Did it fall? A yamaha dealer might be able to find you one.

As long as that someone isn't blonde with nice curves and beautiful blue eyes, does it really matter?


And, for the hell of it, let's pretend that someone is a female, too. Bikes have nice curves and can have blue headlights.

kickstart lever for a 67 yamaha is probably NLA.

id look into getting the lever welded, barring that im sure that you could find another lever off a different bike that might fit
