1983 Yamaha Midnight Special...Help!?

Question:
Could anyone help me discover where I can find the CC's for this bike? I have looked under the seat, on the motor, the frame, had the VIN traced through a yamaha dealer (who didn't have a clue..too old)
The only place I haven't looked is under the gas tank. I know the bike isn't any bigger than a 200 CC, and I know most of the Midnight Special's were 900 CC's. This was a limited edition bike, not an enduro type bike. So any help would be appreciated!

Answers:

Is a Hyosung 250 a good bike?

650 twin or 1100 four

Do any bikers agree?

They made quite a few Midnight Specials over the years. From the XS1100 version to the 650 twin. Could yours be their lil brother the 50 c.c. Midnight Special? It was a tiny cruiser mostly black and gold single cylinder. I think it may have run a similar motor to the Pw50 but not sure. Hope this helps and I'd search the web and check for old sales flyers or old issues of Cycle, Motorcyclist, etc.. Good Luck.

Suzuki 250 Quad?

The simple answer - contact Yamaha direct. They made the bike. They'll know which model it is. Your answer is just a phone call away.
