Thanks, I loved the yellow Yamahas. Mine is a rider/racer so it's not perfect, but it's good enough to get the idea ?

I had me a set of those AXO air boots in that exact color cost me like every cent I had as a kid as my old folks said I had to pay for them myself and at almost $300 in the 80’s that was some serious coin.

This is not mine but I was aware of it back in 74/75. There was also a monoshock model with the shock mounted horizontal under the engine that was brought into Norm Reeves Honda to show us when I worked there.
