There Were Many Types You Could Ride In The Yamaha Gold Gup, There Were Home-made Machines, Standard Stores Machines Such As Yamaha's, Stingrays, Kawasaki's etc. And Then You Had The Works/Prototype Stuff Such As DG, Dan Gurney Monoshock's, Yamaha Works (Scot Breithaupt Rode One) And Kawasaki Works.
Stu Thompson I'm Sure Rode One Of The Yamaha Motobikes But It Wasnt A Works, Just A Standard Store Machine :daumenhoch:

Anyone built somethin' of this era ??

reiley1 built a fab DG Racer from that era, it looked gorgeous! i loved it as DG is my top dream bike! and the Dan Gurney Monoshock's are as rare as hens teeth and is also another of my Dream BMX collection!
