I had a GT 125, just listening brought back fond memories. The smell and sound and still remember the number plate.
almost can smell that lovely oily smoke💨
I remember riding the DT`s , they are a special and most satisfying bike to ride . Wish i had another right now :) . Thanks for sharing RoyalJordanian.
Oh the memories of the Yamaha 2 stroke. Never owned the DT but was lucky enough to own a '74 125 YZ and then the '75 125 YZ monoshock. Wish I still had them.
This 70`s DT means a lot too me too i love them! how i wish i could ride one again! They are so much fun to ride!
Miss that 2 stroke smoke ! A friend had a DT 400 .I was riding and RD 400 and another friend had a KH 400 Which I acquired later before I bought a new RD 350 .Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
best bike channel on UA-cam. much love 😘
I have a 1996 Yamaha DT-200, a street legal two stroke, one of the most fun bikes I've ever rode!
That bike is glorious, man. And (obviously because it's part of RJs orchestra) sounds amazing!
(No excuse for 1:35 though... naughty boy! :p)
GwresYnKernow haha its like a child ;)... except its much older than most viewers...
Great video. There is something about the simplicity and mechanical purity of some of the older bikes. I love the new and sophisticated ultra powerful bikes as well, but oh the memories of riding the older bikes!
#notificationsquad this bike is sex!
RJ definitely also needs a old 2 stroke trails bike like a Yamaha TY... They're just so classic, exotic and fun to ride :D
best bike channel on UA-cam. much love 😘
Oh man that sounds delightful
Hi Royal, thank You For this video, Yamaha DT 360 is very good to playing on the road kkkk, . Im Portuguese, i Live in London, and i apreciate you channel, Many Thanks...
There is just something about 2 strokes that get's a petrolheads attention everytime.
I have to agree with you RJ. When I ride my 74 DT360, 5 minutes on that bike is worth all the bikes in the world!
Much love for this bike
Cant say i've heard a better sounding DT
no kidding....
Looks and sounds great, Just brought my first bike on saturday :)
overtaking on a crossing RJ?? that bike has turned you into a hooligan :)
Nice to see one of your old bikes again :)
Saw an Aprilia RS125 for sale today and sorta want to buy it after seeing this.
Awesome video thanks RJ
Nice 'Old School' bike for Sundays.
I had a 1970 DT175. Used it to ride enduros and trials as well as around town. No one does that anymore.
rj I agree ive been on this bike years ago!!!
Did my CBT today, I was rewarded with an RJ video 🙌🏼
Doctorshorts welcome!
Used to own DT200WR during my youth days
vintage love
That is a lovely looking bike RJ, gotta love a 2T :-)
All Yamaha DTs are the best Enduro bikes ever made. it is super sad that Yamaha discontinued them.
the best thing about this video is:
Kew Bridge road works are now finished! I thought it would take forever hahahahahahahaha
Learnt to ride on a DT showing my age and yours is same age as me 😀
Good to hear some 2 stroke action. I kinda wish 500cc 2-strokes were still made without being dirtbikes.
2 stroke life.....cheaaah
Legend Reborn...Yamaha motorcycles has different feel, look & sound than any other brands which is unique, i had yamaha RX100 it lived 15 years from brand new i did daily commute i did many services now that main engine itself is wore down & parts are nowhere to be seen or sold or sold as rare at high amount..
Cheah !
Lol CHEAH!
Gus Ali wah gus ali😂
+American Spirit the RX100 and RX115 are very iconic bikes here in Colombia those are everywhere.
Maybe you can buy online all the parts you need.
2 stroke is love
I wish manufacturers still make bike's similar to these, Yes the good old scrambler, super light, low seat, knobby tires, super fun on the street and to try a trail. but alas the emissions regulations killed all this. now something close we have the Ducati scrambler or maybe the Sixty2.
Brummmm!!
best comment
great bike
At the moment im building a yamaha xt500 1979, looks Lot like this one!
I understand what you said about 5 min. riding this. I get my fix from a 1977 Suzuki TS185 & 1979 Yamaha RD400F Daytona. If its not smoking its broken.
I love my Yamaha XT 500! :)
Ur DT is gorgeous, too! ;)
GrueneVanilleWaffel don't you have problems with starting the bike?
Not at all. One kick only! ;)
GrueneVanilleWaffel you must be very lucky, my dad used to have one but it was very difficult to kick... like break your leg if you do it wrong.
I restored my XT all by myself and know it better than myself.
Also you need the right technique! ;)
Yea, the XT can kick back if ure unlucky, but if you do it right and kick all the way to the bottom it can't kick back^^
That is the way to do it, my SR 500 is the same. But this is only valid if the stopper plate for the kickstarter is not broken, which unfortunately is often the case.
sound😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
2 stroke FTW !
