No its not a motorized bicycle, but the first motorized bikes lead to its creation and since I have three motorized bikes and one 150cc China scoot I figured why not get Japanese made 2 wheeler too, got a great deal on it and just wanted to share a couple of pics with my MB-in Buds and/or Budettes.
It's an 1982 Yamaha XJ650 Maxim, 19,391 original miles and very well maintained, not bad for almost 30 years old.
Yamaha Specs are 71HP @ 9400 RPM and 1/4 mile time of just a tad over 12 seconds, 55-60MPG if driven right and will get me to town a bit quicker when I need too, I just wanted something that I could go farther on and take the wife with me if she wants to go on a road trip out to our local lake or something.
Anyway just wanted to share with you guys and gals, been thinking about a design for a trailer that I could put at least one or maybe 2 of my MB's on and pull behind the Maxim..... that would be very cool......huh?![Thumbs Up (^) (^)](https://motorbicycling.com/images/smilies/thumbsupsmileyanim.gif)
Peace, map
