wow Im way down the list, only 3.
 
2007 FZ6 my first new bike, my first love
2013 WR250R we get dirty together
2015 FJ 09 finally getting to know this one a little better, I suspect I can keep it a while :)
 
my only non Yammie was My Suzi 2012 DL650. A good, solid ride but lacking in the tuning forks excitement. At least in my 2c.
2015 Red FJ 09
2013 WR250R - little boy blue - sold
2012 DL650 V Strom - sold
2007 FZ6 - sold

I'm hoping this is in response to the post with the picture of the RZ350. If not can someone please tell me how to respond to an individuals post. Anyway, the old Yamaha RD350/400 2 strokes were awesome bikes. They were fast and handled great for bikes from the 70's. They could embarrass a lot of bigger bikes for sure.

I loved my FZR but it was not meant to be a street bike. The ergonomics were brutally uncomfortable, first gear was sky high, and insurance was virtually unobtainable.
 
I've also owned two Hondas, two BMWs, two Suzukis, and one Kawasaki.
