Yep looks like a Yammie enduro, maybe a 250.

Yeah....that looks like the bike I rented back in '71 in San Diego when I went there to see my brother graduate from Navy boot camp.  That was 3 of the best days of my life (well it seemed like it at the time) LOL.

Sort of the same deal as this CB750 used for the True Value ad a couple years ago. They took off the HONDA insignia from the tank and engine cover. Upon close examination of this poster I see there is actually no key in the ignition.

What year do you think that bike is John, I say a 1972 ?  Runs so good doesn't even need a key HA HA . Photoshop is a wonderful thing, good catch  ;)
