Yellow was used mostly in the '60s - '70s (1965 - 1979 anyway). Not sure about the 1980s.

Schwinn also liked red ...

Be aware that the Schwinn Lightweight Data Book site is currently about half-broken. The host, GeoCities, is closing down this summer and, for some reason, deleted about 34 of my 250+ accounts (w/o notice). This killed of sections of the site and many photo links. The site is being rewritten (1000s of pages) and moved to SchwinnBikeForum.com at some point.

Sorry for any inconvenience,
