Hey everyone!
I have been thinking of getting a bike for a few years now, and last night was the night it finally happened.
I was originally going to get something smaller, like a 400, but then i was thinking of the woman, as well as i'll want to take longer trips and this will be more comfortable on the county roads/highways..
Its just about winter here so I wont be able to ride it until spring, but that doesn't mean I can't detail the heck out of it as well as make sure its running in tip-top shape.
However, it made it cheaper and there were much more to choose from vs. buying one in spring.
The bike is a 1983 Yamaha Maxim 750, with 14,304miles on it.
Everything looks to be in great shape, it runs smooth, shifts smooth, and it looks pretty good too
I took the front fender and side covers off to clean them in my dorm, as the buddy whose garage i am storing it in doesent have a heater or good lighting..
Oh! and I will get some better pics tomorrow, I finally got my gf's dslr to take some pictures with vs the crappy phone picture. I'll be working on cleaning the bike over winter so i'll post pics of the progress here.
I'm just freakin STOKED! :yahoo: :yahoo:
The luggage rack and back rest is going to be coming off too.
When all is said and done, I'm going for this - clean and classy.
