SOme of you might remember this..I found some pics from the fire that happened at the local YAMAHA dealer back in June03.
I saw the smoke 5 miles away and I knew it was bad. dont remember exactly but around 40 -50 (mostly new) Yamaha's were burnt to a crisp.The fire burned for hrs. nothing was left but warped skeletons.
,,Tri-Z Jim felt a great disturbance in the force on that day =]

I tried to get whatever I could.The dealer couldnt sell or give anything due to insurance regulations.Most of the metal,frames,exausts,axles,etc. were so hot from the fire that they were melted and deformed. The thousands of metric bolts lost there temper making the metal soft. After the insurance company took thier pictures,the pile of junk was hauled to the scrapyard.
