Recently this beautiful, completely standard Yamaha XS1100 turned up in the Netherlands. Not restored, just in its original condition. A very proud possession!.
My old friend Pete Lovell from the UK just mailed some interesting background information about the Yamaha TX750 Endurance Racer he rode together with Pete Davies, in 1973.
Already in November 1969 the Director of Mitsui Maschinen GmbH in Germany, the late Mr. H. Brethauer, travelled to Japan to witness the tests of the XS1 and discuss specifications for the European Market.
