Yamaha 650 twins

Did anyone here, apart from me and Bonwick, ever own one? Classic Bike
is looking for someone who had one way back when, with a period photo.

I bought a Z550 once as a box of bits, sorted out the wiring harness,
powder coated the frame, painted the tank and side panels gloss
black[1] and then saw it all rust to nothing when my garage
flooded[2].
So, after a while, I got a large cardboard box, chucked everything in
it and gave it away to someone who kept in in the box for a couple of
years and then he passed the box of bits onto someone else.
Does that count?

[1]Back then, I did have an idea about how bikes worked
[2]Sadly, I obviously didn't have an idea about plumbing 'cos the
attic space above the garage was where the water tank lived and you
wouldn't believe how much water is contained in a cold water tank. It
was worse than usual 'cos I was on holiday when it happened

(See this month's issue and the pic of Champ, avec hair, and his Z650,
for inspiration)

I think Hog's still got one...

Anything to boost the sales figures. I'll pop into WHS for a browse.
