Description

The Yamaha Excel is a very cute looking scooter that you just don’t see anymore. When it was released in 1986 it won the Japanese Good Design Award. I feel that the speedo itself could have won.

Cute though it may be, it is powered by the same peppy 2-stroke engine as the Jog. In fact, the Excel was made as a kind of luxury version of the Jog. The Jog is all sportiness. The Excel has an anti-vibration mount for the engine and a bottom link for the front suspension. Plush.

In sand and white with a sand seat, black rack and front basket and white basket, this Excel is in tidy condition. Being nearly 40 years old there are some age related marks but overall it is very nice. It would make a wonderful retro-style (actually properly vintage) runaround. Inexpensive to buy, cheap to run and in a couple of years it becomes MOT-and tax-exempt. Cool.

These photos were taken by our colleagues in Japan. (I’ve also added a couple of pictures from the original Japanese advertising campaign featuring WGP champion Tadahiko Taira.) More pictures and a video will be taken when it arrives. You can reserve this bike with a 30% (£500) deposit. The listed price is for the bike with all duty paid. UK registration can be arranged for £165. Delivery anywhere.

When the bike arrives we will film a walkaround video and take photos and send them to you, if you are not happy with the bike for any reason, we will refund your deposit in full at this stage.
