Besides my GZ, I have a 1980 Yamaha XS 650 Special. It is almost ready to go back on the rode, mid June I'd say. Lot's of work bringing it back to life. I'm only allowed two at this time.

Resurrecting an old thread, as times change, so do our bikes.
After a year and a half or so, the GZ was replaced by a 2005 S50, then a 2006 Kawasaki Ninja 250 came along and was added (a real fun bike to ride), then that one left after a year and was replaced with a pristine 1990 Honda PC 800 to sit alongside the S 50. Maybe looking at a bike like Busyweb has- a Yamaha TW200 to play with.

:2tup:
What else have you other guys been up to?

I have owned in order of appearance

1977 YZ125 (lots of fun, but had to sell)
1983 CB550SC (Fast little bike, the powerband at 10,000-12,000rpm was ridiculous - sold this one too)
1974 GT380 (two stroke triple - my baby - she needs very little to be finished)
1975 GT250 (wife's bike - she never rides - just needs painted and then finished)
1978 TS185 (bought it for $65 delivered with title - runs great plenty of pep! - would like to get her street worthy)
1977 RM370 (still haven't got this one put together yet - only bike I haven't ridden)
1972 CB500Four Honda Supersport (She was pretty! Original up-swept pipes and all - not quite regretting selling her just yet)
2005 GZ250 (I got to sit on it

. Previous owner grenaded the top end - still looking for parts just yet)

Saw this thread again. Since last on here I have added the Yamaha TW200, same as Busyweb's, with a few additions on it. Nice dualsport, like a Jeep. I'll get picks of these up here one of these days so you can see what they look like.
