At the end of 1972 the Dutch Photographer Jan Heese, who was at that time Yamaha's "House" Photographer, took a lot of pictures for the coming season.

Jan Heese took this very nice picture of Jarno and his wife together with yours truly near the river Amstel in Amsterdam. That TX750 is the bike I rode in the very first long distance test to Switzerland. But that is a different story!
