01/09/11 - Happy New Year again, everyone.  I'm still here, this site is still here, my little Radian is still here, and ya know what?  The Yamaha Radian turns Twenty Five years old this year!  Depending on ones interpretation, I suppose that means one could call a 1986 Radian in good condition either an antique or a classic.  I for myself prefer Classic.  In any case, Happy 25th Birthday, Yamaha Radian!

01/09/11 - Bruce's 86 Radian - Bruce sent these photos of his awesome 1986 Radian.  He's done a heck of a lot of work on it, and it looks fantastic.  Nicely done, Bruce.  Thanks for sharing!

02/27/11 - Jefferson's Radian - Jefferson sent some photos of the Radian he bought new in 1986.  One of them was taken on prom night showing him wearing his white tux.  Cool, Jefferson!  Thanks for sharing.

03/13/11 - John R's Radian - John has restored and customized a '89 Radian.  He fitted it with a V-Max headlight and has made some other changes to make a beautiful bike.  Thanks, John!

05/15/11 - Griff's Radian - Griff sent some pictures of his newly purchased Radian.  It already had the pod filters and was properly jetted and runs great.  That's not an easy task, so already one step ahead!  Thanks, Griff!

05/15/11 - John L's Radian - John's Radian is for sale!  It is in absolutely beautiful condition, and even has an original Yamaha fairing.  He's looking for a bike a bit larger, so this could be a great opportunity for someone in his area (Lawton, Oklahoma - 70 miles Southwest of Oklahoma City).
