A number of machines can claim to have become cultural icons with the Yamaha FS1E or "Fizzy" being one such. The sight and sound of one of these little two strokes will instantly conjure long forgotten memories for riders of the generation that took their first steps on a motorcycle during the late seventies and early eighties to a post punk soundtrack. The FS1E may not have been the fastest sports moped available, but it proved to be one of the most resilient withstanding the abuse of its teenaged owners with remarkable fortitude and has come to be regarded as the eponymous "sixteener special". Today, the FS1E is highly sought after by those seeking to revive those memories.
This very tidy 1977 example, finished in the yellow "Kenny Roberts" livery is described by the vendor as being in very good condition throughout having been the subject of a "90% restoration" that included, in addition to the paintwork, a new wiring loom. It is offered with a Swansea V5C and an MOT certificate valid until the 29th April 2015.
