not mine but I wish it was!! found on the internet, I love it the forks look familiar to me. is it a mish-mash or a factory stocker? looks at stuey I know it says yamaha on the frame but anyone could bosh a sticker on, and google draws a blank. thanks in advance you know, I have some handlebars like that already and an elina layback......

That certainly is a bit of a mish mash to be honest! Judging by the bash guard thingumy beneath the BB shell, I'm going for it actually being a very early Monte trials bike thats kinda morphed itself into a BMX I used to have a Monarch BMX back in '79 that had motorcycle style forks similar to those! Whatever it might be...it looks pretty cool as it is

id say maybe a cheapo yank one. they had alot of good looking bikes coming outa jc whitney and shops like those. that seemed to incorperate alot of highend looking bits. but that didnt work..... think the yamaha sticker is a bit wishfull thinking tho don't seem to be any on BMXMUSEUM and the ones that are there , are of an older frame type to this and have susp forks....... bars don't look much cop tho either..... bmxmuseum.com/bikes/Y/

The bars are almost definately RENTHAL but with the bolt on cross bar missing!

thanks for info guys all the yamaha ones I found on google had the long seat like a chopper and more of a schwinn cruiser stylee frame. proper moto-bicycle. now I need to a pair of those forks in my life I have a set of monkeybike 8" riser's that look pretty close to those renthall's and a layback elina UL and a mongoose cali frame....

with a bash guard like that id say a haro Can I just say ( and sorry to contradict ) it certainly 100million percent that it isnt a Haro! Its far too old....Haro first made a Bashguard bike in 1989....this bike is either late 70s or early 80s!

In fact I can quite confidently tell you that it is in fact an early Monty B-219 trials bike
