was a Yamaha SR-500 single. Reliable,handled really well and
looked like a 1950's English bike. I loved that "Thumper". Had
a nice cheat. Valve Lifter.
Have not rode for some years.
Thanks guys for the memories.

I never had a problem with the 500 except as you say the chrome.
I unfortunately won't be riding any more due to an extremely bad spine.
The triple by-pass op end of last year made it a lot worse.

Life throws some curves at you. I am very lucky to
be still here. I do wish I could ride again though.
That Yamaha sure looks nice.
Regards Anthin.
PS. Hope I make it to 80.
