Default yamaha ysr 50

anyone kno if they still make these? and how much. i couldnt find it on the yamaha site. these small bikes might be too little. but they look really for fun a starter bike! jus go riding around at night or soemthing hehe.

if anyone knows a place to buy used ones or something , please let me know , thanks. the ones on ebay cost so much. u can almost get a new ninja 250

i just did some searching and im guessing they dont make them anymore or something, the ones for sale are all very old and seems a bit overpriced. can someone explain it to me please, thanks

they only made YSRs from 87-92. If you're looking for a good condition one, expect to pay anywhere from $1200(if you're lucky) to $2000+. They're a collectors item now. I sold mine with a blown motor for $1300. I'm looking to spend $1500 for my next one.

Honda just came out with a NSR50 but its not street legal and its $3000

It looked nice but needed some work. The lights didnt work, no ignition or keys, some wires were all jumbled up, motor blew a couple of weeks after I got it, suspension needed to be upgraded(didnt do since i was selling it)
