Just outta curiosity I keep wondering if the r5 was ever used in a Hollywood movie?...I keep thinking of this movie I saw many many years ago it was a sort of biography of Bruce Lee and I swear I thought he was riding one or maybe it was at least a 70's era Yamaha.

In the opening few minutes of 'On Any Sunday' there is a guy in a suit riding a white and gold DS7.  And in the Amazon series 'Wayne', the main characters head from Boston to Ocala, Fl on what looks like an R5 or DS7.  although it is a bit of a bodge bike as the sidecovers look to be off a different bike.

@ drew, thats an RD200 actually in 'wayne' which makes it even more ridiculous.

^ thank you very much!

Decals finally came in, really happy with them. I reproduced these off a picture so they may not be 100% but good enough for me :)

Min order required me to get like 12 sets. lol. but was pretty cheap overall.

Those look good! Who did you use? I was looking for someone to possibly reproduce a NLA decal.

Damn I should get another R5.  Marc what kind of shocks are those?

thx

They are actually 2015? ish take off new yamaha SR400 shocks. I just added the ring below for some color goofing around one night off a set of cheap RFY's i had laying around. I do have a set of progressives but TBH, these work pretty well.

You sure about that phone number?

Factory Pipe Products is, and was located about 100mi north of San Francisco, in Ukiah, CA.

Should be 707 area code. 🤷🏻�♂️
