1973 Yamaha TX750 Unregistered US Import Barn Find Classic Restoration Project Manufacturer: Yamaha Model: TX750 Year: 1973 Engine No: 341-013904 Frame No: 341--013904 Colour: Metallic Flake Gold Mileage: 15855 Capacity: 743cc Starting at: £1199.99 Stock No: 91966 This very rare and much sought-after Tax & MOT exempt 1973 Yamaha TX750 has recently been imported from North America where it has spent all its life. We have been unable to confirm this mileage reading. Please disregard it. The single most important purchase for a classic restoration project is the bike to restore, whether it's going to be a commercial venture or just a hobby interest it all starts here!. PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES........As you can see this bike is nearly complete missing just the rear indicators & mirrors. It has stood a while, so the battery is flat, tyres are perished, master cylinder is not working & tank is very mucky inside. Sadly, whatever can go rusty has done so to some extent. BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS.........The wheels look straight, front has a nice clean alloy rim, but rear is a bit anodised. Brake plate, disc & caliper look good. Forks & yokes look straight with good chrome & clean alloy. Mudguards are both solid but pitted. Taillight assy is good as are the headlight & hangers. Instruments look ok but tacho face is slight mis-shapen. Paintwork is solid, fuel tank is very mucky/rusty inside and has been leaking from the rear corners. Seat is in good condition throughout & hides a rodent nest in the tool tray. Chain guard is tidy. The engine turns over nicely off the kick starter – sounds/feels ok but the r/h cylinder is very low on compression - We have had it firing on the l/h cylinder with easystart spray but not running.
