    It's a 50cc Bike painted-out in a Black Paint scheme.

    Maxim's are XJ-Bikes with much bigger engines and shaft drive.

    The room where it happened
    It's actually a special Yamaha factory-produced "Midnight Special" RX50 (??) that was made available to some of their larger dealerships in 1983 in order to further promote the XJ750 Midnight Maxim. From what I've heard, there were less than 100 made. Actually very rare, and very neat. If that one were half the price I would jump all over it!
