Wow, ephrata pa brings back memories.

I was a kid when I first saw a yellow bombardier ds650 on the showroom floor of Sports'n'Turf

Funny how things come full circle.

Have fun out there.  Beautiful country.

Everyone thinks Chuck Norris is bad, but Chuck Norris has not meet Lucky either.  Lucky will round house kick Chuck back to 1969 and pop a wheel with the 1st sandcast while shotgunning a PBR!

The entire area is great riding territory, as long as one keeps the eye out for Amish buggys..Confucius say, keep eye out for buggy or else ride up horse's butt.

Didn't see it, I had the white/pink 400F if you saw that and an SOHC FOUR white/red shirt.  Would have been nice to meet up with a forum member.  Larry

Think my previous attempt at a post failed due to too many photos.  Try again.  There may have been a thousand bikes there. A large majority were Harleys- of which every bike looked alike.  You know, shiny as can be as though it were only ridden on a grueling 50 mile journey from breakfast to event to lunch after. Half the Harley riders wore half helmets, the other half no helmet. 

Next largest contingent were the crotch rockers-every bike looked alike.  Like a transformer .

A wee bit smaller grouping were the well-to-do Beemer rider on his Dakar style bike that looked the part but had a super clean, very expensive bike that looked as though it never saw dirt. ???

Was that a model back then?  I worked at a Honda/Yamaha shop but don't remember that at all.  It is sharp to say the least...Larry

That's a SECA - you can barely make it out under the side covers.  Don't know a thing about the front fairing.

I do like it though.

I know it is a 750 Seca(I unfortunately had a 650 Seca), was wondering if it was a Yamaha model or aftermarket put together.  I had a Vetter Quicksilver fairing on my 650 - the appearance was markedly similar to that ST fairing...
