    They dropped them after one year because they introduced the FJ1100 in 1984. The Seca 900 is a great all around motorcycle, thats why I buy all I can to insure that I`ll have one to ride for years to come.

    The Seca 900 was a Showroom Bike. 1000 were sold in the US. Major Mover's of Yamaha Freight got 2 to sell. Lesser performing dealerships got 1.
    Some got none and had to take an order for those that Yamaha stored on the West Coast.

    I got one.
    Love it, love it, love it.

    You just had to say that didn't you!!!??? :D
    They are very sweet looking bikes and I've got to admit I'm finding the 700 Maxim a little buzzy for my tastes. Piece o cake to ride. Great riding position for traffic but find myslef trying to shift into sixth at 45 mph. Come 70 mph and it is better. Go figure. I think this is poll material. More to come but not tonight. Got up way too early today.
