My New Ride...

[justin]

It's been a while since I've posted (some of you that I'm close to know why, for the rest of you, I'm not going to get into the details...)...

I recently got a new ride, as the train commute from where I'm at right now is KILLING me...

I have recently purchased a 1983 Yamaha Maxim 400... I've always wanted a motorcycle, and after a few weeks of looking around (and calling and emailing), I found one...

Low km's (21,000), in excellent condition, and I just got my M1 this morning. I'm going to pick up the bike (as well as a helmet and other gear) today or tomorrow, just waiting for the insurance policy to take effect later this afternoon...

I'll bring the bike out later this week or next to a meet, weather depending.

Let the fun begin!

Nice bike Justin, pm me if you ever want to go riding.

Do they still make bikes that look anything like that anymore? All the Japanese bikes I see these days look like those racing bikes painted in some glow-in-the-dark colour.

A friend of mine bought a similar Yahama bike last year. Also an early 80's model.

Nice ride Justin. Wouldn't it have been cheaper if you just signed your organ donor card? :chuckle

This is a good starter "cruiser" bike. You can pick one up brand new for about $5000.00.

Well it's not a road bike, but a rare 1985 Yamaha BW200.
(200cc dirt bike with atv tires; 12" wide rear)

Here's a pic of my rides (yes its me riding):
