Just before I joined Yamaha Motor N.V. in October 1971 I had purchased a brand new Yamaha XS1F, the famous candy orange one. It vibrated even more than the British machines I had owned, but it stayed together and with some Dutch KONI shockabsorbers kept me safely on the road for 53.000 km in 2 years. My brother joined me for a short vacation in Switzerland, where he made this picture.
