    Thought I should Introduce myself.

    Rory From Regina, Sask. Canada.
    1982 Yamaha maxim 650cc
    I bought it in 2000 from my cousin, rode it until last summer when it was backed over while parked and spent this spring fixing it up.

    I Spent the last 2 months polishing parts, slapping some paint on it, changing jets and just trying to get it to look good and run better.

    Some Pics
