Love it. As long as it brings a smile to your face. My dad had one brand new. He said he had a Pissano(?) pipe on it an it went like a rocker (but very noisy)
In the spring of 1973 my dad bought me that exact same bike...I was 12 years old. Dealer said it was a 72 and so did the title. Ive had the same debate with another guy recently.
If serial # is between LT2-035101 & LT2-071760 it is a '73 no matter what date it was sold and titled as a '72. Nothing unusual for a bike made in Sept to be made for the following year sales. Japanese bikes were titled in the year sold until about 1973 and in 1976 the manufactures were required to designate a model year, which is usually seen on the frame neck. If it was my bike I'd call it a '73 that's titled as a '72. It's more common on the older bikes to be as example a '66 titled as a '67 which just meant it sat in the show room for a year or more. I have a Honda that was stamped made in '66 but titled as a 1969. Not anything worth arguing about IMHO. By the way that's a nice example of the model. Nice restoration as well.
you are right on the color and year, my motor bike is the same as yours.
Thank you for commenting on this video take care
That was my first bike. Same color and yes it was a 72. Enjoyed riding it with my friend's that had mini bikes and motorcycle's.

Thanks for the input

Thank you some people just don’t believe it take care
Like cars they make some in the last few months and then call them the new following year. I bought a 1993 CR250 in 1992?
Yes that is what I think happened! Thanks for commenting!
