Nice Daytona Special. Wish I had pics of my RD250, 350. If I had a scanner I could post my Roberts Replica RZ. Alas.

No, but almost as good.  Some farmer in down state Illinois owned it with only 7K on the clock.  I put 10K on it myself the past 2 years.  It's mechanically stock, with the exception of different Yamaha wheels (changed rear from 16" to 17" YZF wheel).  Traxxion suspension and some other minor changes.

I bought this as a basket-case in '92.  Still ride it a bit.

My first 4 bikes were Yamahas. Clap Great bikes!

1.) '76 YZ80 (this is the bike I learned to ride on: "What's a 'clutch'? ... "Breeeeeeeeeendeengdeeng....OUCH!")
2.) '79 YZ80 (my next bike...oooh Monoshock baby! ...my neighbors heard this every day after school: "Bwaaah bwaaaahh bwaaaaaa bwaaaaaaaaaaaa!")
3.) '80 IT125 (indestructable, fun, easy, blue and white. Hollister Hills or Clear Creek? "Asbestos Boogers!")
4.) '83 QT50 Yamahopper (Hey, it did great donuts and spent almost as much time in the air as it did on the ground.)

I've got some pics but I'd need to dig 'em out of the closet and do the  scanner thang.

This is currently my only Yamaha - a crusty Triple: '79 XS750F

I just saw one of the mid-80's 3-cyl 750 road bikes for sale in a yard the other day but didn't have time to stop to look at it and haven't seen it again.
 
Edit - yup, that's what it was - an XS750.

I recall seeing that 4-door over on the ADV website I think...nice little cars, I may have a line on a 71 2door in its original baby blue paint...needs a total restoration though.
