Yamaha just let out the samples of
what is to come in the new line of offroad and competition machines for
1978, The most changed m achine of
the crop is the YZ80E motocross ra cer.
T he mini bike now comes with a
monoshock and leading axle forks. A .
five-speed transmission gets the little
barnstormer go ing. For the older
racers, the YZ250E has been reworked
for next year. For Enduro types . th e
IT's come back better next yea r, and
there is a refined XT500E thumper for
the over-the-hill gang.
