Ah, the 1977 Yamaha FS1-DX in Kenny Roberts colours - what a beautiful machine! This little bike is a real classic, and it's hard not to be charmed by its retro styling and bold paint job.
Let's start with the colour - Kenny Roberts was a legendary motorcycle racer from the 1970s, and his iconic yellow and black colour scheme has become synonymous with Yamaha racing bikes of that era. The FS1-DX looks absolutely fantastic in these colours, with the bright yellow bodywork contrasting perfectly with the black seat, fork legs and wheels.
But this bike isn't just a pretty face - it's also a real hoot to ride. The FS1-DX is powered by a two-stroke, 50cc engine that produces a modest but zippy 5 horsepower. That might not sound like much, but with a kerb weight of just 80kg, this little bike is a real pocket rocket.
The handling is also excellent, thanks to the lightweight frame, telescopic front fork and twin rear shocks.
Inside the cockpit, you'll find a simple analogue speedometer, along with a couple of warning lights for oil and indicators. There's also a small storage compartment under the seat, which is handy for carrying a few essentials.
All in all, the 1977 Yamaha FS1-DX in Kenny Roberts colours is a wonderful little bike that perfectly captures the spirit of the era. It's not the fastest or most powerful machine out there, but it's a joy to ride and looks absolutely stunning. If you're a fan of classic motorcycles, this is definitely one to add to your collection!
