Okay, that sounds like the makings of a good trivia question. When were Yamahas white?

Piece of cake. A hint: the factory bikes went blue a year before the production models.

My 1980 YZ125 was yellow. Dave the first year was 1985. I saw after the fact that I hit "Post" too late.

The white is cool the only bad part is it will be twice as hard to keep looking pretty.

My first big bike was a yellow YZ400, none of us raced then, but it was still cool because all my friends were still on their RM80's. I couldn't tell you what year that was though, had to of been in the very late 70's?
I had that bike along time, ended up trading it in on a Honda V65 Magna, then traded that Magna in on a Yamaha VMax before switching back over to dirt bikes and going with the KX500's.
Seems stupid that white plastic costs more than blue? Isn't it about time we got some real improvements rather than just new plastic and graphics as a motivation to upgrade to a newer model year?

Go read the specs. The 250F has some handling changes, maybe some motor changes (I'm still groggy, can't remember). All I know is someone near and dear is already begging for the 2007 model's go figure!

I hope they got there valve problems fix! The 06 YZF250's had some problems and had to have a recall on certain V.I.N. numbers. Having valve problems in the worst!
That white limited addition is on cool looking machine!
