I've got the boxer cup, two 50cc mopeds, the PCX and a second car on it so I suppose it's a twelve wheeler policy

I had one of the first VFRs it munched ts way through three sets of cams and an entire bottom end in the first year of ownership.
I've been quite unlucky with Hondas...

Current ones are massively better forreliability than the old bevel jobs.
Still wouldn't buy one though, scooters for me now.

The previous picture of the Yamaha MT-01 is 3 years old, and has had quite a few additions to it. Heres a photo I took today. The bike was not imported into the USA due to some patent dispute RE the rear suspension. It has a Warrior V twin, pushrod engine of 1670cc. Geared to do 3000 rpm at 90 mph, and the sound is something special. 8)
