Re:Who has the oldest Roadstar? 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
This might give an idea of at least the 1600's: got this from the NHSTA site for the recalls If you add the 2 recalls together there are aprox 55 thousand 1600's, I would take a guess of about 20k bikes a year are made. wow, still alot out there that have not been repaired.

Owner notification began on September 2,2003 for recall 03V-309 and on October 10, 2006 for recall 06V-397. Through the second Quarter of 2008, Yamaha reports that of the 26,829 vehicles involved in the mv-309 campaign, 4,063 have not been remedied, and that of the 19,797 vehicles involved in the 06V-397 campaign, 11,203 have not been remedied

Yeah, he said he just bought it and thought it was real old. So he pulls the ownership out of his wallet and its number 9. I shed a tear of defeat.
He said he wasn't a member here yet.
