Very cool... I love these bikes from the 1970s. I restored a 1972 Yamaha DS7 250, but had to sell it when I moved south. I miss it dearly. I'll have to watch your progress on this!
I've got a couple earlier models of the DS7, A YDS3 Catalina and a YDS3C Big Bear. They both need work as well. Maybe I'll get to them while I'm still ambulatory.
@@oldguysoldbikes Yup... Do what you can while you can. That's why I'm restoring a 1958 Austin Healey "Bugeye" Sprite over on my channel. It's a dirty thankless job, but somebody has to do it...

Great catch on what caused the loss of spark!!!
It's a really nice bike Jack. Hopefully a new key will sort it out.
Best wishes, Dean.
It didn't
That sure is a sharp looking ol enduro. I'm sure you'll get it sorted
I will, or die trying.

As long as the woodruff landing is not wallered out, you should be ok when the new one is installed.
That's what I'm counting on.
Looks like them shocks are toast
I didn't notice that until I started editing the video. It looks like the plunger might be bent. I'll check it out further in the next video.
@@oldguysoldbikeslooks like there is no damping as if there is no oil in them or valving is damaged
hi, Jack
Hey Jack
