DESCRIPTION

The Yamaha FS1-E is a 1970s icon. Introduced in the early 70s, it became an instant success, giving sixteen year olds their first taste of motorcycle performance and freedom, and totally overshadowing the other mopeds available at that time. Many riders had their FS1-E for only one year only before progressing to larger machines. Today, nostalgia for the youthful exuberance engendered by the ‘Fizzie’ has resulted in many ex-owners wanting to recreate their pride and joy.

THE AUTHOR

Well-known in Yamaha FS1-E enthusiasts circles, the author has restored several of these classic mopeds and knows all the wrinkles that make the job easier. He writes in an easy to understand manner that can be followed by even those totally new to the restoration process.
