    Dick Mann also built some pretty highly coveted Yamaha TT500 frames...had his name badge on them as well. Just found these web links in fact: https://lt-racing.com/html/dms_tt500_versions.html https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1976-yamaha-tt500/

    I know that shockwave pic is fake, but it doesnt take away from that feeling I got watching when he opened that capsule door and stepped out on the platform. I was watching that live and it literally put me in awe when I saw how high he truly was....wow. I had a great Air Force friend of mine...

    Been there, done that....had a guy I pulled out of a C-130 tank and drug him out to a snow bank in Alaska for some fresh air. He kept telling me over and over "My nose tastes blue". Ah yes, the good ole days.

    Good looking scoot...looks like a legitimate ad judging by the background in pics (never know who's a scammer now days) https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1005094708255837

    @Jim Did you pre-oil that clutch cover gasket to make it re-usable? I've never actually done it myself, but I've heard that it works well that way?

    Just Ride.

    Migraines suck...bad. Suffer from them quite often myself (too many years in jet fuel me thinks). Imatrex works wonders...

    For Sale - 1977 XS750D

    I had that same bike (78 with burgundy inset), same color even in High School back in the late 70's/early 80's. Great bike...it was my only transportation, year round in Washington State no less. 😲
