Ok, time for me to ask probably a dumb question. What year did the DT250's go from Piston port to reed valve induction? I have what I believe is a 73, but with Reeds. I was thinking the reeds didn't start till 74? Thanks guys, I love this site

"72 DT2 & RT2 & AT2 & CT2 & RD250/350 & so it goes on. "72 for everything Yamaha we could buy. Maybe a year earlier for works experimental stuff. Cheers.
