They don't make bikes like the old Yamaha XT500. Mine got stolen in the early 90's. I'm still looking for it.

Did the guy with the R65 qualify for a recall on his Snowflakes?

R65s had a 18" front wheel, as opposed to the Type 247 19" that was recalled.Garnet wrote:Did the guy with the R65 qualify for a recall on his Snowflakes?
The 18" was not recalled.
edit: oh, wait, that was a joke!

I have a '79 XT and a '79 SR500. Really strong reliable motorcycles. I built a TT500 street legal dualsport sidecar years ago
that was really capable off road as well as hiway, lots of fun.
