The Yamaha FS1-E is a 1970s icon. Introduced in the early 70s, it became an instant success, giving sixteen year olds their first taste of motorcycle performance and freedom, and totally overshadowing the other mopeds available at that time.
The Yamaha FS1-E is a 1970s icon. Introduced in the early 70s, it became an instant success, giving sixteen year olds their first taste of motorcycle performance and freedom, and totally overshadowing the other mopeds available at that time._x000B_Many riders had their FS1-E for only one year only before progressing to larger machines. _x000B_Today, nostalgia for the youthful exuberance engendered by the 'Fizzie' has resulted in many ex-owners wanting to recreate their pride and joy._x000B_Most FS1E _x0019_s have not endured the test of time well, and very few good original examples exist. There are plenty of restorable machines around and this book guides the do-it-yourself restorer through the minefield of initially finding a machine to restore and the pitfalls of a first restoration. _x000B_The bikes featured in the photos are a seriously neglected 1974 machine, a part restored 1976 model - of dubious type, and a 1975 DX model which arrived as a pile of bits. _x000B_

Well-known in Yamaha FS1-E enthusiasts circles, the author has resored several of these classic mopeds and knows all the wrinkles that make the job easier. He writes in an easy to understand manner that can be followed by even those totally new to the restoration process._x000B_
