Two RZ500

[GoldOxide_imp]

Goldie, stop telling how old we are! LOL! I miss that little RZ350 so bad! there's nothing like a street bike you have to kick start! *big grin*

My brain is sending me 30 year-old-like messages. I am so happy I can vividly still remember these.

I was born in 93 but I appreciate classic bikes. My first bike was a 93 yamaha XJ600 Seca (Diversion in Europe) - i still have it and also a 94 now. And my second bike was an 81 KZ440 LTD. (Still have that one too).

I love working and maintaining older bikes. Most guys my age have no idea how to work on a carburetor let alone the rest of the bike. I love how those bike have no computers and much less wires

That is pretty awesome to read mvk24.

In '93 I was riding on top of elevators at 1800 meters per minute engineering a pre-torque sensor for the motor controller. Yamaha was the my preferred brand of bike of the day. I once had an '82 Seca 550.

Not sure about the Seca-to-Fazer relationship, but one thing for sure was the 1986 Yamaha Fazer had the same engine as the then coveted Yamaha FZ750. Inline-4 20 valve purebred lump-o-fun. At the time, it beat pretty well all other production 750s.



I don't recall the Seca line being able to do stuff like that, unless one is talking about the short-fated Yamaha Seca 650 Turbo.
