I used to have an r6. Still have Other yamaha products. 660 rhino, banshee.
 
This one isn't quite as fun, but it has come in handy!

Yeah 3 bikes right now, but none of them Yamahas.
A Triumph Daytona, an Aprilia and a Husqvarna 450 SMR (supermoto). Got my eye on a mint Ducati 948 to add to the collection. Shhhh! Still gotta inform my CFO - the wife!

Had many many Yamahas over the years. Raced MX and SX for many many moons, all on Yamaha 125 & 250 2smokers and 250 & 450 4strokes. Road raced on Yamaha FZRs and YZFs. But now the European bikes have gotten a hold of me. Probably picking up a Yamaha Grizzly atv for my son next month or so. At least that'll be a Yamaha.

Sweet!
 
Had an R6 also, miss it every spring when it starts to warm up and I hear someone wind a sportbike out.
 
I've had 2. First was a YZ 426 F, and currently own a YZ 450 F. Do some local hare scrambles every now and then. Kind of backed it down when I tore my ACL, MCL, and miniscus in 2007 hitting a tree in 3rd gear wide open....DSC01368.JPG Trinity Race.jpg
 
Pair of polaris 50cc ATV for 3 year old and brave adults. Magna is my brothers.

Also 1982 Yamaha 750 with sidecar, we use it around town with boy ride it to store and the park, looks rough but runs good. He waves at everybody we pass.IMG_20130926_144330_514.jpg cooper sidecar.jpg

Always take a pic the day they are new, they never look as good again! My 2016 Yamaha YZ450f. In the past have had multiple 450's, and a Yzf 600 years ago. We mainly motocross in the spring before its hot enough to boat.
