This 1988 Yamaha YSR50 was refurbished under previous ownership and was acquired by the selling dealer in 2024. Finished in black with yellow and white graphics, the bike is powered by a 49cc two-stroke single paired with a five-speed transmission. Equipment includes Autolube oil injection, a kick starter, an upswept DG Performance exhaust, full suspension, a front disc brake, 12″ wheels, street lighting, clip-on handlebars, and a black vinyl rider seat. Work in 2024 included changing the oil and replacing the spark plug and battery. This YSR50 is offered at no reserve by the selling dealer in New York with an antique-branded Pennsylvania title.
The fully-faired bodywork was modeled after Yamaha’s YZR500 racer and was refinished during the aforementioned refurbishment in black with yellow and white graphics. Details include street lighting, dual mirrors, a yellow-tinted windscreen, a 2.1-gallon fuel tank, a two-piece rider seat, and a side stand.
White-finished 12″ white finished wheels wear Shinko tires with 2017 date codes. Suspension consists of a conventional telescopic fork as well as a monoshock mounted to the box-section swingarm. Braking is handled by a front disc and rear drum.
Clip-on handlebars are mounted above the top triple clamp and carry high beam, horn, and turn signal switches on the left and a run/off switch on the right. Instrumentation consists of a 50-mph speedometer with an overlay decal displaying hash marks up to 80 mph, inset indicator lights, and a five-digit odometer showing 3,700 miles.
The air-cooled 49cc two-stroke single is equipped with Autolube oil injection, a kick starter, and a DG Performance exhaust system. Service in preparation for the sale consisted of changing the oil and replacing the spark plug and battery.
Power is sent to the rear wheel through a five-speed transmission and a drive chain with a black guard.
The current Pennsylvania title carries an “Antique” brand.
