    New to this site old to motorcycling...32+ yrs ridin street machines mostly Yamahas...In fact the first bike that I learned to ride proper was a mid '70's Yam XS650 Heritage.Bike was not for a beginner mainly because my friend the owner had raked out the front fork chopper style and installed a trigger clutch which basically means theres no friction point....give it enough gas let out the clutch and hold on as you get instantly launched out of a shotgun...once I learned it was a fun ride...I 've had a # of Yamahas since...'78XS400,'80XS1100,'81XS1100,'82XJ750Maxim,'82XJ1100Maxim,'84KawNinja900,'86YamFJ1200,'91FJ1200,'95HondaST1100.
    Of these I still own the '81 XS1100...'82 XJ1100 and the '95 Hon ST1100.And while this site is for XJs' dont forget that the 1100 XJs' share the same geneology with the XS1100...the best production motorcycle ever made :wink: Atached is a pertinent photo of my '82 XJ1100 that is named MadMax.
