Note the part number carefully on this one. The 1972 RT2 listed here is model code RT2MX, and its manual is Yamaha LIT-11613-DT-RT, not the broader 08-01 volume.
Coverage is narrow: the 1972 model year, with the DT2 included. That tight scope has a practical benefit, since every specification in the tables belongs to one of two closely related machines rather than to a whole generation.
Inside is the factory material as issued: procedures in sequence, inspection criteria, tightening torques, clearances and service limits, wiring diagrams and fault-finding guidance.
Because two different manuals exist for RT-series bikes of this period, check both codes before buying. RT2MX on the frame and LIT-11613-DT-RT on the manual are what confirm you have matched them correctly.
