Hi Paul and Cap.  Just because it's R&W,  not sure how you can tel it's a YZ.  How can you tell anything from those crap pics.  If you have bionic eyes,  then you can compare with my Pre-85's  www.vmx.com.au,  better still,  just ask the guy  8)

Could be a tt/xt600 frame. Would make sense as they have the oil in the frame. Tank looks like a DT175/200
Looks nasty anyway.

It's a garden variety XT600 in very average condition. Check out www.bikepics.com and compare.

yeah, I thought it would be a xt600, but it's got a xt500 motor shoehorned into it.
