Seller description

Here for sale is a rare  1968 Yamaha Bonanza 180 the speedometer shows only 33 miles.    It is from an estate sale in Oregon of a collector, unfortunately much of its life it sat in a storage room in California and  Oregon where the coastal climate can be moist.  Some of the chrome parts have surface rust pitting , also the tank must be cleaned out the old gasoline was left in the tank til it evaporated (there is a picture of the inside ). The original oil is clean ,I put a little on the engine casing in one of the photos. The compression is  good, It's all original on the motorcycle, I didn't do anything but cleaned something it was very dusty, The seat is like new, you can see it also at the air filter box is still like new, or shocks, etc.
There are the original tires hardly any traces of use but after 50 years not suitable for driving and one does not hold the air well , of all things, carburetors must be cleaned etc. but it is a great base for a restoration of a rare motorcycle a two-stroke and one of the first with electric start. Its a matching numbers bike .
