    Between 1992 and 1995, I had an Africa Twin 750 RD04. One night I had a horrible dream. I woke up convinced I had traded the Africa Twin in for a Diversion 900. I fairly raced down to the garage to make sure I actually hadn't. I don't doubt they are good bikes, though.

    Same colour as the one I had. Loved it. The weight maybe not so much.

    Looks like this bike was ridden hard and put to bed wet. Never garaged I'd say. Sad when folks dont have more love for their bike. Still, if it's a true Yamaha it should preform well for its age.😘
