Great bike!, thanks for sharing
Reminds me of my friend Mike Peters 78 RM80C

He would cut the lock on the middle school property ,and ride it around the ash covered running oval
WFO- it was a huge laugh!

Thanks for the comments. The B, C and N were great bikes. The B sounded incredible, like a buzz saw, and was like lightning for its time. I have a small Youtube video of the B before i restored it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfNTFSHN4Is
Rob, i had the Yamaha YZ80E and F, which i raced against the C's and N's. I also spent most of my childhood on these bikes in the bush behind my house. Used to run out of petrol and push the bike home.. mum would have dinner on the table and just say "did you have fun out there"... great times...
