Cool

The 1967 Yamaha YL2C that I just shifted (why do the British say shifted when it's sold?) that was a rotary valve two stroke, 100cc.The little pump was pretty cool and metered oil separately from the fuel flow. Because it is an engine driven pump I'd suspect that the oil consumption can easily be lower vs a premix.
Anyway once I got he bike running well it ran really well. While only a 4 speed once the rpm were up and hitting the power band the bike was a screamer, easily to 55 mph in 3rd.
The best thing about the bike was that it turned up to be GREAT trade bait and netted me a very nice 1969 CB350, so I like(d) it too,but like the CB WAY better!
