    Although it belonged to my friend, I cut my teeth on this bike, in 1973. I was 17, the age you got a driver's license. It was pretty quick ! These and other Yamahas were the ones that spun rings around the Hondas in those days. I will be 67 in October, and my current bike is an Indian-made Yamaha FZ25. That LS2 was a great motorcycle !

    I worked with a guy who had one of those bikes in the mid-70's. I'd never seen another one, so I thought it was probably the only one ever made, until now. Glad to see there are more of those neat little bikes around.

    Incredible Memories!
    We had this reliable impact wrench / hammer combo to remove the screws from the engine covers.
    You can see the stress on the screws where somebody did NOT have an impact driver to remove them,
    and ALMOST stripped them out (like we did on other engines....kids...ya know...)
    EXCELLENT JOB!
    I can see my Grandfather's gas pump where we paid 27 cents PER GALLON (along with the lead...)
    Great times. Just great times.
    THANKS FOR THINKING!

    When that bike was new, a cycle magazine had, "Crossing the U.S. on a twin jet 100". I fell in love with that bike. Bought a Yamaha R 5, twin 350 because it looked like a big twin jet 100. Beauty, Slippers!

    You go Slippers! I thought I was so cool in the 70s on my Honda Z50! Dad had the tire rack on the front bumper of our truck. We would take my bike camping and I loved the fold down handlebars! I was 10 riding all over the Mojave desert. Those were the days!😊

    In '72 I dreamed about getting an LS2 and saved all my money. Then '73 came along and although I had enough money they were no longer available and I couldn't find one used. Not a big seller. I settled for a Honda CB125. Then in '74 I moved on to an RD350. However, in '76 I was able to grab a '74 RD125 as a 2nd bike. Not an LS2, but in many respects it's direct descendant and a whole lot better with more power, better handling and a disk front brake. Those were simpler days. Kudos on the nice acquisition!

    Wow Kerwin, I owned two of these Yamaha Twins.
    I paid $325.00 for the LS2 100cc, (Brand New)
    And I owned a Red and White 125cc, Paid $400
    I rode the LS2 100 about 100,000 miles and sold it for $350 4 years later!
    After your great restore, and video,
    I wished I would have kept them.
    Some memory's last forever!

    That brings back memories. This was my first bike. Had no idea they made so few of them. Should have held on to mine. Had huge starter issues. If electruc ignition didn't work, I tried kick starting it. If that didn't work we push started it. Rode this bike all over the place for years.

    Nice 🚲 bike Slippers,those are very rare,I never heard of a Yamaha 100-twin,until I saw this episode and got edumacationed on it.
    Oh...nice butt kicking on the neighbor too,he sounds like he wants seconds Slippers.HAHAHA!!!!!!.
    Ed,I wouldn't call Slippers Chuck Norris,but he did kick your butt!!.
    I still have my dads 1972 Suzuki GT-750 J(these were know as the"water buffolo's because these were the first liquid cooled bikes ever made),its a 3-cylinder 2-cycle street bike with about 90 hp..It has about 3,400 original miles on it and runs well.

    Just some advice,(personal preference). Powder coating is nice if you have to cover a lot of sins . Chrome wheels are a must in any restoration. You can find them reasonably cheap . Everyone powder coated in. The late 90s . Plus parts are basically done once you powder coat them . Love the job you did. Get them chrome or stainless rims my friend !!!

That bike could smoke all the 160 Honda’s,,,, your videos brought back a lot of fun rides I had on my first bike. Thanks.

      I had the later revised model CS3E 200cc way into the late 70s. Pretty old by then. I gave it away in 1979. That was the last 2-stroke bike I
      had. Maybe the transmission glitch was fixed in that model, as mine worked well. One of my friends had a 1977 RD200 which I used to ride. It was very zippy.

    @RussellBooth1977 6 лет назад

    You've done a very good job on doing that bike up !!!!
    As I was growing up,I was classically good at wrecking stuff which is like that but since doing a few tech courses in automotive, electrical, welding,etc & an apprenticeship as an electrical fitter/mechanic,I'm a lot better at fixing that stuff up now.
    So,now I'm not for that McGuiness whose from Vermont, when I was that bad they thought that I needed them !!!!
    It looks like I may get my car registered next week since it was sitting out the front of the house unregistered for over a year.
    I just had to go through different things with it like I replaced a rear axle CV joint which had heaps of lash in it,replaced one of the rear brake rotors,handbrake shoes & the rear adjustment nut on one of the wheels as the old one fell apart & scored the inside of the rotor.
    Other things such as the rear manual transmission mount,right hand side front ball joint (old one leaked grease),etc needed to be replaced to get a registration blue slip done.
    Then the cars engine developed a case of hard starting when warm,the fuel system doesn't hold pressure after being primed & I replaced the in tank fuel pressure regulator & fuel pump in 2016.
    The fuel pressure regulator diaphragm is ruptured as the vacuum port has fuel coming out of it,while it supplies 55 PSI of pressure at idle speed it may not supply enough pressure under load.
    So I have ordered a new regulator to fit before the inspection because I don't want to get caught out with a fully ruptured diaphragm & no fuel pressure.
    As far as diagnosing the bikes engine I've been using pressure gauges to check things such as engine compression, it really needs new lifters & a camshaft so I tested the oil pressure to make sure that the engines bearings are all good which they are.
    So,next month comes the new lifters & replacement camshaft which I already have.
