The 1980 Yamaha GT80 Enduro is a remarkable survivor, having reportedly remained with its original owner for over four decades before being inherited and acquired by the current owner. This low‑mileage example shows only 124 miles and has been carefully recommissioned to ensure reliable operation. The work included cleaning the carburetor and fuel tank, replacing the spark plug, and flushing the oil injection tank — all essential maintenance for a bike that has been in storage.
Finished in classic red and white Yamaha livery, the GT80 Enduro is a nostalgic reminder of the golden era of small‑bore enduros. Power comes from a 72cc two‑stroke single paired with a four‑speed manual transmission. The two‑stroke engine produces a distinctive powerband, making it an exciting ride on trails and back roads. The kick starter brings the engine to life with a satisfying response, and the Autolube oil injection system ensures proper lubrication without the need for pre‑mixing fuel.
The high‑mount expansion‑chamber exhaust system enhances performance and ground clearance while giving the bike a distinctive sound. The chrome cross‑braced handlebar provides a confident riding stance, and the black vinyl seat offers comfort for extended rides. The high‑mounted fenders provide excellent mud and debris clearance, making this bike well‑suited for off‑road use.
Street lighting — including headlight, taillight, and turn signals — makes the GT80 versatile for on‑road use where permitted. The side stand provides convenient parking, and the compact, lightweight design makes it easy to handle.
This 1980 Yamaha GT80 Enduro is offered with a bill of sale and is a fantastic opportunity to own a low‑mileage vintage enduro that has been preserved with care.
