Hey I went to Book Barn with the misses and as she was looking at some book I poped over to the motorcycle section. I was looking at one book and there was a motorcycle in there that I found realy interesting......I have forgotten the name and it is realy starting to annoy me now......all I can say is that it had a sort of swingarm instead of front forks......and that it was the first mass production bike to have a differnet front end.....also I'm sure it was a Yamaha and it was called something with QTC in it for Quick Tyre Change.....If anyone can tell me what bike this is I would appriciate it greatly.
