I miss my 86 FZ 750. But I didn't have room for 2 bikes, and hardly rode it at the time.

VMAX Baby! Now that's where it's at. Yamaha has added alot to motorcycling. Look at the V-Rod. Under seat tank, airbox under a fake tank, twin shocks. It only took harley 15 or so years to catch up. ABS on the FJ, EFI on the old fzr motor in the GTS1000, and NOBODY like the exup valves supposedly (except the people who owned bikes with it). Now EFI is all but mandatory, and exhaust valves are in everything. Everybody thinks Honda and Suzuki are the major players, but YAMAHA has always been ahead, and has always been a trend setter.
