What's THE Bike?


Which bike should be The One? The two-wheeled vehicle to which all should be compared? For me, it's the 1982 and 1983 Yamaha xz550, AKA Vision. It happens to be the first bike I rode on the road.

Somehow, there's a unique phenomenon that takes place in the brain, the minute you go for your first ride. The bike creates a permanent scar in the brain and that will forever define a perfect moment.

Now 25 years old, my ride's still providing me with hair-raising excitment everytime I take it out for a spin...

Not.
