Thats pretty cool.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.
Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....
I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

i didn't even know they had motorcycles back when the dinosaurs were around. 
very cool pics, MN needs a desert and some sand dunes. and mountains. i especially like the shot of the house on the edge of the cliff.

Man, the 1971 San Luis Obispo Yamaha dealer is awesome. I was six then and Kearney Mesa (San Diego) Yamaha was about like that when I first walked aroud in there. My buddies and I would make the pilgramage ride over the highway overpass on our bicycles and bug the dealership guys and get stickers. "Fun Bike Center' was just down the road and they were the Honda dealer. We did that into my teen years.
The Yama dealer guys were always cool to us, the Honda dealer..not so much.
Funny, when I was able to buy bikes..I didn't even consider Honda.
My first yamaha streetbike was a '71 CS3C (200cc parallel twin two stroke).

AWESOME! Nothing like bringing back old memories or yester years.

Ah, pictures of riding in NJ.
Me likes the TR350............
Which one are you , George? The one with glasses? In the pic of the trials there's a guy with long hair and glasses that could pass for a younger version of you.
