I just woke the Yamashaker up after a long winters’ sleep. I installed a new battery, cranked it twice, turned the key on and started it on the first kick. It’s kind of amazing what those automotive coils will do even with old gas.

I put a little air in the tires and rode it a few miles out on the highway and through the country.  I only ran it up to about 85, but it sure ran nice.

I’d almost  forgotten how much fun that old beast is. I love that thing.
