XXXX Yamaha XZXXX Vision 

Was runner but has been laid up for few years. Very low miles, just over XXXX from new (old MOT's present to verify). Bike has history, receipts, previous MOT's etc. 

A great bike which was way ahead of its time when released, hence the name "Vision". Nice v-twin engine. 

Will require some TLC to get it back to it's former glory! Nice project for someone to take on as these obscure early Japanese bikes are becoming quite desirable. May even be worth more in spares.

Only made these between XXXX-XXXX so quite rare to find good one these days. At the time this was one of Yamaha's most hi-tech bikes ever made. Chucking out XX BHP with its XX degree v-twin, twin cam, valves per cylinder driver by two cam chains (one each side), twin down draught pump-action carbs and shaft driven. It proved too costly to make so production only lasted years. Despite thrashing Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki cylinder bikes of that period in all the road tests. In the USA one of these bikes won the Forumla (XXXcc) AMA Battle of The Twins Championships in XXXX and XXXX beating Ducati, Laverda amongst other eligible twins. Fantastic bike!
