Been away a while, sorry guys. Been battling cancer. Almost lost 3 times but recovering now. I've been hospitalized 3 separate times, had chemo, radiation, surgery and now immune therapy. Still need more plastic surgery, but have to wait for tumor to shrink, go into recession of die completely. Glad to see the site still operational. Anyone know what the paint colors for 1970's dual purpose two strokes. Thanks in advance.

I hope that things clear up for you and you feel better.

Yamaha sure created a bunch of good looking colors. Seems a guy could pick any one of them.

I like the DT3 green color and the DT125A. The other day I saw LT2 color on a DT3. Looked good!
1974 Yamaha DT125A
1974 Yamaha DT360A with SP96 Exhaust
Next…196x-197x Yamaha something.

Yeah PABDT, many nice colors. My '74 360 Enduro is Sierra Pine and the '78 DT125 is Leaves Green. I am trying to match a '73 Suzuki TS185 for a friend of mine. his lady thinks that she wants a matching bike. I believe that the color is YU1, Champion Yellow. I know that Yamaha had Competition Yellow, which is close. ColorRite has the kit (paint and clear coat) for $70, but I'll need to use 2X fuel resistant for the fuel tank, so I'm just trying to locate just the paint. I'll 2X everything else, since I'll need to use it up right away. Thank you for the response and well wishes.
