What we know today to be dual sports used to be called enduro bikes on account of their go-anywhere, do-anything versatility. Yamaha’s CT1 is precisely such a motorcycle, designed to fill the gap between the AT1 and DT1.
Built with a 171cc two-stroke, single-cylinder engine, a raised rear fender, some high-mounted exhaust, and a generous amount of ground clearance, it offered customers the perfect compromise between on-road comfort and off-road chops. Thanks to its 14hp and Autolube oil injection system, it proved very approachable amongst riders of all ages and skill levels.
