Greetings! First Post!

New owner of a US-based Yamaha Racing Yellow 1985 RZ500 with 49K kilos on the odo!

Loved this machine since I first laid eyes on one in 1984 as a 15-year old kid back in South Africa!

Dream come true for me to finally have one!

How do I attach pics!?

Welcome to the group.
I bought my RZV from Linex Yamaha (JHB) brand new in '85 and still have it with me today. Like you say... childhood dreams!

Lekker indeed, but I miss home - fortunately I get to go home pretty often (with family still in Pretoria and with all of the Alfa Romeo activities...)

Yes, the yellow one on CL.

Thanks for the link to post - a link - where's the bloody "Attachments" button to post pics on this BB!? Much simpler!

Finally figured out the picture posting thing on this forum...

Here are some shots of the standard street bike! I posted some shots of the new race bike rebuild project addition under the Custom Projects forums...
