Yamaha

Once upon a time in Deals Gap.

A very nice Yamaha R5 from last years local show.

From my “Riding Into History” archives. If I could drop 40 pounds something like this would probably be my daily rider.  Love the radial heads.

Started out with a  1973 Yamaha RD350 we move the swingarm pivot points back about three inches and  put a RZ rear end on swingarm disk brakes and a after market Fox race shock mono shock. We went from a 73 twin shock to a modified RZ race rear end with a 6 and 1/2 inch stretch to the rear end. Vintage Avon front clip modified RD400 tank and a vintage Ducati tail section
