    Oh and happy 50th Yamaha.

    ok I'll have another go

    As far as I am aware Yamaha did not make a two stroke triple Motorcycle that was mass produced, did I cover my arse enough then?

    I've only ever heard of that colour scheme reffered to as the Kenny Roberts colour scheme so you may be right, how did it come about then?