'I have to get it out and ride her' - RJ 2017
Now Sir, this video explains the Feeling why I ride bikes! Much appreciated!
I learn so much watching you ride
cool man.... smokeee that thing....
in india we have the yamaha rd350 in which people go crazy about it.
sound good
You gotta love the "brap" "brap" sound it makes 😍
Ugh it sounds so fucking good
Nice bike, shocking riding. One day I worry you'll get knocked off my friend. Overtaking a car in a turn right lane as the car approaches that same lane (2:44) and over 40 mph in a 20 mph zone (1:47) to name but two no no's. Slap on the wrists RJ x
very nice. i want pay sr400, i want no this bike good or no
I love the put-put-put that she makes, a very lovely bike she is
That sounds exactly like Yamaha RX100 .... Really Nice... Can get one of these for under $2000 bucks here ...
please RJ could you do a video on what you think is the best 125 4stroke?
I have a 2 stroke motorcycle from 1974 too... And I agree with you, only a 5min ride can change everything :)
Absoulutly love the passion you have for the 360😍
she is so beautiful and sounds really good
very long time no see
Use to ride the mountains of western Canada with my dad, his 1976 DT 250 was amazing to hear, smell and ride behind. Its a little worn out now, but made it to the alpine 3years ago. My son has a 75:dt 250 and we ride together in the mountains a few times each year. Still have dads bike, but it's been ridden very hard.
Miss you dad!
loudest bike you have! xD
It's your special bike. There is always one.
I have quite a rare Meteor Minor de luxe from 1959, but my favorite is a 1994 Royal Enfield military bullet from India. Other bikes have always been fun, some better than others, but that hand built bullet named 'Tornado' is a permanent part of me now.
sounds like shes running a little bit thick on gas ^^ but could also be caused by my ears ;P
but beautiful bike bro :)
its just incredible how Happy it makes me just seeing you enjoy your bikes. thanks rj for yet another great video. p.s for me even the nuda doesn't sound as good as this.
If you had to choose one bike out of all that are out there which one would it be? I guess the Nuda? :D
first.
joking....kiss ma ass.
In Bulgaria we have MZ 175 / 250
I feel ya, baby! I had a Yamaha 60 red JT-1. There's something about revisiting the pleasures of our youth decades later that's like reconnecting viscerally with those great feelings; the joy, pleasure, happiness. For a friend of mine, it's surfing. For me it's motorcycles. Especially the JT-1 and the Harley Sprint (Aermacchi) 250. I actually get the same nostalgia when I test rode a Ducati Scrambler. The size, look, sound, smell. AHHHHHHH!
If you love old bikes you should try to come to the Barbers Vintage bike show here in the states in Oct. Its like going to motorcycle heaven. Only place I know I can go and get 3 days of my childhood back.
What is the weight of this motorcycle? Lovely Bike!!
I love two strokes, out of the 3 bikes in my garage 2 are two bangers. A Yamaha RS100 and a Suzuki GP125. The 4 stroke is my wife's Honda Cub....
....Any chance you can give me the specs of the tires?. I want to copy those on my RS...
thanks for sharing this with us Royal Jordanian. I'd take a vintage motorcycle over anything made today if given a choice, nothing beats it in my opinion. :)
Brought back many happy memories - although my first bike was a Yamaha Twin pot 125 - back in 1977 - bought it for $75.00AUD - lasted till 1982 - then sounded like a diesel. Thanks RJ
nice bike that, does sound like there could be an air leak on the way it runs, then again that could be completely normal as ive not owned this particular bike :)
Sounds fine to me. Sounds like an old two stroke. What did you hear that makes you think there could be a air leak?
Bob you should hear this bikes. Rxz, kawasaki krr and x1r. All of them is 2 stroke. You should their sounds it's crazy!
I know the Feeling, I had to transport My Grandfathers 1978 Yamaha RS100 6 Miles To His New House A Few weeks ago, what a sensation it was, the Nods Of all people on the road riding such an old bike, just bumbling along at 30-40mph it felt amazing, like you he also restored the bike from a rusty frame to a complete 'Ridden Not Hidden' Show bike, it was an awe inspiring experience transporting it the distance, when I arrived I didnt want to get off the bike, in the 15-30 minutes I had gone from not really caring about it to completely falling in love, the feel, the smell it was all amazing, and because of this I now own the bike, I had bought it off him and plan to look after the bike until I can Legally ride a bike
Thanks RJ
I used to have one of those!
i dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know a tool to get back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Ryan Esteban Instablaster =)
@Terrance Kabir i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Terrance Kabir it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account !
@Ryan Esteban you are welcome =)
policeofficers in your country cant take your papiers from moto bcs you dont have mirrors on bike ??
