a great day.

Those are clearly exceptional bikes. I'm curious what you want for the CT1/RT1 combo. I guess you will post when you are ready

1969 Yamaha CT1 175
1974 Yamaha DT125A
1974 Yamaha DT360A with SP96 Exhaust
Next…196x-197x Yamaha something.

gorgeous bikes, so jealous, lol
Im restoring a 73 RT3 360, coming along very nicely, paint all done, doing some new wiring and various parts to make it original.

Wow, what an awesome RT1! The unmistakeable "throatiness" of the 360. Can't say I'm surprised that it fired right up.
Got a laugh from the horn test - my DT3's sounds the same...

Geez man, the old "good as new" truly applies to your bikes! Maybe better than new? Is that some kind of hang tag on your DT3?
