Boy that takes me back. Ordered a Yamaha 250 Ascot Scrambler in 1965 or 66 which came to the dealer in a crate. No lights, no passenger pegs, megaphones and a usable rev band about 1,500 RPM wide (like 8,500 - 10,000 if I remember correctly). Not even close to street legal, but a hoot in the dirt.
While posting a photo of the bike to my Facebook account, I received replies and found out that 4 of my lady friends own bikes, none are currently running, but we made a pact that when this Covid-19 crap is over, we are starting a ladies bike gang. Should be lots of fun as we are all amateur photographers, love going to lunch somewhere new, and we all have a wild sense of adventure. Perhaps, if you are ever in the Ocala, Florida vicinity, you might like to ride with us? Just to let you know, all my bikes are kick start.
