This bike (ex California) has recently been added to John McKay's collection at SpringLynne Motorcycles.
I reckon it's cool.

It's a Yamaha YD off road racer - the bike compared to piano's in "On Any Sunday II".

If my research is correct, this model evolved into 1960's "Catalina" & "Big Bear" road bikes, including a Street Scrambler version that surely must be Yamaha's first Adventure bike, even before the DT1?
SpringLynne have a great collection of classic bikes & well worth a visit: http://www.springlynnemotorcycles.co.nz/index.php/collection/
