    Just out of curiosity, you don't happen to know the owner history of that YSR do you? I owned one briefly in the mid-90's..same color.

    I bought it from a guy in Portsmouth, NH.

    That's funny, the bike felt even smaller to me while I was sitting on it than it looks in the pic.

    Yes. You should let him ride it. I want to ride it at some point too. That thing is mint. I'll trade you.

    Yes. Just not inspected.

    Let me tell you it is an experience riding it on the street too. You don't sit up as high as cars and the brakes SUCK!

    I find myself trying to look REALLY BIG on the thing so people will see me.

    Might relegate this to mostly pit bike status...

    I think that might be more dangerous to other drivers. I mean, if I saw you riding that thing on the street Id start laughing so hard I might hit a telephone pole or something.
