Post by: Tony T on April 21, 2012, 08:16:36 pm
Still searching for this brochure.
The cover looks like this:

It has pics of the entire 1979 range as well as specs.

If you can help, let me know and name your price.  ;)

No problem, young Davey.  ;D
FWIW here's what the inside looks like.

I remember getting my original one from the local Yamaha dealer when I was doing work experience there.
But when my shed burnt down, I lost it (and a lot of other stuff.)  :(

I'm also willing to pay a finder's fee if anyone can lead me to a good one.

my brother and i scored a box full of old brochures from our local Yammie shop way back when.
i'm pretty sure we had the same brochure but the 77 version.
a house fire claimed it many years ago  :(

Amazing that fire took out your copy as well!  :-\
Pity about that. I still owe you a favour, Vandy........  8)
Ah well, I've been after this one for some time so I figured it was time to post again.

Thanks Hoony. Yeah, I've got a permanent search going for it, but have yet to turn up anything.
I think because there's unlikely to be one in the U.S. (different colour YZ's) it narrow my search area a bit.
The search continues........  ;D
