Description
Full color 7 3/4″ x 11″ ad for the 1968 Yamaha 180 Street Scrambler. This ad features a photo of a park with a Yamaha parked on a little hill. Below it are, probably the riders, a couple lying on the ground with the lady running her fingers through the guy’s hair. Just above the bike are two older teenage girl beating on an instrument and singing as the headline asks us to “Meet the Exciters”. The ad says to “Expect action with Yamaha’s virile new “twin,” the 180 Street Scrambler. This one was built to separate the men from the toys – at a price that won’t bruise the tenderest budget. The doll you’re dallying with may not understand talk such as 5-port power, constant mesh 5-speed gearbox and automatic oil injection. Then again she may. But after you’ve got her there on your 180 – who wants to talk”. 1968 Yamaha 180 Street Scrambler
