A friend just picked this up...

"Big, multi-page pull out section this week. 50 years of Yamaha development, they trumpet. Lots of bikes, many that never sold but the MCN guys think they were great. Get to 1984 and, curiously, the only bike of significance released that year was the RD500 according to them (which sold about 50 units in the UK, mainly for track use). Not a mention of the mighty FJ11/1200 range that was one of Yamahas biggest sellers until 1995, or the XJR12/1300 or the FJR's intro in 2000 and beyond.
I despair!!"

He's just narked that the FJ/FJRs aren't the stars of the show, I expect....

I didn't learn on a Yamaha either. My first 2 bikes were Suzukis. I learnt to ride the first one when I collected it from the shop.
