My obsession with the Yamaha Niken GT motorcycle

I’ve been obsessed with the Yamaha Niken since I saw it and then sat on one in a showroom. Without duplicating what I mentioned on the About Niken Peeps page, I’ve stalked and researched the bike all over the internet and just had to make a website about it. I wrote in the What is a Niken? post the reasons why I like the bike.

Motorcycles I used to have

I had these three motorcycles at different times in the UK when I was young. These are photos of the actual bikes.

Now I’m older, I feel I can appreciate bikes more. I need to save up some pennies!