BTW greatings from Slovakia ! (and nice bike, I just bought similar, old czechoslovakian Jawa 350)
Dear RJ i have only one question on you. Have you ever ride Jawa or CZ bike? I know that they are popular in GB. I´m from Czech Republic where we produced these bikes since 1930´s. Thanks for you respond.
I had a dt125lc mk1. 1982 bike, looked more modern than this but still had the oh so effective drum brakes. Hahaa
Many of us older guys (started on road 1964) began on small bikes. My first was a Honda 90cc Sport. They have some magic because you have to use every ounce of power and every minuscule skill to get around. Lovely bike man! I can understand your love of her! Thanks for sharing.
Soooo hypnotic... Can listen to this all day.
Here in India, we still have hordes of RX 100s and RX 135, and occasionally the RD 350 (rajdoot for the indian market), whose riders maintain them in mint condition. Always a thrill to see and hear one zip by. Long live true to the soul vintage 2 strokes.
Hello everyone ! Does anyone own a YAMAHA MT/FZ 07 ? Should I buy one ? Tell me things about this bike if you know please... Thanks ! Good video RJ !
Old but gold... RJ, more of this... it would be nice to hear different engines on your channel, with all do respect to other bikes...
It makes me miss my old Yamaha RX-Special😤😤😤....We call it Motor Maling in Indonesia or Bike for the Thief....cause it so freakin fast 😂😂😂
My last bike was a kawa kh125 in 1980. That vid brought the smell the foot peg vibs the feeling of giddiness of starting her up right back to me.... But I sold it for an engagement ring 2years later no bike no wife
love is blind
Wish I still had mi kh 125..... Sob
Thank you Sir.Thank you very much to made such a beautiful classic old memory Yamaha DT 360 review for us.Finally you gave a re-deep breath to us.
Thank you again
In india 90's where market capture by Yamaha rx100 bike also rd350. Without doubt not single bike can't beat the pick up of this two stroke engine. Still so many youngter after this bike and willing to pay much more. Ur luck to got this sister of rd350. eargasom after hearing the stroke
i realy wish if you could ride a yamaha RX100 nd make a vedio about it RJ.. here in india its the most welcomed bike among young riders 🙂 and i booked my first bike CBR 150R,one more month to go.cuz of the new weird law.. you have to keep your head lamps on all two wheels to prevent accidents..pretty dump i thing.. hope you will consider about the RX 🤗
Absolutely beautiful :)
Old bikes are so cool. I ride a 1976 Yamaha 650 XS, the sound it makes is just so satisfying. And the overall feel and feedback of the bike is amazing; it feels alive. I can provide a nice picture if needed haha!
popular thing to do was swap the head with one of the MX360, which raises the compression, get rid of the balancers ans chain inside, unhook and block off the oil pump/cable to it and mix the gas, they were known for killing the engines. most importantly don't hit a car on it, especially not at 40MPH+ it hurts :|
I don't think I've ever clicked on an RJ video faster than this one; just...these 70's Japanese 2-Stroke Enduros, there's just something about them that I can't get enough of.
The DT always reminds me of my Dads 1980 Yamaha XT500 but both are glorious and gorgeous bikes
Nice Video btw RJ !
I thought 2 strokes dont like engine braking? Just would like to know if it's true. Cheers
Adam Vulture This particular bike has an oil pump so it doesn't harm it. If you need to mix the oil to the gas, then you shouldn't use engine braking.
The oil still mixes with gasoline in the carburetor and the pump is controlled by the throttle cable. So less throttle -> less oil
Very nice! If I were to pick a nostalgic bike from my early days it would be a gpz 305 from about 10 years later. I'm a 2 smoker at heart so long as it has a track and skis, but I have a couple early 2 smoke bikes I wouldn't mind either.
Hey RJ! maybe a question for a Q&A video.
How do you store your bikes?
you ride most often enough so that you don't have to worry about it, but how do you suggest storing a bike like this?
cheers from The Netherlands!
I started age 10 with a Raleigh Wisp 50cc two stroke moped that cost me £3.50. It was more like a heavy bike with thick wheels. My dad taught me how to fix machinery at a very early age and i set about looking for power. I skimmed the head with wet and dry and a glass jam jar, i took a couple of thou of the barrel top to also raise compression then i set about making an expansion chamber. Other lads with mopeds used to laugh but It was the fastest twist and go in the area way faster than up to the minute brand new two gear mopeds and boy did they have red faces when this old granny mobile thrashed them. I miss the fun i had on that machine. I love your little DT and you have done a good job on the restoration. Take care and as always "Ride Safe".
This bike is what i owned years ago and it is the best bike i ever owned on and off road! The classic 2 stroke DT is my love! I agree what an amazing bike i`d love too own one again.
